i think its a case of you having no soul!
― howell huser (chaki), Friday, 16 December 2005 20:50 (eighteen years ago) link
xpost do you mean soul in the Motown sense or in the Grim Reaper sense? cause I'm with you on the latter.

So when I hear it know it's like someone set the studio to "generic funk" and Fresh was cranked out
What strikes me is that despite the fact that hundreds of nominally similar-sounding albums have been made since, Fresh still sounds like the best jazz-funk album ever. It sounds like what the Headhunters were going for when Mike Clark was in the band, except more thought-out, darker and with amazing vocals instead of keyboard jams.

sly's catalog desperately desperately needs some serious remastering/deluxe edition treatment. Riot is still in that lame packaging (at least in the US)...and they left the title track off the cd!
and anyone know what happened to that live set that was supposed to come out a couple years ago? did sly personally nix it?

I've never heard any of the records after Fresh.

The fact that Sony hasn't reissued them inside the US is a fucking joke.

this is not a mistake. There *is* no title track - the tracklisting is intentionally misleading.

absurd
but if you're using these as paragons of funkiness, i think you've got more problems than i do.
enlighten us then funky messiah

OK OK. That's a little absurd. I got a little carried away with my love for Fresh :-)
― sweet earth flying (sweet earth flying), Saturday, 17 December 2005 00:33 (eighteen years ago) link
Yeah, for real. If Fresh isn't a paragon of funkiness, I don't know what is. Whether you like the album or not...you have to admit it's about as funky as it gets.
