it's a great night to be a chicagoan and drunk and on a computer...

i have to admit that my tastes have drifted a bit and i no longer get a huge kick out of DG. or maybe i've just become kind of jaded as far as reissues go--there are now more reissues than anyone can possibly get their head around.

i'm still glad they're carrying those maximum pressure cds.

Why they're...they're....aw heck, let DUSTY GROOVE tell you!

Thx Gear! This Japanese group have certainly grown up a lot -- and this beautiful album is their most mature in years! The combo is fronted by singer Ann Sally -- whose English language vocals add a tremendous amount of sophistication to the record -- snaking forth in a cool jazzy style that goes way past the easy bossa remake mode of earlier albums. Sally's voice is incredible, and it's mixed with a well-constructed set of backings by the group, music that is especially heavy in its use of Fender Rhodes! The track list is great, too -- with wonderful remakes of Fred Neil's "The Dolphins", Flora Purim's "Light As A Feather", Herbie Hancock's "Dolphin Dance", and Coltrane's "Naima". Sweet, mellow, jazzy, and wonderfully rich -- the group's best album in years! Italian version of the album features 2 tracks not on the Japanese one -- "Butterfly (Incognito rmx)" and "Sky (Soul Bossa Trio blue rmx)".

The album would be Dolphins

I want to buy some 12" on vinyl that make people dance that I've never heard before. Some reissues that will rock a party in between Marshall Jefferson and "White Lines". Except, nothing like either of those songs. Someone help me out - what crazy world music or reissues will kill on a dance floor (and that dg would carry?)

Obv. I'm being very general I just want to know what ppl are listening to.

Try Willie Bobo's Hell of An Act To Follow LP

― Gear! (Gear!), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:33 (nineteen years ago) link

Willie Bobo -- Hell Of An Act To Follow . . . LP . . . $12.99 (Item: 2151)
Columbia, 1978 Condition: Very Good+ Add View Cart
Nice stuff from Willie -- maybe not as hard and funky as his early 70s work, but very nice in kind of a Latin Club mode, thanks to some great production by Wayne Henderson! Includes his classic take on "Always There" -- which is a great dancefloor jazz jammer -- plus Henderson's groovy stepper "Keep that Same Old Feeling", and the tracks "Together", "Dindi", and "Pisces".

get the fela/roy ayers 12"!

― gaz (gaz), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:34 (nineteen years ago) link

haha these things are cool. Writing for them must be like when Elaine wrote for the J Peterman catalogue on Seinfeld.

sometimes i think those DG blurbs are written by a computer. there are about 20 adjectives they use, seemingly at random.

― |a|m|t|r|s|t| (amateurist), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:36 (nineteen years ago) link

although hell if i had to write blurbs for like 100,000 LPs i'd probably resort to that sort of thing, too.

― |a|m|t|r|s|t| (amateurist), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:37 (nineteen years ago) link

they should hire Chuck for it, although that might result in confusion ("Soul Bossa Trio, who sound an awful lot like Spiritual Vibes but better, but not as good as the Paola Achenza Trio, who are better than Slide Five, or not, I don't remember..."

― Gear! (Gear!), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:40 (nineteen years ago) link

I love reading their blurbs, still.

― Gear! (Gear!), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:40 (nineteen years ago) link

Gareth sounds really weird at the beginning of this thread.

i think chuck would just end accusing 75% of their catalogue of "not rocking" (and he'd be right!)

― |a|m|t|r|s|t| (amateurist), Thursday, 12 August 2004 04:56 (nineteen years ago) link

no some of their catalogue DOES rock, certainly not as hard as Kenny Chesney though!

― Gear! (Gear!), Thursday, 12 August 2004 05:02 (nineteen years ago) link

this reminds me I need to get more soul-flute LPs

― Gear! (Gear!), Thursday, 12 August 2004 05:03 (nineteen years ago) link

fuck yeah!

Going back to the subject of spearheading revivals, wouldn't Dusty Groove be responsible for the interest in library records?
