--=[ Jack McDuff ]=-- 2008-06-09 18:09:53 Jack McDuff - Sophisticated Funk [1977]Sophisticated Funk Link 2A lost electric groover from Brother Jack McDuff -- sweet keyboards instead of his usual Hammond, but still plenty darn great!

--=[ Elsiane ]=-- 2008-06-13 14:37:48 Elsiane - Hybrid [2007]Hybrid Link 2'Hybrid' is a very engaging album and I have enjoyed listening to it repeatedly. The generally 'atmospheric' approach will draw some inevitable comparisons with groups like Portishead, Massive Attack, Charlotte Gainsbourg ("5:55") or, perhaps, Julee Cruise (on her "Into The Night" album), but I think that any similarity is only superficial. Listen to the melanch

--=[ Ray Barretto ]=-- 2008-06-14 09:23:07 Ray Barretto - Acid [1968]Acid Link 2Ray Barretto's Latin/soul crossover record of 1968, Acid includes a few tracks of his ebullient, instrumental salsa, but also plays off the boogaloo craze of the past few years with a few Latin soul numbers. The crossovers "A Deeper Shade of Soul," "Soul Drummers," and "Teacher of Love" (all written by Barretto himself) are a lot of fun, but the (relatively) st

The rhyme is complete. Please give
