Keb - starting with 'Night Of The Wolf' which he first played at the Aberdeen Central Soul Club back in 1975. One of the tunes that started the split in the northern soul scene between the traditionalists and those who left to start the jazz funk scene in the North. Jungle fantasy features the services of remixer and collector Ian Wright (who went on to compile 'Sister Funk' BBE035). Mandingo has been caned by Snowboy for years and was he pissed off when Keb put it on this album. 'Opus Three' and 'Cosbyianna' are a couple of obscure jazz tracks that Keb had been hammering in the clubs to the delight of the dancers. Bob - now we get down to the real nitty gritty 'jazz' that all too often misunderstood music form that we tend to shy away from, initially because we don't quite understand it. Yet jazz to Bob has one of the widest spectrums of music within its make up; incorporating blues, soul, Jamaican, Africano, funk, fusion. In fact all quality black music is featured in the jazz side of Bob Jones. The Latin Boogaloo feel of Allen Toussaints 'Tequila' to the wild sax man Bishop Norman Williams. The smooth yet deceptive feel of Janet Lawson's Dindi- always a favourite with the ladies in the house. Watchout for the somewhat Bangra intro to The Soul Society's alternative version of Lee Morgan's Blue Note classic 'Sidewinder' - a real gem and way ahead of its time as was Lionel Hampton's moaning flyer 'A&T' _______________________________________________________________________ 01-al foster band - night of the wolf [04:09] 02-sam most - jungle fantasy [02:55] 03-family soul - yolk [03:05] 04-deacon witherspoon - mandingo [01:57] 05-dee felice trio - nightingale [02:29] 06-birds of paradise - bossa blue port [02:43] 07-fabulous preston combo - ooh cha la la [02:15] 08-earl washington - opus three [03:47] 09-fat albert orchestra - cosbyianna [02:21] 10-music inc - abscretions [02:32] 11-atlanta all starts - dance samba [04:09] 12-the delegates - pigmy part one [02:29] 13-the soul society - the sidewinder [02:27] 14-lionel hampton - a & t [02:20] 15-new swing sextet - my favourite things [03:32] 16-yambu - hippopotamus [03:48] 17-ricardo marrero - babalonia [03:28] 18-janet lawson - dindi [02:20] 19-allen toussaint - tequila [03:11] 20-bishop norman williams - billy's ballet [06:31] 21-joe bataan - latin strut [03:11] ------- 65:39 min _______________________________________________________________________ e m a i l: [email protected] inventas vitam iuvat excoluisse per artes
