An overlooked later gem from Parliament – a set that's very tight and funky, and which really picks up the groove first laid down on "Flashlight"! There's a tightly snapping approach here that rivals the best late 70s work by Funkadelic – the later P-Funk mode that's even more focused on rhythms than before, and which gets away from the sloppy stuff to really hit home with the groove! Tunes are steeped in horny horns, wah wah guitar, and lots of electric keyboards – and titles include "The Big Bang Theory", which is virtually a blueprint for the LA G-funk sound of the 80s – plus the tracks "The Freeze", "May We Bang You?", "Party People", and "(GloryHallaStoopid) Pin The Tail On The Funky".

Blossom Dearie —
Jazz Masters 51 ... CD Verve, Late 50s/Early 60s. Used ...
Out Of Stock
A wonderful collection of Blossom's excellent early vocal work for Verve – some of the sweetest, grooviest jazz singing recorded at the time – in a style that other singers didn't pick up for years! Most tracks feature warmly jazz small combo backing – with Blossom's light and magical vocals at the top of the mix, tippling nicely through 16 tracks that include "L'etang", "Dearie's Blues", "Manhattan", "The Party's Over", "Bang Goes The Drum", "Little Jazz Bird", "Let Me Love You", "They Say It's Spring", and "Rhode Island Is Famous For You". CD
This is the third full length from the group that brings you politically scathing, partybangin, conscious hip hop for your urban revolution fun time. There's a lot of live instrumentation funky sloppiness for your neck and body to get loose to. The Coup also pull off the feat of managing to rhyme charged and intelligently about a very dark reality, while simultaneously still keeping your body bouncin constantly. Tracks include the smart "5 Million Ways To Kill A C.E.O.", "Ghetto Manifesto", "Get Up" featuring Dead Prez, "Lazy Muthaf*cka", "Ride The Fence", "Everythang", "Wear Clean Draws", "Pork And Beef", "Thought About It 2", "Tight", "Nowalaters", and "Heven Tonite".
