Psych-Funk 101 (1968-1975) is the debut
release from World Psychedelic Funk
Classics and presents itself as 'a
global psychedelic funk curriculum',
complete with a 'course description' and
'supplemental listening' in its copious
notes (found either on the handsome
gatefold sleeve of the vinyl or the
36-page booklet of the CD).

The title may be a little misleading
since some tracks contain funk and some
contain psych with a geniune melding of
the two not always apparent, but
nonetheless this is chock full of
amazing and eye-opening stuff. The only
names I was previously familiar with
were Ethiopian jazz legend Mulatu
Astatke (who doesn't quite reach his
usual heights here) and French Zeuhl
dudes Eskaton (who do) but I'll
certainly be investigating the others
further, particularly Turkey's Husnu
Ozkartal Oskestrasi and Italy's Armando
Sciassia whose bassy grooves pretty much
blew me away.

Hopefully there are many more of these
to come.

NOTE: Start of first track doesn't sound
that crisp. No chance to record that one
better. Maybe someone does the CD
version, plz.
