Showtime will never be the same .......2007-06-12
FUNKY STUFF.......2007-01-12
A cluster bomb of Funk!.......2003-01-11
But no bother, 'cause there's much to make up for it. "Soul Power '74" by Maceo & The Macks is a showcase for the tightest horn section in history, over an instrumental version of "Soul Power". Not only is this particular record sampled more than hors douvres in a supermarket aisle, it contains samples itself in the form of tape overlays of civil rights rallies, a Dr. King speech, and an announcement of King's assassination. This track and several others are also available on the JB's Anthology, but don't let that scare you away...
...Because...[he] has a stable of female vocalists available only in this Funky People series. And man are they the rawest, most soulful singers you'll find. Marva Whitney, of "It's My Thing" fame, appears here with one of the most high-powered cuts on the album. "What Do I Have to Do to Prove My Love to You" is a hi-ball freight train of horns that is a gas to dance to, and ends before you've had time to make sense of it all. Lynn Collins (the Female Preacher), the featured diva on Funky People Pt. 1, turns in a seriously fried-chicken greasy live version of Isaac Hayes' "Do Your Thing". And Myra Barnes' oft-sampled "The Message From the Soul Sisters", with its prominent piano groove, and "Super Good", a vamp on Wilson Pickett's incredible "Engine #9", are two scoops of pure flavor.
This collection closes out with one of my personal favorite jams by the JB's, "Blow Your Head". It doesn't get much better than this. James Brown plays the far-out Moog synthesizer in a virtual free-jazz style over the rhythm section and aggressive horns. Hip-hop fans may recognize this tune as the source for Public Enemy's very first song, the brilliantly grating "Public Enemy #1". All in all Funky People Pt. 2 is a must for soul and hip-hop collectors, as well as a thoroughly enjoyable time-warp for the average listener.

L.A.'s Breakestra might kick out the jams with some killer funk, but at heart they're a hip-hop band. After all, it was rap's insatiable sample seeking that helped resurrect waning interest in funk, and Breakestra take the crate-diggin' craze one step further. Led by Miles Tackett, this 12-plus member band rummages deep through the musical samples that have made hip-hop the sonic force it is. Raiding everyone from James Brown to Roy Ayers to the Meters and countless other small-time funkateers, Breakestra re-create the soulful and jazzy sounds of yesteryear. They tease the ear with songs made infamous by rap artists like A Tribe Called Quest, KRS-One, Pete Rock, Marley Marl, and others. Their Live Mix, Part 2 reverberates with the spontaneity that only a live band can create, as segues shift with just a quick drum break or brass stab. While trainspotting sample hounds will get a kick out of Breakestra, you don't need prior knowledge of the samples to enjoy the album. No matter what, Breakestra guarantee a funkin' good time.

Great album, even if short.......2006-06-21
An impeccably performed Funk/Breaks Mixtape, with literally no Equal....!!!.......2005-08-03
The first segment of the disk (Sections 1-9) are largely taken up with absolutely sublime instrumental interpretations of tracks that most people will recognise as classic hip-Hop breaks ("A Tribe Called Quest", "KRS-One", "Pete Rock", "Marley Marl", "Public Enemy", "De La Soul"...etc), and apart from being exact (apart from a ever so slightly more audibly difference in sound, due to the instruments not being the exact ones originally used), the tracks themselves, may sound to some listeners, as if the band have taken each track, and heavily steeped it in Funk. (This is because the Hip-Hop Tracks that most will recognise, are themselves sampled originally from Funk Tracks...and so the band are merely using the original Funk recordings, as their template).
From there on in, the album is a collection of Jaw-Dropping covers / Slightly different reinterpretations / And the occasional original composition (with "Getcho Soul Together" & "Sexy Popcorn Pot," making up the bands original material), that find a incredibly talented band that simply have, not only the musicianship, but the complete accessibility in their music to appeal to a far wider audience, than they currently have. (admittedly, their album isn't widely available enough in the U.K., for more people to actually know about their music). So with a album that is a continuous collection of Funk Breaks, that rattles it way through tracks, adding or improvising the sound, but with enough recognisable tracks from artists such as: James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone, that means that, this isn't one of those Rare-Funk mixes, where none of the material is familiar & initially difficult to penetrate, this strikes a fine balance between having enough recognisable material for newcomers, & more rare/hard to find Deep Funk, for the enthusiasts/Crate Diggers. And what both parties will agree on, is the familiar material is so expertly interpreted or re-created, into a Live orchestration, that it sounds doesn't sound overly familiar and feels like a new spin (or slight remix) of established tracks.
Holding together a lot of the transitions between tracks is the MC "Mixmaster Wolf" (Aka Stones-throws "Peanut Butter Wolf"), who...sings, Mcees, Raps and shouts-out over/between tracks...and actually manages to liven up the proceedings. And without his contributions, this mixtape would run the risk of just being a merely impeccably performed instrumental Breaks album, lacking a little something, to warrant multiple plays (Purists with possibly prefer to hear the music uninterrupted), but few could deny that his high energy, high impact MCing, adds an undeniable party atmosphere to the proceedings
Possibly the most apt description I could give, in describing this stunning mixtape is....imagine the legendary Funk band "The Meters" covering well-known Funk/Hip-Hop Breaks, with all the energetic skill and unmitigated exuberance, befitting one of Funk music greatest acts, and then add a particularly skilled MCee, with all the swagger & celebratory vocals of a young 'James Brown', and you've have unquestionably one of the most brilliantly conceived mixtapes in recent memory. (Admittedly the concept & arrangement behind this, goes a lot further, than just merely being a standard mixtape), and if you have even a passing interest in either Breaks, Funk/Funky-Breaks or indeed like the idea of fantastically euphoric Jam sessions , you simply must seek out this largely ignored gem, for some of the most proficiently performed and feel-good mix-albums of recent years, and is absolutely worth any needed effort to purchase or track this album down.

The second installment of the "lost" Bob Marley and the Wailers tracks is like a cache of buried treasure. As was the case with the heralded first collection, this three-CD set, which covers Marley and the Wailers from 1970-1971, have their origins in the early sessions Marley did for the JAD label. Due to a myriad of twisted legal reasons, these sessions (another set is due out shortly) were never released outside of Jamaica. Many of the songs on this superb anthology would ultimately be recorded again by Marley and his band under Chris Blackwell's watch. What helps make this collection essential is that the man at boards is Lee "Scratch" Perry, the once and future God of Dub and beyond. Check out Perry's more sped up, rawer version of "Four Hundred Years" (later retitled "400 Years" and released on Catch a Fire--or the numerous dub and instrumentals, all of which shine a light on the Wailers as a band. With many familiar cuts ("Kaya," "African Herbsman," an early version of "Who the Cap Fits") and previously unheard songs, some of which never made it out of sound systems in Kingston, this is an intoxicating look at works in progress and the development of a sound and an icon. --Amy LindenCustomer Reviews:
Some Of The Best Wailers Matierial Ever.......2004-02-08
Really good, but with a caution..........2002-07-17
For me, the vocals are a huge part of the Wailers appeal. The lyrics, and the voices of Bob, Bunny, and Peter have always moved me. Take them away, and I find myself missing them and filling in the words in my head to complete the sound. This in no way detracts from the original versions of the tracks that make up this set. The sound quality is dodgy is parts, but who cares? The genius of Bob, Peter, Bunny and the Barretts shine through loud and clear. If you want polished, pick up Confrontation.
4 stars, not 5, but only because I usually pop out each CD about half way through when the instrumentals start...
