Popis - COSMIC FUNK & SPIRITUAL S:
Bob Thiele's Flying Dutchman label is one of the most important jazz labels of the 1970s and responsible for the discovery of Gil Scott-Heron, Leon Thomas and Lonnie Liston Smith. BGP has secured the exclusive world license for the catalogue and our first release is this deluxe overview of the career of Lonnie Liston Smith. By the time Smith made his first album as a leader he had extensive experience as a sideman. He had worked with Max Roach, Art Blakey and Roland Kirk. Then he joined up with Pharaoh Sanders, playing on his hit album "Karma". He worked with Gato Barbieri and played on Miles Davis album "On The Corner". His success with Miles led to a deal with Flying Dutchman where he released five albums, the best tracks of which are featured here. Lonnie mixed his talent for accessible jazz with a philosophy of peace and understanding and his music was tagged Cosmic Jazz. His third album "Expansions" proved to be the breakthrough and the title track, featured here, is one of the most instantly recognisable in the world of jazz funk and dance music. It is an anthem of the UK club scene, sampled and covered on numerous occasions. Lonnie is a hero to both the UK soul boys and the world-wide Acid Jazz crew. This compilation is mastered directly from the original tapes. Expansions, A Chance For Peace and Get Down Everybody (Its Time For World Peace) and the rest have never sounded better. Lonnies beautiful jazz playing rings out on the tracks Meditations and Astral Traveling. The booklet includes an exclusive interview with Lonnie, who discussed his career and his influences recently.
