How about: Samuel Jonathan Johnson - My Music The title track is one of my favourite raregroove tracks of all time. Check it. Cosign on all the Herbie joints too .

hey there, thanks for the replies yes i was after the vinyl so won't go for the cd - i thought there was probably a vinyl reissue out there but copies must have dried up. i'll get my act together and post my wants up in the wants section once i've g…

Paul Jackson should definitely be on there. Pure Fender Jazz funk, and his virtuosic technique adding licks at the top of the range of the instrument and picking out harmonics are second to none. Check out 'EBFS' by Roger Glenn... Louis Johnson. C…

Cheers Kenny - that's a great help! Tom
-
Hey, thanks Robert! I'll keep both on my wants list - I've heard some of the tracks from Rythmes and I've heard 'Joris De Lumina' but it sounds like I need to get both! Also I'd be very interested if anybody has any background information on the 45r…

Great thead! For me, Headhunters and pretty much all 70's Herbie. Sylvers I, II, III Musical Massage I Want You Don Blackman Hutson I, II

I listen to the Sylvers, Sylvers II or Sylvers III. Or a bit of Isley Brother's 'Work To Do'! Tom

Hey, Here are some: -John Robinson (Rufus; Quincy Jones produced LPs from late 70's/early 80's). -Mick Fleetwood (duh, Fleetwood Mac). -Hal Blaine (played on Bones Howe's productions during the late 60's/early 70's). -Walter Orange (Commodores). -…

Leon Chandler Eric Gravatt Hamid Drake Czeslaw Bartkowski Feeling you on the Gravatt / Bartkowski - I don't think Ndugu should count on this 'under-rated' thread though! Gravatt - classic drumming on the title track of 'Love Love' and I love the Ur…

That's some fucked up shady behavior. No one should ever intentionally de-value a record. Not only is your motivation selfishness, but you're disrespecting the artist that created that music you're now making money off of. what the fuck are you talk…

yeah taza-one - i've seen that one before, it's cool. there's also a youtube video of herbie and quincy in herbie's studio as they jam on the fairlight. watch out for all the keyboards in the background...

song for this thread: 'steppin in it' - herbie hancock. herbie wrote this song about people who 'need to learn to kerb their dogs'!!!!!
-
pickwick - yeah that's an incredible record. been on my wants list for a long time - i don't know what the sound quality of the soul brother reissue is like compared to the original but i might go for that if i don't find the OG. i'd say this record…

man, why has nobody mentioned betty davis yet? FOX

hey roisto, got doubles of the flexidisc. side 2 does indeed include the theme from 'the spook who sat by the door' - but it's not the movie version (check out the DVD for the fully orchestrated badness). the version on the flexidisc is actually fro…

What about: Herbie Hancock - The Spook Who's Sat By The Door Don't mention that crappy bootleg that's around at the moment - I could tell you where every ripped-off track comes from, and the dialogue etc is straight off VHS. Herbie Hancock - Death…
-
Haha - well that's why I said I preferred the original. The most you could say about Madlib's version isn't that he didn't completely screw up what was a great song anyway.
-
i've heard people say that the MIZELL[/b] sound has not aged well. while i don't necessarily agree, i guess i can understand how some might say it's a sound that marks a specific time and struggles to eschew this contextual timeframe and really sta…
-
unreleased soundtracks: hey, check out 'Death Wish' on film. There's an entirely different score - the rights owned by the film company presumably, so sadly it might never see the light of day. that's why the 'OST' on herbie's LP is completely re-re…

cheers frankynipplez - you're a life saver! and props for tracking down the actual record Seamus - there's no way i could afford it at the moment, but i'll keep on searching.... anybody else reading this post - go to the link above and get this trac…

I didn't think it was Freakish Love, no (doesn't sound familiar). You might be right though - have you got the 'Operation Heritage' comp to confirm? From what I can remember it was more of a mid-70s jazz funk sound - Paul Jackson sounding-bass, Rhod…
