Description:

Originally released by Gallo in 1974, this is a raw, impassioned, stunning set led by bop pianist Kirk Lightsey (a regular sideman for Chet Baker) and saxophonist Rudolph Johnson (from Black Jazz), on a break from touring South Africa with Detroit crooner Lovelace Watkins.A heavy-duty excursion into post-Coltrane spiritual modernism, ranging from the modal, cerebral intensity of the side-long title track Habiba, to the downhome breakbeat groove of There It Is, and the dark glitter of minor-key waltz Fresh Air. Long one of the most desired global jazz LPs, and never before available outside South Africa, Habiba is a forgotten masterpiece of its era. The first of three volumes surveying surely the mightiest Gospel label of them all. Stomping, rollicking gospel music, intermingling with raw soul, searing blues, hard-rocking doo-wop and jazz, and storming r b.Infused and incandescent with the hurting, surging indignation of the Civil Rights movement, here are twenty-four precious scorchers by giants like the Staple Singers and Jimmy Scott, alongside devastating sides by less celebrated names like the Harmonising Five of Burlington, North Carolina, and teen-group the North Philadelphia Juniors, culminating triumphantly with slamming, sanctified versions of Hit The Road Jack and Wade In The Water. Drawn from nigh-impossible-to-find 78s, sevens and LPs, hardly any of these recordings have been reissued since their first release. Presented in a gatefold sleeve, with full-size booklet; beautifully designed, with stunning, rare photographs and original Savoy artwork. Sound restoration and mastering at Abbey Road; pressed at Pallas.Co-curated by Greg Belson, compiler of Divine Disco; with deep, extensive notes by Robert Marovich, author of A City Called Heaven: Chicago and the Birth of Gospel Music (University of Illinois), and host of the award-winning radio show Gospel Memories. The second of three volumes presents sublime crossings of gospel with the soul, funk and jazz of the Black Power era. Twenty cuts dot dazzlingly between Muscle Shoals soul, screwed breakbeat, Mizells-style fusion, disco and proto-house. Triumphant re-workings of Sly Stone, Donny Hathaway and Herbie Hancock’s Head Hunters will have listeners throwing their pew cushions into the air. Seventeen gems of fierce funk, rapturous soul and transcendent disco and boogie, super-charged with celebration and affirmativeness, loaded with roaring choirs, rocking horns and popping bass guitars, from the years leading up to Savoy’s acquisition by Malaco. An extensive, sumptuous survey of surely the mightiest Gospel label of them all.Sixty-one gems of stomping, rollicking, desolate, ravishing gospel music, intermingling with soul, blues, doo-wop, jazz, r b, disco and boogie.Presented as a sixty-page mini-book, with CDs suspended in card sleeves; perfect-bound, exorbitantly expensive to produce, lovely. The last living master of surti singing, a precursor of the ancient Islamic devotional music of qawwali. Wonderful. Both LPs are superior, 180g pressings, well-sleeved.The more expensive LP is presented by Verve / Acoustic Sounds: a 2020 remastering from the original tapes; top-quality pressing; rigid, Stoughton sleeve.

Frontline and Humpty Dumpty are unreleased bangers from 2004 and 2006. War Wid and Prangman are classics retrieved from small pressings in the same grime glory years. A soul music deity kept close to the heart of fans stretching all the way from the Blackpool Mecca of the early 1970s, right through to Moodymann. Recorded in 1977 for the Monument subsidiary Sound Stage 7, sticking with Nashville deejay John Richbourg as producer, her second album is a terrific mix of ballads like her hit I m His Wife (You re Just A Friend) and classy dancers like I Had A Fight With Love and Northern favourite Color My World Blue (less sugar-coated than The Supremes ). Chuck Jackson s cousin. A timely return to Gania s deeply spiritual music, with its specific mission to heal, and fight evil. After the dizzying intensity of the opening song, Aicha offers more relaxed interpretations of the Gnawa ritual repertoire than Colours Of The Night, and a deeper, gentler sound. The album shines a light on Mahmoud s virtuoso guimbri playing and mastery of Gnawa songcraft. It stands out amongst his many releases. Recorded in his home town of Essaouira, with a small group of intimates; originally released in Morocco as a cassette in the late 1990s. With extensive sleeve notes — and this first pressing comes with a print of the cover artwork, to celebrate the tenth Hive Mind release. We ship worldwide.
