Salah Ragab And The Cairo Jazz Band - Egyptian Jazz 2006

Artist: Salah Ragab And The Cairo Jazz Band
Title Of Album: Egyptian Jazz
Year Of Release: 2006
Label: Art Yard
Genre: Jazz, Ethnic


Drummer and multi-instrumentalist Salah Ragab was a central figure in the history of jazz in Egypt. A sometime collaborator with Sun Ra, Ragab founded the Cairo Jazz Band in 1968, the same year that he became the head of the Egyptian Military Music Department. The Cairo Jazz Band was Egypt's first big band, mixing American jazz with North African music, combining jazz instrumentation and musical style with indigenous melodies and instruments, like the nay (bamboo flute) and the baza (ramadan drum). Such musical cross-fertilization was not unusual in itself; American musicians from Sun Ra to Yusef Lateef had long been fascinated by the music of Islam and North Africa, incorporating both the instruments and musical forms of the Fertile Crescent into their work. But Salah Ragab’s music presents a topsy-turvied perspective, a view from the other side of the musical equation of West meets Middle East... / /

Akiko Tsuruga - Sweet And Funky 2007

Artist: Akiko Tsuruga
Title Of Album: Sweet And Funky
Year Of Release: Apr 2007
Label: 18th & Vine
Genre: Jazz, Bebop, Hammond Organ
Quality: MP3 / Joint Stereo

Japanese-born Akiko Tsuruga has lived in New York since 2001. Sweet and Funky is her breakthrough CD, showing that she can hold her own with virtually every other jazz organist. Her style fits well into '60s/'70s soul-jazz and hard bop styles, grooving like Charles Earland, Jimmy McGriff, Jimmy Smith and the other great organists of the era without directly copying any of them. She swings her way through standards, blues and three originals, never losing her momentum, drive or flow of rhythmic ideas. Guitarist Eric Johnson (who takes plenty of fine solos), drummer Vince Ector and percussionist Wilson "Chembo" Corniel all have plenty of experience in this type of organ group and keep the music swinging and grooving. Based on the performances on Sweet and Funky, Akiko Tsuruga ranks as one of the top organists around today and, with luck, this is only the beginning. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

Stay on the Groove (2005)

Year: 2005
Style: Funk
Country: USA


Looking for the best compilation ever? You got it!
What a cool cd. There isn’t much traditional dance - as the CD explains – it’s a compilation of what funk created.

Groove. What is it? As complex and diverse as mood; as infectious and innovative as melody and as inclusive and instinctive as rhythm itself, Groove is a term often lacking in todays MTV saturated and easily digestable pop consumerism. It is when an artist or band slips into a relaxed yet uniform swagger and things that usually wouldn't start fitting into place, it's what brings all pieces of the pie together perfectly and when everything seems so right you wish it would never end. It is also something that makes you want to shake your ass, whatever time of day it is and it is to these attributes that this compilation is dedicated.

Since the late eighties funk revival when hip hop artists truly started paying dues (and cheques!) to the masters of days gone by, funk has retained its rightful place at the forefront of modern music. Just listen to the production of the Neptunes or Timbaland to see where it fits into todays market. But it is not just within the memory banks of Akai's and million selling producers that the funk lives on?

This compilation focuses solely on modern day bands who are not just re-living but also re-defining the funk sound. Taking its title from the New Mastersounds storming opening track, the CD aims to show how these bands, whilst steeped in retro-ism, are pushing a new and exhilarating take on the blueprint laid down by seminal artists such as Eddie Bo, The Meters and of course James Brown.

Featuring tracks from artists from all corners of the globe, such as Sweden's Jaguar, Germany's Poets of Rhythm, New York's Dapkings, LA's Breakestra, The Bamboos from Australia and the UK's very own New Mastersounds and Quantic Soul Orchestra, it is also obvious to see that this is a worldwide phenomena we are talking about.'

Track List:
1. The New Mastersounds - "Stay On The Groove"
2. Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings - "What If We All Stopped Paying Taxes?"
3. Troubled Soul - "Funky Me" (Part 1 & 2)
4. The New Process - "Freedom"
5. Jaguar - "Battle Of Funk"
6. Breakestra - "Show & Prove" (Part 1 & 2)
7. Lefties Soul Connection - "Doin' The Thing"
8. Cookin On Three Burners - "Gravel Rash"

VA - The NRK Sessions Soul Afro Jazz And Latin From The Club 7 Scene

Artist: VA
Title Of Album: The NRK Sessions Soul Afro Jazz And Latin from the Club 7 Scene
Year Of Release: 2007
Label: Plastic Strip
Genre:Funk / Soul, Jazz, Latin
Style: Afro-Cuban Jazz, Jazz-Rock, Contemporary Jazz, Funk, Soul

WebSite: http://www.plasticstrip.no/

In 1970, Norway had a population of just over 3.8 million people, with a record market in accordance to that number. Genres such as soul, afro-jazz and latin were rarely recorded and therefore The Norwegian National Broadcasting Bureau (NRK) played a pivotal role for the music milieu. Since the bands didn’t have any records for NRK to play, NRK gave them studio time to record music they could broadcast. Hence, it exists recordings of artists that you never knew even existed.

The artists represented on this release were all connected to Club 7 that existed from 1963 to ’85 on different locations in Oslo. The name suggested that the intentions of the club were more than just sex and it soon became the stage for all experimental art forms in Norway. In the early days the scene was all about jazz, but soon opened up to R´n´B, psychedelica, blues, reggae and folk music. An important factor in this development was Earl Wilson, an actor from New York who in 66´ formed the first Norwegian R´n´B band, Little Earl and The Sapphires. After breaking up the group, Earl put together The Club 7 Explosion, which became an institution at the club under different names such as Little Earl & The Road Band and The Band No Name. After seeing the huge cues the band made, the management realized that R´n´B music was the new money. Karin Krog was a part of the early jazz scene but started experimenting with R´n´B after meeting the singer and pianist Arild Wikstrøm and later the R´n´B band Public Enemies at the club. Here she also met Fred Nøddelund, almost just a kid at the time, who convinced Karin to record and perform some of his arrangements, inspired by West Coast pop and soul. The cousins Magni and Geir Wentzel were both Club 7 regulars. Magni was educated as a classical guitarist in Spain and focused both on the jazz and folk scene while the pianist Geir was a pioneer on the R´n´B scene with his own orchestra and band Wentzel. He was set to record Norway’s first R´n´B LP when his collaborator suddenly died in a car crash. Theband Kjellerrockjazzbandet consisted of some of Norway’s most talented jazz and pop musicians from the groups Sapphires and Dream, and like all Club 7 musicians they played in a dozen different constellations a month. They got their name from Club 7’s director Attila Horvath, who one day needed to name the group for an ad in the paper, and the name stuck. But it wasn’t only Norwegian groups that played Club 7. The booking list is filled with big international names like Nina Simone or Keith Jarrett, and it wasn’t unusual that the guy sitting in the corner sofa next to you was Zappa or Sean Connery. One of the bands that used to visit was The Modern Sound Quintet, an afro-jazz group with musicians from the Caribbean, living in Copenhagen. They worked as session musicians and played clubs in Scandinavia and one of the regular stops was Club 7. Two mainstays on the club’s afro-jazz scene were the bands E´Olen! and Tamma, both with Gambian percussionist Miki N´Doye as backbone.Tammarefers to a talking drum from West Africa and the band was influenced by African folk music, Fela Kuti and Scandinavian jazz. The band eventually got so good at their craft that they went to tour Gambia.

Both the NRK studio productions and Club 7 fell apart during the mid eighties. Club 7 went bankrupt and the new standardized musician wages made NRK refrain from using self produced music in the broadcasts. Since Club 7 never managed to get their own recording equipment or label running, we are lucky they took the trip to NRK to record the only documents existing of one of Scandinavia’s most vibrant music scenes in the 70s.

A History Of Schema - Sabato Mezzanotte In Roppongi (2007)

Outra bela coletania de New Bossa,Bossa Jazz feita no Japao por Tsutaya tokio ,de outro exelente selo italiano Schema Records, que tem o Nicola Conte e Rasalia de Souza seus artistas mais conhecido do brasil. Artist.....: Various Artists Title......: A History Of Schema - Sabato Mezzanotte In Roppongi Compiled By Tsutaya Tokio Ropponngi Year......: 2007 Label.....: Schema (Japan) Genre....: Nu jazz, bossa Beautiful grooves from the Italian Schema label -- a recent imprint, but one that's impressed our ears as much as legendary labels from the 60s and 70s! The tracks here are mostly of recent vintage, but they've often got a very classic sort of groove -- styles pulled from older bossa nova, jazz, and European soundtracks -- often set to rhythms that are a bit more contemporary and definitely aimed at the dancefloor, but usually in somewhat subtle ways. There's a nicely Tokyo-styled feel to the selection of tracks here -- tunes that would be great while shopping the day away in Ropponngi or Shibuya -- and titles include "Bossa Per Due" by Nicola Conte, "Girl On A Mission" by Les Hommes, "Batucada Do Silencio" and "Mrs Beat" by Balanco, "Deeper Love" and "Limbe" by S-Tone Inc, "Fuoco Fatuo (Koop rmx)" and "Love Me Till Sunday" by Nicola Conte, "Senza Paura" by Quintetto X, and "Semplicissimo" by Paolo Achenza Trio Tracklist -------- 1. balanco - batucada do silencio (2:19) 2. balanco - mrs beat (2:46) 3. balanco - the girl from montenegro (3:39) 4. balanco - metti una sera a cena (jazzanova remix) (6:20) 5. les hommes - girl on a mission (3:57) 6. nicola conte - bossa per due (5:52) 7. quintetto x - senza paura (4:19) 8. paolo achenza trio - semplicissimo (5:33) 9. nicola conte - love me till sunday (4:28) 10. nicola conte - fuoco fatuo koop remix (4:08) 11. s-tone inc - deeper love (5:04) 12. s-tone inc - limbe (4:44) - Clique Aki:
