I would say mid-to- late 60's (Jimmy Smith, Hugh Masekela, Grant Green,
Lonnie Smith, Ruben Wilson, Jimmy Mc Griff, Brother Jack Mc Duff, Donald
Byrd, Joe Henderson, Earl & Houston Pearson, Eddie Harris, Art Blakey,
Herbie Hancock, Rotary Connection, etc.) to jazz- funky, soulful & latin
70's (Cold Blood, Alice Clark, Johnny Hammond, Lonnie Liston Smith,
Blackbyrds, Doug Carn, Weldon Irvine, Milton "Spaced" Wright, 24 Carat
Black, Three Pieces, Roy Porter, Asha Putli, Cymande, 100% Pure Poison,
Eddie Henderson, Roy Ayers, RAMP, Funk Factory, Funk Inc.,
Side- Effect, Ice, S.O.U.L., Hidden Strength, Rasputin's Stash,
Fatback, Kay-gee's, Mighty Ryders, Sons & Daughters of Lite, Newban,
early Kool & the Gang, Ballin' Jack, Odyssey, Edwin Starr, Jon Lucien,
Terry Calier, Don Blackman, Kelle Patterson, Sylvia Striplin, Carmen
Mcrae, Betty Davis, Bettiy Wright, Marlena Shaw, Minnie Ripperton,
Patrice Rushen, early Pointer Sisters, 80's Ladies, Steve Parks, Manzel,
Family Tree, Funk Fusion Band, James Mason, Oneness of Ju Ju, Fela Kuti,
Black Blood, Manu Dibango, Robin Kenyatta, Madrake Som, Mombassa 2, Fat
Larry's Band, Joe Bataan, Harlem River Drive, Eddie Palmieri, Ocho,
Candido, Viva Brazil, First Gear, Danser's Inferno (rare!!!!), Mongo
Santamaria, Black Sugar, Francisco Aguabella, Tamba Trio, The Aquarians,
Chakachas, Jayme Marques, Marcos Valle, Ed Lincoln, Airto, etc.
Who else can unleash these gems from your memory (record collection). I
think even Gilles would be impressed with this list. Hey maybe we could
get Gilles Peterson to list his top 100 RARE Groove artists??????
I don't have the track by Danser's Inferno "Sombre Guitar?", but I
remember a cat from England playing me it in '95, along with 80's Ladies
I was amazed.
C'mon deejays, collecters, producers show us your knowledge. Who else
did I forget.
