The Best of Mandrill

The Best of Mandrill (1975) more music like this

by Mandrill

Rounding up the greatest grooves from the band's first five albums, right up until it left for United Artists in 1975, The Best of Mandrill is a top compilation for one of the most freewheeling bands of the early '70s. Unsurprisingly for a funk group, Mandrill excelled at recording catchy, well-played material with deep grooves, though unlike many ...

Mandrill

Mandrill (1970) more music like this

by Mandrill

Mandrill's debut isn't half the album it could've been, since the band's talented musicianship and desire to experiment were often subverted -- by ambitions of pop success as well as a dry, over-serious approach to music-making. The three Wilson brothers, though masters of over a dozen instruments, still hadn't mastered the added burden of ...

Funk Classics: The 70's

Funk Classics: The 70's (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

Funk Classics: The 70's includes many of the style's biggest hits: "Sex Machine" by James Brown, "Too Hot to Stop" by the Bar-Kays, "Get the Funk Out Ma Face" by the Brothers Johnson, "Hollywood Swinging" by Kool & the Gang, and "Up for the Down Stroke" by Parliament. Keith Farley, All Music Guide

Fencewalk: The Anthology

Fencewalk: The Anthology (1997) more music like this

by Mandrill

Right from the start of this two-disc collection, with the track that shares the band's name, it's clear that Mandrill had some seriously heavy funk credentials -- and broad ranging ones at that. Only early Santana and War gained the same level of attention and appreciation for their exciting, invigorating Latin-funk hybrids. Fencewalk: The ...

Mandrill Is

Mandrill Is (1972) more music like this

by Mandrill

Apparently learning from the mistakes of its debut, Mandrill crafted a follow-up with fewer stylistic detours than the first record, but much more energy and greater maturity. The two singles, "Ape Is High" and "Git It All," are unhinged performances from all involved that have the sense of musical invigoration so key to a funk band -- and so ...

Just Outside of Town

Just Outside of Town (1973) more music like this

by Mandrill

It lacked the delicious hooks and tight funk of Composite Truth, but Just Outside of Town was as solid and confident a piece of music-making as the band ever accomplished. The single "Mango Meat" is a tough Latin funk number with some inspired group harmonizing, and Mandrill stretched out with a pair of love songs, "Never Die" and the aptly titled ...

The Ultimate Collection

The Ultimate Collection (2000) more music like this

by Mandrill

Not will only will Mandrill's music make you dizzy, the price tag of this limited-edition four-CD box set will too. Be prepared to shell out more than $50 for this 38-track collection, featuring their first four Polydor albums (Mandrill, Mandrill Is, Composite Truth, and Just Outside of Town). Mandrill's music is practically unpeggable, much like ...

Composite Truth

Composite Truth (1973) more music like this

by Mandrill

Composite Truth is Mandrill's most successful album, commercially as well as artistically. Although the band's sense of freewheeling experimentation had been tempered, its gradual transition to a straight-ahead funk band was made perfect with two of the biggest hits of its career: "Hang Loose" and "Fencewalk." "Hang Loose" is all over the place ...

MVP Vintage Funk, Vol. 1

MVP Vintage Funk, Vol. 1 (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

What makes funk "vintage," as opposed to "classic"? In any case, this has a somewhat more interesting track selection than React's similar Classic Funk, Vol. 1, although the quality is no better or worse. Along with well-known hits by Charles Wright and Curtis Mayfield, you get tracks by James Brown ("Funky Drummer"), Edwin Starr ("Easin' In"), ...

Super Bad on Celluloid (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Subtitled "Music from '70s Black Cinema," this 14-track collection is a sample of when great music was a predominate part of every Blaxploitation movie in general release. Big hits like "Freddie's Dead" by Curtis Mayfield, "Theme From Shaft" by Isaac Hayes and "Trouble Man" by Marvin Gaye, sit alongside well-remembered moments from the same genre: ...

We Are One (1977) more music like this

by Mandrill

In 1977 Mandrill showed signs of having listened to fusion and had more or less left the Latin rock behind. The African influences were also granted less room on their records, and if they still stuck out from the bulk of funk bands, the gap was slowly closing. We Are One starts with the two dance hits "Can You Get It" and "Funky Monkey," complete ...

New Worlds (1978) more music like this

by Mandrill

Their second album for Arista, 1978's New Worlds was Mandrill's self produced and updated, plunge into more mainstream waters. Hoping, perhaps, to capitalize on some of the disco gold that propelled much lesser musicians to the top of the charts, many of the songs on New Worlds have an infectious groove and panache more suited to the dance floor ...

Though it's shorter than most of the volumes in the series, oddly enough Soul Classics, Vol. 5 offers a more diverse range of sounds, spanning upbeat soul like King Floyd's "Groove Me," danceable tracks such as Marvin Gaye's "Got to Give it Up." and KC & the Sunshine Band's "I Get Lifted," as well as smoother tracks like Mandrill's "You Can Get It ...
