Formado em 1968 no Brooklin pelos irmãos Ric Wilson (sax, vocals), Lou Wilson (trumpet, vocals) nascidos no Panamá, e Carlos Wilson (trombone, vocals), acompanhados por Claude "Coffee" Cave (keyboard), Omar Mesa (guitar), Bundie Cenas (bass) e Charlie Prado (drums), o grupo Mandrill incorporou ao som Funk música latina, caribenha e jazz, dosado com influências de blues, psicodelia, música africana e rock, criando um groove rico em sonoridade e estilos. A coletânea Best Of lançada em 1974 traz clássicos como Fencewalk e Mango Meat.

Mandrill is a funk band formed in Brooklyn, New York City in 1968. The band was formed by three brothers: Carlos Wilson (trombone, vocals), Lou Wilson (trumpet, vocals) and Ric Wilson (sax, vocals). The brothers were born in Panama and grew up in the Bedford-Stuyvesant area of Brooklyn. Other members of the band included Bundy Cenac (Bass), Neftali Santiago (drums, percussion, vocals), Juaquin Jessup (lead guitar, percussion, vocals), Charles Padro (drums), Claude 'Coffee' Cave II (keyboards, percussion, vocals) and Fudgy Key (bass) and Omar Mesa (Guitar).
Parts of their songs had been sampled by many hip-hop acts such as Public Enemy, Shawty Lo, Big L, Kanye West and Jin. Beneath funk they combine many other styles like latin, salsa, rock, blues and soul to create their own colourful style.
Some of their songs have been used in the soundtracks of a couple of movies: The Greatest (1977) directed by Tom Gries and Monte Hellman; and The Warriors (1979) directed by Walter Hill. The band continues to perform live; their signature song is arguably "Fencewalk."

WAR - Anthology
Sempre achei que boas coletâneas são um bom ponto de partida para criar interesse na obra de um determinado artista. Mais que um mero projeto caça-níqueis as compilações, pra mim, ajudam na divulgação do nome do artista e consequentemente no aumento de fãs. Difícil é você agradar fãs mais ardorosos que já acompanhavam toda a discografia até o momento do lançamento de uma antologia.
Dito isto, conheça um pouco do vasto repertório da banda WAR através desta WAR - Anthology, versão compacta. Se por um lado faltam músicas importantes que marcaram a carreira desta banda multi-racial surgida em 1969 com uma força ex-Animal Eric Burdon, após ver a banda tocando em um buteco fuleiro na Califórnia usando o nome WAR em plena guerra do Vietnam, quando a palava de ordem era Love and Peace, por outro lado, é uma síntese que respeita as fases do grupo desde Spill the Wine do primeiro dos dois gravados com Eric Burdon "Eric Burdon Declares WAR", até hits menos expressivos como Galaxy e You Got The Power no começo dos anos 1980.
War, originally called Eric Burdon & War and often typeset as WAR, is an american funk band from California, known for the hit songs "Low Rider", "Spill the Wine", "The Cisco Kid" and "Why Can't We Be Friends?". Formed in 1969, War was a musical crossover band which fused elements of rock, funk, jazz, Latin music, R&B, and reggae. The band also transcended racial and cultural barriers with a multi-ethnic line-up. The year was 1969, and the band had the nerve to carry the name War at a time when peace was the slogan in an anti-Vietnam War America. Founder and singer/keyboardist Lonnie Jordan claimed that the band's goal was to spread a message of brotherhood and harmony, using instruments and voices to speak out against racism, hunger, gangs, crimes, and turf wars, and promote hope and the spirit of brotherhood. Eric Burdon & War began playing live shows to audiences throughout Southern California before entering into the studio to record their debut album Eric Burdon Declares "War". The album's key track, the erotic, spaced-out, Latin-flavored "Spill the Wine", was a hit and launched the band's career.The band has sold over 50 million records to date. Although War's lyrics are often socio-political in nature, their music usually had a laid-back, California funk vibe.
The War's music has been sampled and recorded by many singers and groups, ranging from R&B/pop singers to nu metal band and hip-hop groups.

Fred Wesley and the J.B.'s - Damn Right I Am Somebody (1974)
Damn Right I Am Somebody é um dos trabalhos solos do trombonista da banda de Mr. Dynamite. Produzido e lançado pela gravadora de James Brown, este álbum mostra os J.B.’s politizados e contestadores bem no auge de suas carreiras. Grooves matadores, solos épicos com influências do que viria a se chamar, décadas depois, de acid jazz e levadas hipnóticas a la afrobeat. Está tudo aí, e colocado de forma brilhante pelos reis da funk music. Aperte o play em Same Beat, abra espaço na sala aumente o som e entenda porque o 'One Groove' dos J.B.'s é insuperável!
An incredible album. The set starts with a wonderful conversational bit, rapping and musing on the idea of "Damn Right, I Am Somebody", showing the group in a political and righteous mode for the first time ever. The grooves then kick in with the same heavy funk as on earlier records, but also a nice nod towards experimental production from strange fade ups and fade downs, to stark time and rhythm changes, and even bits of electronics used to create some very cool moments in the grooves! The whole thing's as dead funky as can be, and is stuffed with insane classics like "Blow Your Head", "Same Beat", "Damn Right I am Somebody", "I'm Payin' Taxes, What am I Buyin'", and a great cover of Marvin Gaye's "You Sure Love to Ball"! Get up and groove!
01. Damn Right I Am Somebody
02. Blow Your Head
03. I'm Payin' Taxes, What Am I Buyin'
04. Same Beat, Pt. 1
05. If You Don't Get It the First Time, Back Up & Try It Again, Parrty
06. Make We What You Want Me to Be
07. Going to Get a Thrill
08. You Sure Love to Ball

Som Três - Som Três Show (1968)
Segundo álbum, gravado em 1968 de um dos mais competentes trios formados na década de 60, cujo líder era César Camargo Mariano. Perfeita simbiose de estilos em cada faixa, algumas com naipe de sopros. Jazz, Soul, Bossa, Samba, destilados pelo talento de César, Toninho e Sabá. Vários destaques, entre os quais, "The World Goes On" de Quincy Jones, " Amazonas", de João Donato, "The Look Of Love", de Burt Bacharach, "Wach What Happens", de Michel Legrand e "Jungle", composição de Mariano. Baixe agora e garanta o 'arrasta-pé' da semana!
You won't find a groovier group than Som Tres and if you need proof, check out this fantastic album! The group were a post-bossa trio led by pianist Cesar Camargo Mariano and they grooved with a sound that started with the core piano trio sound of the bossa age, but which was also expanded a lot with late 60s orchestrations. The result is an incredibly strong batch of tunes that groove from the get-go and which soar along the best baroque lines of the Blue Brazil generation. The whole album's great with some light vocals, and lots of cool instrumentals.

02. Falsa Baiana

The Brand New Heavies - Trunk Funk: The Best of BNH (1999)
18 of their best recordings from the legendary acid jazz group that started their career as part of the Talkin' Loud label family.
The Heavies are solidly rooted in the funk tradition and they don't let you forget it. Whether it be the funky basslines inspiring memories of Parliament or the intricate drum breaks to begin some of the tracks - you could really be excused for thinking you were back in the 70s.
The vocals by N'Dea Davenport, Siedah Garrett and Carleen Anderson are just awe-inspiring. All three ladies can move from singing very high-pitched right down to the kind of voice you associate with smoky bars - and they can do this on a dime. The music is even better. An album made for parties, you'll be dancing and happy!

George Benson And Jack Mcduff - Remastered (2007)
A double-length package of organ/guitar greatness and a set that features key 60's work by Hammond hero Jack McDuff and guitarist George Benson! First up is The New Boss Guitar Of George Benson - the first album ever cut by Benson as a leader, a cooker of a soul jazz set, recorded back when George was the guitarist in Jack McDuff's classic 60's quartet! The album's almost a McDuff Quartet one since Jack's on Hammond and Red Holloway is on tenor but the group's slightly different too, with the surprising additions of Montego Joe on drums, and Ronnie Boykins on bass! Benson's guitar is amazing throughout, sharp-edged and played with a tightness that's quite different than most of his later work and titles include "Shadow Dancers", "The Sweet Alice Blues", "Just Another Sunday", "Easy Living", and "Rock A Bye". Next up is Hot Barbeque one of our all-time favorite albums from Brother Jack McDuff! The combo here is great with a young George Benson hard-wailing on guitar, cutting lines so fast and furious it's hard to believe especially if you only know his later work. The legendary Joe Dukes is on drums dancing all over the place under Brother Jack's great groovy solos and Red Holloway completes the group on tenor sax! The title track's got a rare vocal refrain with Jack shouting out "Hot Barbeque" over the organ and other cuts include "Briar Patch", "Hippy Dip", "601 1/2 North Poplar", and "The Three Day Thang". Try this and dance too!

Can You Dig It ? Thrillin' Rare Grooves From Jazz To Soul 'N' Brazil To Boogaloo (2007)
We can definitely dig it, especially since the music on the set is all pretty darn groovy! The package is one of the best in the Brown Sugar series of compilations, and it's got a really tight sort of approach, a mixture of shortish tracks in jazz, Latin, soul, and funk styles, spun out as a really extended collection, one that changes sounds quickly from track to track as the excitement builds! There's a feel here that reminds us of some of the Ace Mod Jazz titles, but with a bit more soul and boogaloo thrown into the mix too and the collection features loads of great tracks that include "Muscle Soul" by Phil Upchurch, "New York Soul" by Ray Barretto, "Up & At It" by Cannonball Adderley, "Grits & Gravy" by Eric Kloss, "Jogo Da Vida" by Tamba Trio, "Fried Bananas" by Benny Golson, "O Jornaleiro" by Toni Tornado, "Spanish Rice" by Clark Terry & Chico O'Farrill, "Gimme Some Love" by Joe Cuba, "Swamp People" by Pucho & The Latin Soul Brothers, "The Houston Express" by Houston Person, "Itch & Scratch" by Rufus Thomas, "Feeling Good" by Andy Bey & The Bey Sisters, "Uhuru" by Ramsey Lewis, "Afro Texas" by Letta Mbulu, and "We Got More Soul" by The Pazant Brothers. Enjoy it and dance!

De La Soul - The Platinum Collection (2007)
Um dos grandes nomes do Hip Hop Underground, De La Soul. Ao lado do A Tribe Called Quest, o trio revolucionou o rap ao usar fragmentos de músicas nas suas composições até então ignoradas pelos rappers, DJs e produtores. Jazz, country, pop entre outros estilos entraram na fórmula de sucesso do De La Soul, sem nenhum preconceito; vide Say No Go, rimada em cima de um hit da dupla 'Blue-eyed soul' Daryl Hall & John Oates.
This is undeniably one of the most important group ever in hip hop. The Platinum Collection is great and the music sounds even fresher than ever! All the cuts are here "Me, Myself & I", "Say No Go", Buddy and soooooo much more!

Pulp Fusion - The Harder They Come - Vol 7
Mais um volume da série Pulp Fusion, The Harder They Come, o número 7. Dê uma olhada nas faixas na lista abaixo e com certeza não será fácil reconhecer metade dos artistas e os nomes conhecidos como Kool & the Gang e Funkadelic também participam com tracks obscuras, do começo de carreira. É tudo intencional, pois nestas coletâneas os produtores buscaram os artistas que na época do lançamento fizeram pouco ou nenhum sucesso, só que com o passar dos anos sobreviveram pela altissima qualidade de seus trabalhos. Confira!
The Pulp Fusion series makes a funky move towards the dancefloor, shifting from its earlier blend of older funk and jazz tunes into a more club-styled set that features some wonderful boogie groovers! The grooves here are often very open and rhythmically progressive, not your usual mainstream funk, although some of the cuts are certainly by familiar artists and more in the mode of the looser rhythms and complicated changes that were sometimes ignored back in the day, but which have come to be classics many generations later! Original 70's Ghetto Jazz & Funk Classics!
01. Funkadelic - A Joyful Process
02. George Benson - Dance
03. Harlem Underground Band - Smokin' Cheeba Cheeba
04. Daniel Salinas - Straussmania
05. Kool & The Gang - Electric Frog (Part 1)
06. Grant Green - In The Middle
07. Gordon Staples And The String Thing - Strung Out
08. Fuzzy Haskins - The Fuzz And Da Boog

Emilio Santiago - Primeiro disco
O primeiro disco de um dos maiores cantores brasileiros: Emilio Santiago. É uma pena que ao longo da carreira ele se dedicou a projetos musicais de qualidade, digamos, duvidosa. Se ele tivesse seguido a linha deste petardo lançado em 1975, hoje teria sem dúvida respeito pra dar e vender e talvez menos din din no bolso. Elucubrações à parte neste disco ele foi acompanhado por grandes nomes da música brasileira como o baterista Wilson das Neves, pelo trio Azimuth além da produção musical que ficou nas mãos de João Donato. O repertório tem a clássica versão de Bananeira, que virou break beat nas produções dos DJs em todo mundo, e clássicos do samba e do soul brasuca como Nega Dina de Zé Keti e Brother de Jorge Ben. Baixe e Dance!
One of the Brazilian funk classics of the 70s the debut album of soulful singer Emilio Santiago and Santiago's vocals are tremendous, equally at home with a hip grooving soul tune as they are with some of the album's mellower, jazzier tracks. Guest artists on the set include Brazilian jazz Joao Donato, Azymuth, and Wilson das Neves and the album includes the funky breaking classic "Bananeira", an amazing version of a song written by Donato and Gilberto Gil, served up by Santiago in a version that's easily the best ever! Other tracks include a great version of Jorge Ben's "Brother", plus "Quero Alegria", "Depois", "Doa a Quem Doer", and "La Mulata", a Latin groover by Marcos Valle, enjoy it!

Other tracks include a great version of Jorge Ben's "Brother", plus "Quero Alegria", "Depois", "Doa a Quem Doer", and "La Mulata", a Latin groover by Marcos Valle, enjoy it!
01. Bananeira

Nina Simone - Remixed & Reimagined
Esta série Remixed & Reimagined tem o seu valor que é apresentar grandes nomes do Jazz às novas gerações através de remixagens com DJs conhecidos da galera mais "in" e isso é impagável para sobrevivência da boa música . O disco tem ótimas versões de clássicos desta grande cantora, pianista, grande performer e revolucionária e outras nem tanto. Baixe por sua conta e risco, que nem é tão arriscado assim, só pela voz da Nina já vale cada megabyte baixado!
The music of the late great Nina Simone is revisited on "Remixed & Reimagined". Unlike remix albums of Blondie (1995's "Remixed Remade Remodeled") and Shirley Bassey (2001's "The Remix Album...Diamonds Are Forever"), "Remixed & Reimagined" features remixes of 13 separate songs, with no repeats. Also unlike those remix albums, this one does not have any house/club/dance remixes (altho' "To Love Somebody" is a funky up-tempo neo-Motown/Phil Spector's Wall of Sound style remix); most of the remixes are similar to (but not as good as) Joe Cladussell's remix of Nina Simone's "Feelin' Good", found on the first "Verve/Remixed" album; the sound/style is called "Chill House or Lounge" on the back of the album.

Larry Graham and Graham Central Station - My Radio Sure Sounds Good To Me (1978)
O baixista Larry Graham, de quem Prince declarou ter roubado todas as linhas de baixo, no centro do Furacão Disco Music, em pleno ano de 1978 e... Ouça e veja porque ele é um dos melhores e mais inventivos baixistas de todos os tempos. O que? Não sabe de quem se trata? What a Shame my friend!! Ele foi o baixista do Sly Stone e inventou o "slap", a técnica de tocar o baixo batendo nas cordas, mais ritmo, menos harmona! Um absurdo!
