    Sortie : 1973

    I had to stick up for this album since no one else has reviewed it yet. The lack of critical press for this album is puzzling, it is definitely some of the best music I have heard in a while. Egon from Now Again (subsidiary of Stones Throw) has done it again, unearthing a true gem that has Temptations style vocal harmonies set to hard funk and r&b. The music was recorded in 1973, but it contains a timeless quality which would sound fresh and exciting in any era. There is an urgency and energy to the music, from the socially concerned lyrics to the incredible instrumentation. Fans of L.A. Carnival or any other funk and soul groups need to check this out. Highly recommended.

    Style : Afro Funk Rock , Soul , Psychedelic
    Sortie : 1972


    A fantastic bit of tripped out funk! Cane & Able were one of the many groups that came out of the collective surrounding the Lafayette Afro-Rock Band in the early 70s — and like that group, Cane & Able draw on a wide range of influences to create a heavy funky sound. The album mixes the African influences used by the LARB with more of a hard soul vocal approach, with some cuts sounding a bit like material from Atlantic albums of the late 60s, but handled with more of a fuzzy edge. Includes a great funky reading of Wilson Pickett’s “Don’t Knock My Love”, a cover of “Who’s Gonna Take The Weight”, and the long tripped-out groover “Girl You Move Me”!

    ...2006 saw Freestyle Records in the UK release Diggin Deeper, a compilation of all of Speedometer’s early 7" 45 releases in one place on CD for the very first time. It also saw them back in Big Noise Studios to start laying tracks for the next album 4 Flights Up realeased in 2007 on Freestyle Records. Over the years, Speedometer has worked with many of the US funk legends including Sir Joe Quarterman, Eddie Bo, Marva Whitney, Sharon Jones, James Bell (The Highlighters), Lee Fields, Billy Wooten and Robert Moore. All the artists were blown away by 's authenticity to the original soul-funk sound. The 2007 album Four Flights Up is widely regarded as one of the best funk albums of the last 10 years. The band released a live album in March 2009, Soul Grooving and started recording their 5th studio album in summer 2009 for release in september 2010. This new album The Shakedown features contributions from Myles Sanko, DJ Format, Snowboy, The Root Source, Natasha Watts, and James Brown's co-vocalist Miss Martha High.

    IN-DISPENSABLE a toute personne qui aime les sons groove, funky matinés d'une pointe de jazz. Ceux qui ne connaissent Schifrin que pour Mission Impossible ou Bullitt seraient étonnés de remarquer que le talent de ce monsieur est bien au dela de tout ca. Ecrit et arrangé en milieu des 70's pour Dizzy, pour une complicité musicale qui ne cessera pas, ce premier opus des deux compères est une réussite TOTALE..!!!!
    Très bon tempos bien rythmés avec une diversité d'instruments, tels que les indispensables cuivres, mais aussi flutes, orgues electroniques, guitare, etc...
    Fermez les yeux et vous replongerez dans l'esprit des 70's : pattes d'eph, starsky et hutch, shaft, etc.... Mais attention on ne peut parler ici de kitsch, il s'agit bien de bon jazz balancé, groovy a souhait et avec un soupcon de latino, Lalo Schifrin etant argentin.
    Je ne vous le recommande pas, il s'impose pour tout amateur de jazz !!!
