1977 // Yuji Ohno // The Inugamis


Another obscure soundtrack by Yuji Ohno !

1973 // CHARLES EARLAND // LEAVING THIS PLANET


A definite departure from the type of earthy, groove-oriented soul-jazz he usually embraced, Leaving This Planet is perhaps Charles Earland's most ambitous album -- not necessarily his best, but certainly his most surprising. Responding to the fusion revolution, Earland plays keyboards and various synthesizers in addition to his usual Hammond B-3 organ and thrives in a very electric setting. The album (reissued on a 79-minute CD in 1993) isn't fusion in the same sense as Miles Davis, Larry Coryell or Weather Report -- rather, he incorporates funk and rock elements in a manner not unlike the early-'70s experiments of tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson and trumpeter Freddie Hubbard. And in fact, those greats (as well as trumpeter Eddie Henderson) are among the superb soloists featured. Whether the Philadelphian is embracing Hub's "Red Clay" or Henderson's "Recorda-Me" or fine compositions of his own (which range from the congenial, pleasant "Brown Eyes" to the abstract "Warp Factor 8"), he leaves no doubt just how much he's enjoying this surprising change of pace.

Goblin



This is my own compilation of some of my favorites songs.
For those who discover this group, They are mostly known for their Dario Argento's sountrack like 'profondo rosso' or 'dawn of the dead' but their discography is huge and really interesting.
It's a kind of UFO for me : I don't know why I like their music but I like it really much !
I have been certainly traumatized by a Argento movie when I was young :)

Operation Heritage


After your request, here is OPERATION HERITAGE !

The French Jazz-Funk was born. It's not a badly imitated American funk. This music succeeded in being a crossroad, a hub of Jazz and popular music. In other words, a music both wholly accessible and skillful and at the same time dancable and cerebral. It couldn't wait any longer to make this music known. Come and enjoy the sound of the groovy French hippies of CORTEX, the powerful Funk of ICE ( "the seven Americans in Paris"), the marvelous melodies (check out the loops!!!) of Daniel Janin and Jean-Claude Pierric, the beat of Harlem Pop Trotters, the disco-funk of Etienne Cap or the jazz-funk of Chute Libre. This is pure roots and funky music from the 70's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
