1970’s Jazz Fusion & Funk sometimes completely “on” and othertimes musical wallpaper for every boring filler scene in every light filtered “Afternoon Movie” on Channel 7. Uneven overall but very crackin on a number of tunes. At best it’s like “electric”-era Miles Davis or Herbie Hancock’s Headhunters at worst it’s “jazz after dark” silliness. (((((1))))) Loose, funky fusion-funk with fantastic playing ((2)) Mellow, airy flute-laden boredom (though it starts well) that reeks of the double-snap & point “laaadies!” (((3))) Uptempo jazzy, fusion with all sorts of stops/starts but then goes way downtempo and mildly funky/moody. (((4))) Strings, chimes, some slightly cinematic moves. ((((5)))) Lively sound with plenty of horn and electric piano swashes plus good drumming. (((6))) Swingin’ afternoon drive feeling, pretty good horn & bass playing, not so sure about the piano though. (((7))) Synth warble, funky bass and big horns. Gets more wailin’ around the 2:25 mark and a slice of prog for about 40 seconds. ((((8)))) Soulful, funky with backing chorus and “weee-wooo” keyboard swells. (9) Oof! Light as a feather, LeBrie waterbed commercial ads.. “I wanna talk to the single ladies… here on Night Comfort – Movies All Night” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JTnP5dwfS0&feature=related ((((((10)))))) Ah, that’s MUCH better! Totally 70’s street ready funk! So proper 70’s you can hear Fred Sanford yellin’ “You Big Dummy!” from 20 miles away. (((11))) Flutey, fusion/bop with some Middle Eastern scales & classical strings. A lot going on here. ((12)) More airy flute & light percussion and loungey vocals. Chee-ZEE! (((13))) Wild piano scales, guiro (know by some as that winding/creaking sound in the Stones “Gimme Shelter”) marimba, bird chirps (!), more flutes. Singing in Spanish. | ||
