| "The last decade or so has seen a flood of |
| compilations from the funky end of jazz so another |
| one - and a double one at that - hardly seems to be |
| something to get too excited about. But it is. |
| "Funky End" is a superlative collection of familiar |
| and not so familiar funk tunes from a diverse range |
| of artists. It not only includes such funkmeisters |
| as James Brown, Parliament and the Average White |
| Band but also giants from the jazz world like Miles |
| Davis, Pharoah Sanders, Donald Byrd and Roy Ayers. |
| Stand-out tracks are far too many to mention, |
| although a personal favourite is the jaw-dropping |
| cover by Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66 of Buffalo |
| Springfield's "For What It's Worth". With such |
| variety Funky End could easily have become a |
| patchwork, but it manages to avoid the pitfall of |
| many compilations and retain a sense of unity. And |
| unity is what the funk is all about. Awesome" |
| |
| Weighing in at just over two and a half hours, "The |
| Funky End" is a seriously heavyweight contender to |
| the oft-disputed funk compilation category. |
| Containing killer cuts from such luminaries as Roy |
| Ayers, Herbie Hancock, Donald Byrd and Jimmy Smith, |
| the collection oozes pure quality, which ranges from |
| downtempo classics such as 'Everybody Loves the |
| Sunshine' to the storming saxophone dancefloor |
| madness that takes place 'After Midnight'. With |
| classic tracks provided by Parliament, George |
| Benson, Terry Callier and Nuyorican Soul amongst |
| others, The Funky End is an exhaustive selection |
| spanning the full funk spectrum (although music of |
| the 80s is sadly under-represented). Overall then, |
| this collection delivers knockout funk which |
| certainly hit this music fan. Its 'champion'. |
| |
| Seems this had a few releases, one on the Verve |
| label (this rip), one on the Universal Jazz imprint |
| which had 40 tracks and also on the Phantom label, |
| according to amazon.com. Not quite sure why, perhaps |
| for 2 different zones (i.e. USA and Europe) or |
| something, anyway this is a dope collective of |
| classic funky soul, so enjoy it! |
