VA - New Orleans Funk Vol. 01 - 04 [2000-2016]

The excellent long dormant series of New Orleans R&B compilations from Soul Jazz Records has been resuscitated here. Soul Jazz Records ‘New Orleans Funk’ series of releases really define the unique sound of New Orleans. New Orleans long musical journey begins at Congo Square with the creation of jazz, the original Creole culture clash of African heritage and European instrumentation.

This is the definitive collection of New Orleans Funk featuring acknowledged masters next to some of the earlier artists who shaped the meaning of funk. The albums here are also filled with many rare, sought after and undiscovered funk tracks. They cover the period from the emergence of New Orleans Funk in the early 1960's through to the mid 1970's. The record is an essential part of anyone in any way interested in Funk's record collection. It has some vital ingredients in it that you can't find elsewhere. With the sound of the New Orleans Funeral March Bands, Mardi Gras Indian Tribes and Saturday Night Fish Fries all as inspiration New Orleans Funk developed into a unique sound. New Orleans is a port town. Originally owned by the French, this was where many slaves were brought from the West Indies. Many of these slaves came from Haiti and brought with them the religion of Voodoo and its drums and music. It became one of the first parts of America to develop a strong African-American culture leading to the invention of Jazz in the early 1900's. A main feature of Jazz in New Orleans were the Jazz Funeral Marching bands. Solemn Brass bands accompanying a coffin would, on burial, be joined by a second line of drummers and dancers which would turn the event into a celebration of the spirit cutting free from earth. This African tradition is strong in New Orleans and still goes on to this day. The backline drums play a syncopated style that is neither on the beat nor the off-beat. It is these rhythms that are the basis of New Orleans Funk. Reviews: "A Perfect Primer For Funk Fans" Q (Top 5 albums of the year) "Probably the finest compilation that Soul Jazz has released.

MUSIC DOCUMENTARY #25

Summer Of Soul ...Or When The Revolution Could Not Be Televised  MP4

Summer of Soul (...Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised) is an American documentary film directed by Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson about the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival. It had its world premiere at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival on January 28, 2021 and had a limited theatrical release in the United States on June 25, 2021, before expanding on July 2, 2021 theatrically by Searchlight Pictures and digitally via Hulu. It received acclaim from critics, with praise aimed at the footage restoration.

The documentary examines the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival, which was held at Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park) in Harlem and lasted for six weeks. Despite having a large attendance and performers such as Stevie Wonder, Mahalia Jackson, Nina Simone, The 5th Dimension, The Staple Singers, Gladys Knight & the Pips, and Sly and the Family Stone, the festival was seen as obscure in pop culture, something that the documentarians investigate.

VA - Aussie Power Pop (A Butterboy Compilation) (6 x CD's) PART 2

AUSTRALIAN POWER POP.

VA - Aussie Power Pop (A Butterboy Compilation) (6 x CD's) 

PART 2 CD4+CD5+CD6

Power pop is one of the most enduring subgenres within rock 'n' roll, with catchy hooks and recognizable guitar riffs. Power pop is a harder type of pop-rock that combines classic rock band instrumentation - guitar, bass, drums, and occasional keyboards with catchy pop hooks highlighting the lead vocalist. 

Power Pop is a cross between the crunching hard rock of the Who (Who's Pete Townshend in 1967 conder the phrase "power pop" to describe their style of music) and the sweet melodicism of the Beatles and Beach Boys and with the ringing guitars of the Byrds. There are four main attributes of the Power Pop sound: Hook-driven short songs, Jangley guitars, Personal lyrical subjects and a strong overlap with New Wave.

Although several bands of the early 70's established the sound of power pop, it wasn't until the late 70' s that a whole group of like-minded bands emerged. What tied all of these bands together was their love of the three-minute pop single.  Power-pop bands happened to emerge around the same time of punk, so they were swept along with the new wave because their brief, catchy songs fit into the post-punk aesthetic.  During the early '80s, power pop died away as a hip movement, and nearly all of the bands broke up. However, in the late 80's, a new breed of power pop began to form. The new bands blended traditional power pop with alternative rock sensibilities and sounds.  While these bands gained the attention of hip circles, many of the original power-pop groups began recording new material and releasing it on independent labels. In the early 90's compilation series gathered together highlights from these re-activated power poppers, as well as new artists that worked in a traditional power-pop vein. Throughout the early and '90's, this group of independent, grass-roots power-pop bands gained a small but dedicated cult following

Australia developed its own style of Power pop and whilst similar in attributed to worldwide power pop stills selected its own flavour. Here are 120 tracks, over two volumes, of euphoric power-pop brilliance from down under.

UK RIPPLES

VA - Ripples Volumes 01 - 08 [1999 - 2020] (8 x CD's)

This series by Castle Music and Sequel Records  presents 8 volumes of 60's West Coast Harmony Sound as heard in the UK. The series never runs out of steam offering up some true UK gems, some well know artists and many generally obscure/rare British tracks. A fabulous mixture of Psychedelic Rock, Folk Rock, Sunshine Pop, Pop Rock, Vocal, Ballad, Beat, Freakbeat, Soul, Soft Rock, Surf, and Psychedelic Pop and Folk Baroque sounds. The first 6 CD's have 30 tracks each of generally obscure 60's British pop in a clean, bright, often cloying style with lots of cheerful vocal harmonies. Lots of gems here, a very solid listen all the way through. Excellent collection if you like 60's pop with an edge then this is for you. The last two discs follow the same pattern but only have 29 tracks each. 

Included in this series is:

VA - Ripples Vol. 01, Look at the Sunshine (British Summer Tyme Pop) [1999]
