VA - Africa: From Dakar to Johannesburg (2006)

Artist : VA
Title Of Album : VA - Africa: From Dakar to Johannesburg

Collecting pieces from the various items in the old Sunset-France catalogs, Edition Pierre Verger: Africa -- From Dakar to Johannesburg takes a stab at going around the whole of sub-Saharan African music in one album. Needless to say, that's a bit much. As such, the focus is largely on West African (Mali, Senegal, etc) and Central African (primarily Congolese), with a bit of South African tossed in here and there. The mood moves back and forth from high to low, fast to slow, as the music moves from country to country. Represented though are griot music from the Malian empire and further west, contemporary music from Burkina Faso and Senegal, precursors to soukous from Congo, some isicathamiya from South Africa, and a small load of pieces from the Drummers of Burundi, a relatively successful ensemble featured on some RealWorld recordings. The music is generally well performed, with some especially nice and refreshing takes from the likes of Boni Gnahore, Mamany Kouyate (a singer from the National Ballets du Mali), and the Bana Kin percussion group from D.R. Congo. The only real issue with the album is the lack of coherence, or of a story. There are so many cultures and musical idioms represented here, it makes for a schizoid sampler, rather than a singular compilation. Nonetheless, it makes for a decent stepping stone for those entirely new to African music, and holds a few nice surprises for the initiated.

Tracklist:
01. Mamany Kouyaté - Fatou nana
02. Boni Gnahoré - Kpako solo
03. Ankata - Komanania
04. Tambours du Burundi - Umve mama urumviriza

This 28th volume of Ethiopique pays tribute to Ali Birra, the man in whom Oromo music has irrepressibly affirmed itself since the 1960s. A very unusual groove, very different from gouragué, amhara and tigrigna rhythms, a relentless quest for identity and, on top of that, a guitar style that would stand out anywhere. (Most of the pieces presented here were recorded between 1973 and 1975, yet this album also features 3 previously unreleased tracks from the 1960s)

Review by Richard S. Ginell

Centered around some soundtrack music that Herbie Hancock wrote for Bill Cosby's Fat Albert cartoon show, Fat Albert Rotunda was Hancock's first full-fledged venture into jazz-funk -- and his last until Head Hunters -- making it a prophetic release. At the same time, it was far different in sound from his later funk ventures, concentrating on a romping, late-'60s-vintage R&B-oriented sound. with frequent horn riffs and great rhythmic comping and complex solos from Hancock's Fender Rhodes electric piano. The syllables of the titles alone -- "Wiggle Waggle," "Fat Mama," "Oh! Oh! Here He Comes" -- have a rhythm and feeling that tell you exactly how this music saunters and swaggers along -- just like the jolly cartoon character. But there is more to this record than fatback funk. There is the haunting, harmonically sophisticated "Tell Me a Bedtime Story" (which ought to become a jazz standard), and the similarly relaxed "Jessica." The sextet on hand is a star-studded bunch, with Joe Henderson in funky and free moods on tenor sax, Johnny Coles on trumpet, Garnett Brown on trombone, Buster Williams on bass, and Albert "Tootie" Heath on drums. Only Williams would remain for Hancock's 1977 electric V.S.O.P.: The Quintet album to come. In addition, trumpeter Joe Newman, saxophonist Joe Farrell, guitarist Eric Gale, and drummer Bernard Purdie make guest appearances on two tracks.

Tracks:

1. Wiggle-Waggle - 5:51
2. Fat Mama - 3:49
3. Tell Me A Bedtime Story - 5:01
4. Oh! Oh! Here He Comes - 4:08
5. Jessica - 4:13
6. Fat Albert Rotunda - 6:29
7. Lil' Brother - 4:26

Personnel:

* Herbie Hancock — piano, electric piano

Raul De Souza - Colors (1975)

Artist: Raul De Souza
Title Of Album: Colors
Year Of Release: 2011
Label: BGP Records / CDBGPM239
Genre: Fusion, Funk, Modal, Latin Jazz
Total Time: 40:41 min

This was Brazilian trombonist Raul De Souza's debut LP for Orrin Keepnews' Milestone jazz label. It was first released in 1975 and now something of a collectors' item, it's been revived by Ace's BGP imprint. It's a fine fusion set laced with piquant touches of Brazilian flavouring and the occasional soupþon of greasy funk. At the production helm is De Souza's fellow countryman, legendary percussionist Airto Moreira who enlisted famous US bebop trombonist, J. J. Johnson, to arrange a six-piece horn/reed section. With Jack DeJohnette on drums (he played with Moreira in Miles Davis's early '70s band), Richard Davis on bass, and a couple of strong cameos from alto sax giant, Cannonball Adderley, 'Colors' turns out to be a hugely enjoyable set. There's a superb rendering of the Joe Zawinul-penned 'Dr Honoris Causa' (originally written as a tribute to Herbie Hancock) with De Souza bringing new sonorities to the melody line, thanks to the rich, full-bodied tone of his trombone.

Cast from a different mould is 'Festival,' a highly propulsive Latin-inflected groove driven by a Brazilian samba beat and dominated by oodles of percussion. Another highlight is 'Canto De Ossanha,' a swaggering large ensemble piece featuring some great interplay between De Souza and Cannonball Adderley (sadly it was one of Cannon's last sideman appearances û he died nine months later). A lovely, plaintive version of Chick Corea's 'Crystal Silence' demonstrates (especially in its ruminative opening before the song really takes off) that the Brazilian trombonist could play with great sensitivity when required. After this impressive album û his first in the USA - the hirsute De Souza (who boasted a humongous Afro hairdo) signed to Capitol in the late-'70s and recorded three LPs (including the excellent 'Sweet Lucy'). But it was with 'Colors' that his reputation started to grow.

2 - Canto de Ossanha
3 - Water Buffalo
4 - Dr. Honoris Causa

Review by Alex Henderson:

It's always regrettable when a talented jazz improviser puts jazz on the back burner, and that's exactly what Roy Ayers did when he made soul and funk his primary emphasis in the late '70s. As a jazz vibist, Ayers showed great potential in the '60s and early '70s, so it's understandable that jazz lovers were sorry to see him give up instrumental jazz. But when jazz purists claimed that Ayers' soul/funk output was worthless, they were dead wrong. The truth is that while Let's Do It doesn't have much to offer from a jazz standpoint, it's an excellent R&B outing. Ayers and Ubiquity are as appealing on the infectious funk hit "Freaky Deaky" as they are on "Kiss," "You Came Into My Life," and other examples of mellow, relaxed quiet storm music. While the LP's more mellow offerings have jazz overtones, it's important to realize that they're R&B tunes first and foremost -- saying that something is jazzy is not the same as calling it jazz. Let's Do It isn't the place to go looking for either acoustic jazz or electric jazz-fusion, but it's well worth obtaining if you're interested in '70s soul/funk.

Tracklist:

01. Let's Do It (Ayers-Allen) - 5:27
02. Melody Maker (Allen) - 5:04
03. When Is Real Real? (Ayers-Kinnard) - 8:07
