Episode 73: Jazz Funk 1978, Part 11

I had so much fun last week in 1978 I decided to hang around a while and bring you another one of my “origin episodes” tracing the mythology of how an ordinary American nerd was transformed into the Jazz Evangelist. Pretty riveting stuff.

However, this episode is rather light on the “jazz” aspect of the continuum – and very heavy on the funk. Those that believe all dance music from 1978 was just “disco” may be surprised to find how funky and complex a lot of it was . . . and that the best of it was still very much connected to it’s jazz foundations.

I must warn you however that I did encounter a vortex in the time/space continuum whilst producing this show, and was thus confronted by my former self. Therefore, much of this episode was highjacked by my original DJ persona who went by the name of “Johnny Kool”. Yeah . . . it was a dark & pathetic period. However, he reminded me of quite a few great tracks that I hadn’t thought about in 30 years or more – songs that he/we used to play nightly.

So join me in the funky vortex for the cool, soulful, jazzy funk of groups such as Heatwave
Earth, Wind & Fire, Roy Ayers, The Jacksons, Lenny White (feat. Chaka Khan), Ashford & Simpson, Stanley Clarke, L.T.D., Rick James, Bootsy Collins, Bell & James, Idris Muhammad, Gene Chandler, Raydio, The Pockets, Pleasure, Donald Byrd, Aquarian Dream, Isley Brothers, Tower Of Power, Average White Band, Bar-Kays & Mother’s Finest.

In the immortal words of Don Cornelius, hop aboard for the hippest trip in America . . . and you can bet your last money, it’s gonna be a stone gas, honey. This one is dedicated to you Don. Thanks for being the first to point me down the right musical track.

If you have any comments, questions, suggestions or just want to have a random discussion about hedgehogs – please write to Scott@SoulandJazz.com. I would also love to connect with you via Facebook & Twitter . . . just look for the Jazz Evangelist.

Agape ya’ll,

Episode 72: Jazz Funk 1978, Part 10

Welcome to another edition of Continuum – A Journey Through Jazz . . . and the 10th in a series dedicated to my own “origin story” – the music that got the Jazz Evangelist interested in jazz in the first place. This leg of the journey takes us into the realms of 1978. A dark year of disco for some . . . but a glorious year of jazz funk grooves for me.

It wasn’t just one artist, group or style that turned me on to jazz – but a collection of grooves that allowed me to sink my soul into the music. That’s why I’m presenting this series, in the hopes that some of these songs may lead others down the same glorious path. The ten episodes in this series include most of the music that allowed me to find my own entryway into the Jazz Continuum – making jazz accessible & exciting when I had no idea what it was.

The initial journey lasted from 1975 to around 1982 . . . when I narrowed my taste and became a straight ahead jazz snob for a decade – but the initial phases brought me in touch with a lot of great music which I now embrace wholeheartedly . . . even if some may consider it beneath the dignity of whatever they define as “jazz”.

To that end I present 23 grooves of the jazz funk variety from 1978 including blast from the past by Weather Report, Lenny White, Dexter Wansel, Chick Corea, Jeff Lorber Fusion, George Duke, Raul De Souza, Willie Bobo, Banda Black Rio, Aquarian Dream, Pleasure, Eddie Russ, Brothers Johnson, Herbie Hancock, Sea Level, Wilton Felder, Quincy Jones, Average White Band, Rhythm Heritage, Ronnie Laws, Grover Washington Jr., Montana & The Crusaders.

If you have any particular favorites from the Jazz Continuum circa 1978 please let me know by writing to Scott@SoulandJazz.com. I would also love to connect with you via Facebook & Twitter . . . just look for the Jazz Evangelist.

Agape ya’ll,
J. Scott Fugate, ‘The Jazz Evangelist’

Episode 10 – Sirens of Swing: Billie Holiday

Welcome back to another edition of my monthly (and sometimes quarterly) show entitled “Swing!” This episode showcases one of the original sirens of swing, who many proclaim to be the first jazz singer . . . Billy Holiday – aka Lady Day.

We’re a bit overstimulated & jaded in this day and age to hear true innovation – because it seems we’ve heard it all before . . . but when Billie started to swing, no one had ever really heard a woman sing like that before. She improvised like an instrumentalist, created unique phrasings, and set a new standard. This episode covers some of the highlights of her early career from 1933 to 1941 . . . 19 tracks that she sang between the ages of 18 and 26.

Billie Holiday set the stage for many singer who came after her. Jazz, pop, rock & soul singers from Eryka Badu to Jill Scott and Amy Winehouse to Adele continue to incorporate her vocal techniques and style 53 years after her death – although these artist are often touted by critics for their unique and individual sound. Everything old is new again . . . yet we forget the originators, and give credit to those that revive what came before them and call it by new names – such as neo-soul . . . or BAM – but’s it’s all part of a continuum that swings like a pendulum.
