Richard "Groove" Holmes - Six Million Dollar Man (1975) [vinyl]

One of Groove Holmes' best albums of the 70s -- thanks to some electric blacksploitation arrangements from the great Oliver Nelson! The format's a bit tighter here than on some of Holmes' Groove Merchant albums from the earlier part of the decade -- an approach that's almost like soundtrack scoring at times, but which allows Groove to stretch out a bit more on the solos, and take things way past the already-funky head arrangements penned by Nelson. Mike Wofford's also on the record, throwing in some great electric piano and Arp in underneath Holmes' own funky Hammond -- and other players include Tom Scott, David T Walker, and Oscar Brashear -- who all contribute nicely to the record. Titles include "Disc-o-Mite", "Salsa de Alma", "Dumpy Mama", "Mama's Groove", "125th & 7th Ave", and "Six Million Dollar Man", the theme from the TV show!  © Dusty Groove, Inc.

Mike Mainieri - Journey Thru An Electric Tube (1968) [vinyl]

It’s sad that Mike Mainieri never received the attention he so richly deserved with Journey Thru An Electric Tube, as the album was recorded exceedingly well, managed in its construction to be both forward looking and forward thinking, being one of the most enduring of the vibraphone releases, where it delivered and channeled its sound in an easy to appreciate low volume, was not for one moment abrasive, and totally ideal for a 60’s kick back lounge around the living room atmosphere. Mike was a pioneer with his introduction of the electronic vibraphone, then known as the synth-vibe. The album is effortless, fluid, soulful at times, smooth and laced with some cool 60’s inspired tripped out vibes, along with visionary and contemporary flute and guitar playing by Jeremy Steig that shouldn’t be missed. Yet the praises only begin there, a total of nine artists assembled to make this album the timeless classic it is today, along with a first-rate engineering, recording, pressing and a solid heavy jacket that has also stood the test of time. The album has never as yet been released on compact disc. Simply an absolute pleasure to spin. ~ Extract by Jenell Kesler, discogs.com.

Shirley Scott - Shirley Scott & The Soul Saxes (1969) [vinyl]

One of Scott’s best albums, Shirley Scott and the Soul Saxes finds the organist on a 1969 set of mostly soul covers. This was one of her few dates for the soul-heavy Atlantic label, but it certainly qualifies as a standout in the entire soul-jazz catalog. Joined by the royal sax trio of David Newman, King Curtis, and Hank Crawford, Scott plies her smooth, yet deep B-3 alchemy atop a stellar rhythmic pulse supplied by Chuck Rainey, Bernard “Pretty” Purdie, and Richard Tee. And this fine contingent does not fail to please, especially on a joyous take of “More Today Than Yesterday” and the gospel-infused “I Wish I Knew (How It Feels Like to Be Free).” The versions of classics by the Isley Brothers, Aretha Franklin, and the Beatles aren’t bad either. ~ Stephen Cook, AMG.

Ray Bryant - MCMLXX (1970)

 Despite some commercial tendencies, this 1970 LP (not yet reissued on CD) is better than it looks. Pianist Ray Bryant uplifts such pop material as "Let It Be," "Bridge Over Troubled Waters," "Hey Jude," and "Spinning Wheel." Four selections find Bryant's trio (with electric bassist Chuck Rainey and drummer Jimmy Johnson) augmented by either horns (on "Let It Be") or by strings effectively arranged by Eumir Deodata. The colorful results are not essential but are less dated than one might think. ~ by Scott Yanow, AMG.

Timeless
=======
Long overdue, this is the album that propelled Ray Bryant onto the jazz radio charts for weeks (if not months) in 1971, by virtue of the remarkable interpretation of "Unchained Melody". Considering the popularity of the album, and the airplay, it is puzzling that this album has not been reissued before now (as the album title suggests, original -- and only previous -- release was 1970). Recommended to Ray Bryant fans and to piano jazz lovers equally. ~ Geezosaur, Amazon.com.

Gene Harris - Astral Signal (1974)

A well sought out jazz-funk title from blue note. Although most of this album is Gene on his piano, this album brings out Gene's talent with the ARP and Minimoog Synthesizers. One listen to his cover of sly stone's "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey" and you'll become a definite believer! Boy, does this cut blaze a trail of hard driving synth funk! The MiniMoog bass line is all over this one, as Gene fills the top off with some squealy ARP Odyssey/Pro soloist overlays. A killer funk ride classic. Then there's "Losalamitoslatinfunklovesong", a buttery smooth, slow grinding funk love jam that will get your juices flowing on the dance floor! The Moog bass kicks up and down, and side to side, while the high synth notes make love to the listeners ear. Great synth playing all around from gene and good background vocals from the session players, too. Also check out the eerie, spacey prelude at the start of the album, it's a sonic statement! ~ fonkay, RYM.

This album is a magical balance between psychedelic laid back california inspired acid jazz sounds scapes and the greasy soul of a mid-century (last century) juke joint. A pastiche of professional music with heart and creativity. No other album on blue note or by Harris sounds like this. A fine artistic statement by Harris who seemed to be at his peak in the mid-70s. ~ freqazoidiac, RYM.

Billy Butler - Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow (1970) [re-rip]

Billy Butler is well known to guitarists only, as the co-author of the early R&B funked-up standard "Honky Tonk," with organist Bill Doggett. But the almighty groove wasn't Butler's only strength. With a saxophonist like Houston Person, he could play the most elegant swing - as in their read of the Rodgers & Hart classic "Dancing on the Ceiling" The wildest tune on the Person sessions is Neil Hefti and Bobby Troup's "Girl Talk." Before this I could never have imagined hearing this tune as an instrumental, but it works like grease on a bicycle chain with Butler punching up the melody and bending his strings all over it to make the language impenetrable to all but his rhythm section, and Person who flies over the top making the simple pop song into a work of groove jazz artistry. This album is a welcome introduction to one of the great, all-but-lost talents in jazz history. Billy Butler was a guitarist's guitarist and an innovator in both production and arrangements. This album is solid from top to bottom and reveals the restless spirit of a quiet yet demanding artist. ~ extracts taken from review by Thom Jurek, AMG.

This album is a continuation of display of ability and versatility presented in his first Prestige albums: This is Billy Butler! (Prestige 7622) and Guitar Soul! (Prestige 7734). This goes a bit further than the others in that it presents some music written and arranged by Billy for a guitar choir as well as some cooking things and standards he is known for. Most of the album reunites Billy with Ernie Hayes and Houston Person who were a part of his debut album for Prestige. Jimmy Lewis is no stranger to Billy since they worked together with King Curtis for some time. I think that once you have listened to the latest effort of Billy Butler you'll agree that it is every bit as good as his other two albums. If you are unfamiliar with him up to this point, welcome aboard! ~ Extract from Liner Notes by Sonny Mann.

David "Fathead" Newman - The Many Facets Of David Newman (1969) [re-rip]

This set along with "Bigger & Better" from 1968 'are among tenor-saxophonist David "Fathead" Newman's more commercial efforts. The Many Facets of David Newman is less poppish and more blues-oriented with the lengthy "Children of Abraham" showing some passion.' According to Mr. Yanow he states that 'overall the material is rather weak and has not aged very well. Skip this set in favor of Newman's more recent efforts.' However, I am not sure he truly listened to this album. Even though he did make mention of "Children of Abraham" there is still some great playing and artistry going down across many other tunes found on this LP. Listen with an open mind and judge for yourselves. Enjoy!

Hank Crawford - It's A Funky Thing To Do (1971) [vinyl]

Hank Crawford slides into the electric 70s with this sweet little set of funky tracks - working in a tight small combo format with Richard Tee on electric piano and Cornell Dupree on electric guitar - and grooving in a laidback slinky funk mode that's perfect for his soulful tone on the alto sax! The groove ranges from mellow funk to gentle soul – and the album's title track is an excellent version of "It's A Funky Thing To Do", with Pee Wee Ellis joining the group on electric piano! Other tracks include "Hills Of Love", "You're The One", "Sophisticated Soul", "Kingsize Man", and "Parker's Mood". © Dusty Groove, Inc.

"It's A Funky Thing To Do" was Hank Crawford's final recording for Atlantic after a commercially successful ten-year run. The soulful altoist is backed by a funky rhythm section (either Eric Gale or Cornell Dupree on guitar, keyboardist Richard Tee, Chuck Rainey or Ron Carter on electric bass, and drummer Bernard Purdie), and Crawford as usual plays well.

Gene Ammons - My Way (1971) [vinyl>flac]

Although late in the Prestige jazz funk years, and not in the small combo mode of some of Ammons' best early 70s sides, this is still an excellent batch of tracks - thanks to hip arrangements from Bill Fisher! The format's almost in a Kudu/CTI mode, as larger arrangements envelope Jug's soulful tenor - funking away with a blacksploitation on tracks like "Chicago Breakdown", "Back In Mérida", and a great cover of "What's Going On", all done with tight horns, compressed guitar, and even a bit of strings. There's a few mellower numbers that aren't as great - but these tracks more than make the album worth having! © Dusty Groove America, Inc.

Ammons is joined with some great players on these sessions, in particular Roland Hanna & Ted Dunbar on the 1st Side. On the 2nd side Billy Butler does his thing along with Ron Carter and banging away in the background is the mighty Idris Muhammad. Also with brass and strings added there are some very dynamic grooves going down. Even though this is a latter-day album by Ammons he still blows amazing hard right throughout, Enjoy!
