Label : Wewantsounds
Value :
Funky jazz and a touch of soul -- all pulled from the short-lived but
legendary Mainstream Records -- home to a whole host of hip artists in
the early half of the 70s! Mainstream picked things up from Impulse,
Prestige, and other soulful labels of the 60s -- allowing jazz musicians
to stretch out with a new sense of expression, but often in ways that
hit a mighty nice groove -- kind of a 70s update of the soul jazz modes
of the generation before, but with a few spiritual jazz touches too!
You'll know a few names here from older Blue Note recordings, and
they've got an updated 70s vibe, and are matched with some hip younger
talents too -- all in a great array of grooves that's superbly selected
throughout.
