"The late Leon Thomas was a vocalist who has proven to be influential among jazz and blues saxophonists, guitarists, and pianists, who've admitted their debt to his innovation. However, though there are many jazz and blues vocalists who have benefited from his style as well, he is seldom acknowledged for his highly original — and idiosyncratic — contribution to them. One can only speculate as to why, though Thomas' full-throated style which employed everything from yodels and Joe Turner-ish growls and shouts may have been too wide for anyone to grasp in its entirety without overtly sounding as if they were aping him. At the time of this reissue (2001), the only other Leon Thomas titles available under his own leadership were a European best-of collection and the inferior live album (badly edited), Sunrise on Gold Mountain. Blues and the Soulful Truth is among the artist's most enduring performances, either as a leader or sideman. There is his trademark, otherworldly modal improvisation on Gabor Szabo's exotica classic 'Gypsy Queen,' the deep, greasy gutbucket, funky blues of 'Let's Go Down to Lucy' and 'L-O-V-E,' and the traditional tune 'C.C. Rider' — though Thomas' arrangement is anything but — among a lengthy, eight-song set. Perhaps the most revealing examples of his singularity is his ability to interpret a song like John Lee Hooker's 'Boom, Boom' as funky, jazzed-out, angular R&B — enabled mightily by the saxophone stylings of Pee Wee Ellis and the criminally under-appreciated pianism of Neal Creque and the wild violin of John Blair — after coming out of a pop-oriented soul tune such as 'Love Each Other,' written with a groove prevalent among commercial jazz and R&B recordings of the time, both sounding sincere, authentic, and completely full of the singer's presence. Indeed, on the aforementioned 'Gypsy Queen' or his own 'Shape Your Mind to Die,' Thomas inhabits his material fully, as if nobody ever had ever sung or heard these songs and would ever sing them again. Also, the production innovation and percussive touches many of these tunes have yet to be repeated (Pharoah Sanders, Thomas' previous employer who introduced the singer to the world, adopted some of the artist's percussive techniques permanently), like the firecrackers raining against Airto Moreira's drums and Larry Coryell's ethereal guitar riffs, or the use of a 'prepared' vibraphone and coat hangers in 'China Doll,' as they slip against the singer's wail and moan, and the elegant stick and brushwork of Bernard 'Pretty' Purdie. In sum, Blues and the Soulful Truth (Which does echo Oliver Nelson's Blues and the Abstract Truth in vision as well as title), is a tour through the depth and dimension of Thomas' mind-blowing abilities as a singer in a wide range of African American musical traditions, proving at the time, and now again, that he was far more than a free jazz singer. Indeed, the artist not only was a stylist of originality, but a composer, arranger, ethnomusicologist, and a singer of startling beauty and power — no matter the song. This album is a singular achievement, even among the fine recordings in Thomas' own catalogue, and should be considered first by those curious enough to look into his work — you won't be disappointed no matter what you find, but this one will take you places you never anticipated going."

About Afternoons In Stereo
Afternoons In Stereo is a music project based in Hamilton, Ontario -- Canada. The sound encompasses jazz, funk, latin, breakbeat, and downtempo.
Greg Vickers, the man behind Afternoons In Stereo, hails from Hamilton -- a city about an hour outside of Toronto. "My interest and passion for music can be traced way back to my childhood and adolescence -- I have had an unquenchable passion for music for as long as I can rememember".
In a time when the record industry is in flux, when the p2p revolution is changing the way we access music, and the electronic music scene thrives in pockets of small but dedicated followers, isn't it refreshing then that Vickers has created Afternoons In Stereo without the aid of a record label or distributor? "I do it because I love it and it is a way for me to express myself. I'm not just looking to make money.". A refreshing perspective, and an all-too-rare one.

Ahmad Jamal’s final Impulse! date documents his appearance at the 1971 Montreux Jazz Festival. Comprising two epic improvisations, each occupying an entire side of the LP, Outertimeinnerspace is a challenging but deeply rewarding effort that captures the pianist at his most profoundly spiritual, exploring otherworldly dimensions of space and sound. Jamal, bassist Jamil Nasser, and drummer Frank Gant all deliver performances of uncommon intensity, channeling the energy of the audience into music that pulses with life and crackles with inspiration. Both “Bogota” and “Extensions” demand listeners’ full immersion, and reward their efforts with music of uncommon daring.

70s action film-styled funk from the Italian scene from Signor Wolf - one that certainly lives up the experience promised by the title! The Signor Wolf approach is much more styled after the pulpy funk era soundtracks of the 70s than many of the JBs-born funk revival projects out there today - with tight, freaky guitars, persistently rollicking beats and spunky bass, organ, vibes and some subtle programmed elements.

11. Get Out Of The Way (So I Can Get Back To My Life) (04:02)
The Diplomats of Solid Sound are back with their 5th full-length, and if the last album was their senior effort, with "What Goes Around Comes Around" the band has officially graduated! Once again mixed and edited by Freestyle's boy wonder Adam Gibbons aka Lack Of Afro and featuring The Diplomettes on vocals, the cuts included here are a strong showcase of the growing maturity and sophistication of the group. From the sing-along chorus of opening track "B-O-O-G-A-L-O-O", to the smooth soul number that gives the album its title, the uptempo "Back Off", or the instrumental groover "Bailout", "What Goes Around Comes Around" draws on a variety of styles but always keeping things soulful and funky!
The vintage sound of The Diplomats has been fine-tuned by almost a decade of releases, and ever since their first album in 2001 the band has been making a name for itself by firmly establishing it's credentials as one of the tightest contemporary soul outfits out there. The group can already count on the support of names such as Pete Isaac (Jelly Jazz), Mark Lamarr (BBC 2), Craig Charles (BBC 6), Rob Luis (Tru Thoughts), and Michael Ruetten (Compost Records), just to name a few, but with "What Goes Around Comes Around" The Diplomats Of Solid Sound raise the stakes up a notch. Though the formula remains unchanged, there's an added depth to the music, making this album a heavyweight must-have no matter how you listen to it!

Produced by Freestyle Records hottest property LACK OF AFRO aka Adam Gibbons, Pravda Records (in association w/Record Kicks UK) proudly presents the new album from Iowa City s ambassadors of funk and soul, The Diplomats Of Solid Sound featuring for the first time, The Diplomettes. Having already cut 3 full-length albums, "Instrumental Action Soul" (Prescription Records - 2001), "Let´s Cool One"(Estrus Records - 2003) and "Destination Get Down!" (Estrus Records - 2005), you can hear the band growing stronger in sophistication and depth as they further ingested the sounds of 60s soul, R&B and deep funk. Cut to 2006 and The Diplomats became backing band to RnB/Soul legend Andre Williams & recorded "Aphrodisiac" with ´Mr. Rhythm´ released in 2006 on both Pravda and Spanish label Vampisoul. That same year they asked 3 gifted soul sirens (Sarah Cram, Katherine Ruestow & Abigail Sawyer) aka the Diplomettes to join the group and the rest as they say is soul history. This self-titled album is chocked full of irresistible funk and soul bombs ready to melt your heart or make you shake it on the dance-floor. As an added bonus, Lack Of Afro put in a bit of overtime in the studio to sprinkle his magic on "Hurt Me So", giving it a skanking reggae feel whilst retaining the silky smooth vocals.

Speaking of Soulstance, the majority of the trakcs on this cd were written by Frisina and Vincenzo Lo Greco while this was recorded in Lo Greco Studios in Milan.

Numerous compilations of '70s soul, funk, and fusion have been compiled in the name of blaxploitation throughout the years, whether or not all the inclusions were actually used in blaxploitation films (granted, just about everything from this ... Full Descriptionera was fit for soundtrack use). Union Square's The Best of Blaxploitation retraces a lot of familiar steps, but it's not as if most of the similar preceding compilations have remained easy to find. It's three discs in length, so it's bound to plug some significant gaps for beginners and moderate fans, and it contains some concise and informative track-by-track notes. It plays it straight, for the most part, with no revelations made for the hardcore collector. Highlights include James Brown's "The Boss," Marvin Gaye's "'T' Plays It Cool," Syl Johnson's "Different Strokes," Cymande's "Bra," and, naturally, Curtis Mayfield's "Superfly."

E Você ja matou o seu " Gigante " hoje ?
1Sm 17: 49, lemos: “E Davi meteu a mão no alforje, e tomou dali uma pedra e com a funda lha atirou, e feriu o filisteu na testa, e a pedra se lhe cravou na testa, e caiu sobre seu rosto em terra”. 1Sm 17: 49, “E assim prevaleceu contra o filisteu, com uma funda e com uma pedra, e feriu o filisteu, e o matou sem que Davi tivesse uma espada na mão”. (V. 50).
“Pelo que correu Davi, e pôs-se em pé sobre o filisteu, e tomou a sua espada, e tirou-a da bainha; e o matou, e lhe cortou com ela a cabeça, vendo então os filisteus, que seu campeão era morto, fugiram”.

The opening tune is the wonderful remix by Danish producer Solo Moderna of the song "The Fixer" by "Cinematic band of the moment" Acusmatic Group. Followed by a series of wild break beat productions, among which Aldo Vannucci`s remix of "Davil Inside" by Max Sedley stand out, together with the soundtrack of Sony PSP`s TV ad "Body Down" by The Shiffers. We could not ignore, of cource, Benji Jumping and Robert Passera (with a taster of his new album), but also Modulo 5 and Low Fidelity Jet Set Orchestra (both from minds of the duo Dave Masoch/Paolo Apollo Negri, the latter with track under his own name too).
Last but not least: one of the last productions from the late DJ Rodrigues, with special guest on vocals Maki from Pizzicato Five!

Chico Hamilton - Twelve Tones of Love
Artist: Chico Hamilton
Title Of Album: Twelve Tones of Love
Year Of Release: April 14, 2009
Label: Joyous Shout
Genre: Jazz
Quality: MP3 / Joint Stereo
Bitrate: VBR kbit/s / 44.1 Khz
Total Time: 01:15:40
Total Size: 102 mb
Whereas drum legends like Art Blakey, Gene Krupa, and Buddy Rich are known for their stunning solos, veteran Chico Hamilton is just the opposite--he is known for his subtlety, propelling an ensemble in a modest yet noteworthy manner. TWELVE TONES OF LOVE is something of a departure for Hamilton (and most jazz discs in general) as it consists of 18 short, super-concise tracks. Hamilton and company make every note count as they effortlessly dart in and out of an assortment of styles. Among the TONES explored are hard bop, cool, Latin, fusion, and free. With a crew of younger cats and old friends, the musicianship is, as usual, excellent.

Não costumo postar disco de artistas nem de selos do Brasil porque é um saco ! Mas achei este disco bem interessante e resolvi compartilhar com vocês, o Artista é sensacional e o selo um dos meus preferidos, apesar de ser aqui do Brasil onde o jabà rola solto.
Ari is a fantastic player with a talent for both, grand piano and Hammond. This is important as both instruments require different techniques and not many players can do well in both cases. Ari can and he makes his keys sing so sweet. Plus, the way he mixes jazz with soul and a bin of funk is so precise, yet so full of passion and gut that can only come from an artist who has spent a lot of time and love to get to know the music. Having said all that, “AB4” is so good that it could easily be one of the highlights in the catalog of the legendary Blue Note Records. Absolutely hot disc!
