- NOTES
for internal use only
----------------------------------------------------------
This Dayton, OH, band came to typify swinging,
effervescent, and melodic funk in an era when Parliament,
Funkadelic, and other outfits were getting bogged down and
burned out. Zapp, unlike the other P-Funk units, had their
own personality divorced from George Clinton, so much so a
listener might not get the connection unless they read the
album notes. While both Zapp and Roger had enough hits to
make separate greatest hits compilations, All the Greatest
Hits works well due to the song inclusions and the level
of skill. Zapp's first hit, "More Bounce to the Ounce"
with it's hard-hitting funk with jazzy underpinnings, set
the template. Tracks from Roger Troutman's solo debut,
like the great "Do It Roger" and a cover of "Heard It
Through the Grapevine," seemed to sap the strength from
the Zapp name, although the band was on them too. Zapp's
1983 near-classic "Heartbreaker 1 and 2" still amazes with
its minimal, lean sound. The synth-based sound also served
Troutman well on the mid-'80s solo hit "In the Mix" and
Zapp's ballad "Computer Love." As the Zapp never did
regain its commercial footing by the late '80s, Roger
fared better solo and turned in the romantic ballad and
surprise hit "I Wanna Be Your Man." All The Great Hits
diminishes its appeal by adding disposable tracks like
"Curiosity '93 (Remix)" and the live "Midnight Hour-Live
'93 (Remix)." While the hits are indeed here, a fan could
just as easily obtain a 1980-84 album of Zapp or Roger to
get a better sense of the importance of the music.
Another Quality Release from OSC!!
Enjoy!!
