Pure Funk

Pure Funk (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Since Pure Disco was a success, Mercury decided to assemble a sequel, Pure Funk. Like its predecessor, Pure Funk is a terrific 20-track collection of funk classics, from Rick James"Super Freak" to Parliament's "Flashlight." A couple of songs are marginally funk -- it's hard to call the kitsch-fest "Kung Fu Fighting" or Earth, Wind & Fire's sultry ...

The Very Best of Kool & the Gang

The Very Best of Kool & the Gang (1999) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Spanning the band's early-'70s genesis as an unhinged funk congregation and their later resurgence with urbane R&B balladry and synth-inflected disco, The Very Best of Kool & the Gang may not be a unified collection, but it is the first to offer every hit that's expected -- as well as a few that aren't -- from the band's long career. The emphasis ...

Millennium Party: Funk

Millennium Party: Funk (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

After offering comprehensive overviews of funk with the multi-volume series In Yo' Face and Phat Trax, Rhino wisely distilled those two sets into one indispensable single disc, Millennium Party: Funk. Boasting 20 songs, all of which are indisputable classics, Millennium Party is the best single-disc sampler of '70s and early-'80s funk available. ...

Wild and Peaceful

Wild and Peaceful (1973) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Prior to James "JT" Taylor adding pop flavor vocals, which help garner a handful of top selling albums, this was Kool & the Gang's most successful album, spawning three bonafide R&B hits. Produced by Robert Bell, and featuring Donal Boyce's incredulous vocals, these songs have held up well. The fast, chugging "Jungle Boogie" was a club favorite, ...

Gold

Gold (2005) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Believe it or not, Gold is the first compilation with U.S. distribution to provide a fair and rather thorough glance at Kool & the Gang's career from 1969 through 1987. Dozens upon dozens of other sets either focus on one of the group's distinct eras or attempt clumsily to appease those who want "Jungle Boogie" and "Joanna" in one spot. The ...

The Best of Kool & the Gang 1969-1976

The Best of Kool & the Gang 1969-1976 (1993) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Although Kool & the Gang became pop superstars in the 1980s on the strength of J.T. Taylor's silky voice and several catchy arrangements, R&B fans regard their true glory days as the 1970s. The New Jersey-based ensemble patented a jazz-tinged funk approach keyed by Robert "Kool" Bell's basslines, red-hot horn lines, chunky keyboards and guitar ...

All-Star Jock Jams features a broad variety of popular up-tempo anthems from 17 popular music artists. Featured songs include House of Pain's "Jump Around," Moby's "Go," Kernkraft's "Zombie Nation," and Britney Spears' "Baby One More Time," in addition to many others. There are a few songs that stand out as odd yet still fun inclusions: Twisted ...

Pulp Fiction [MCA Collectors Edition] (2002) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

The soundtrack to Quentin Tarantino's darkly funny crime classic Pulp Fiction manages to recreate the film's wildly careening sense of style, violence, and humor by concentrating on the surf music that comprises the bulk of the movie's incidental music and adding a few sexy oldies integral to the film's story ("Let's Stay Together," "Son of a ...

Gangthology (2003) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

A group with two distinct careers (and a matching fan base for each), Kool & the Gang recorded dozens of great sides during their 20-year career, but anthologists have often floundered when attempting to sum up the group with a decade-spanning collection. The problem is always the same: what's the correct ratio of early material (organic funk jams ...

That '70s Show Presents That '70s Album: Jammin' (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

That '70s Show Presents That '70s Album: Jammin' is based on the Fox sitcom That '70s Show -- a somewhat bawdy but harmless comedy about teens in the Me Decade -- and the CD mimics the show's sentiment and attitude quite accurately. The songs are mostly oldie radio staples and include Wild Cherry's "Play That Funky Music," the Average White Band's ...

Ultimate Disco: 30th Anniversary Collection (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

Madacy's Ultimate Disco: 30th Anniversary Collection sticks to familiar singles, most of which went gold or platinum shortly after release. It would by hard to come by a much better introduction to the style -- especially considering the breadth (fittingly enough, there are 30 tracks) -- but one significant stumbling block is that the selections ...

Disco Nights, Vol. 2: The Best of Disco Funk (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

Featuring a dozen of the best bubblegum hits from the late '70s, this compilation makes for nice lightweight listening. Some songs, such as Parliament's dancefloor classic "Flashlight," still sound as good now as they did the first time around. Others, such as "Shake Your Groove Thing" by Peaches & Herb, make perfect background noise at keg ...

Funk Classics: The 70's, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

A strong collection of '70s funk jams that will liven any party. The track lengths are inconsistent: Funkadelic's "Not Just Knee Deep" (15:08) escaped the chopping block, but others, like Rick James' "You and I," are edited radio versions. Selections include Instant Funk's "I Got My Mind Made Up," B. T. Express' "Do It Til You're Satisfied," and ...

Mr. 3000 (2004) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Although the soundtrack to Bernie Mac's baseball comedy Mr. 3000 might be a somewhat predictable mix of classic funk, disco, and soul hits, that doesn't make it any less enjoyable. In fact, the bulk of the album is just as good, if not better, than many compilations of these styles. Mr. 3000's beginning is particularly strong, with the triple ...

Funk Explosion (2004) more music like this

Similar in set-up and scope to Pure Funk, just as Disco Love Collection -- released at the same time by the same label -- appeared to be patterned after Pure Disco, Funk Explosion includes 14 tracks, the majority of which have appeared on several other compilations. As with Disco Love Collection, this is a half-hearted introduction to funk, and it ...

Funk Collection (2002) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Funk Collection seems like a silly title for a Kool & the Gang compilation -- it's about as silly as titling a Marvin Gaye compilation Soul Collection -- but it does help signify that it covers the group's pre-pop crossover phase. This, like so many other sets, demonstrates how they were more artistically successful during this era, despite not ...

Originally a two-disc set in the U.K., Kool & the Gang's The Hits: Reloaded gets its release in a one-disc edition for America. Gone are the group's collaborations with folks like Beverley Knight, Blazin' Squad, and Atomic Kitten (who turned in a ridiculously fun version of "Ladies Night"). Of course, those aren't names on the tip of most ...

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Kool & The Gang (2000) more music like this

Kool & the Gang's 20th Century Masters collection gathers a bare-bones assemblage of their hits, from the funky "Hollywood Swinging," "Get Down on It," and "Jungle Boogie" to their later, smoother R&B singles like "Fresh," "Cherish," and "Joanna." Though it's not an extensive compilation, the album does provide a decent sampling of the band's work ...

The fourth volume in Madacy's year-by-year overview of the biggest hits of the '70s and '80s is one of the most eclectic volumes in the series, offering an intriguing glimpse into the schizophrenia that dominated American pop radio in 1973.
