Tracks include "Cherokee", "Duke's Idea", "Count's Idea", "Rockin' In Rhythm", "Six Lessons From Madame La Zonga", and "Leapin' At The Lincoln" – 21 tracks in all. (Jazz) CD
Recent work from George Benson – smoother than his classic 60s work, but with a nice soulful groove that's a lean extension of his work in the 70s. And sure, it's a bit smooth jazz – but don't forget that George virtually invented the genre, and hearing his guitar work on the set, it's ... (Jazz) read moreCD

Temporarily Out Of Stock
A jazz funk masterpiece, and THE record by the legendary Don Blackman – the only one issued under his own name for many many years, and a famous little set that's been sampled endlessly over the years, and for good reason! The vibe here is one that's barely been matched again – a blend ... (Soul) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(Out of print, 2007 Japanese pressing – includes obi.)
The Brecker Brothers return – and update their jazz funk groove for the 90s! The sound here is a bit more contemporary than the duo's classics of the 70s – more programmed beats and heavy keyboards – but there's still plenty of warmer jazz elements too, not just in the tenor from ...

Soaring sounds from trumpeter Tom Browne – a younger player who really took the torch, and opened up a new path forward from early 70s electric funk experiments by artists like Donald Byrd and Freddie Hubbard! With work on this set, Browne is clearly the heir apparent to the CTI sound of ... (Jazz) read moreCD
Smooth trumpety funk from the great Tom Browne! "Funkin For Jamaica" is a great one – very much in a Donald Byrd mode, but with a slightly smoother finish over the top! "Dreams Of Lovin You" is mellower, but still nice. (Funky 45's) 7-inch, Vinyl record

An early gem from trumpeter Tom Browne – a set that not only firmly established Browne as one of the best young players of his generation, but which also paved the way for a whole new direction for jazz funk in the 80s!

A great CD that combines most of the material on Art's two albums for Argo – Art (1960) and Perception (1961). Art is a beautiful album of understated brilliance – one of Farmer's early shifts into the sublime, an easily blown batch of trumpet tracks played with trio backing by Tommy ... (Jazz) read moreCD

A record that has Dave Grusin elevating a bit more into the jazz/soul mainstream – as the set has the keyboardist working with a few more crossover modes than before, but all in a way that seems to demonstrate his many years in various kinds of music!
