The Valentinos - "Lookin' For A Love" Bobby Womack - "Fly Me To The Moon" Bobby Womack - "I'm Through Trying To Prove My Love" On December 11, 1964, Bertha Franklin, the manager of the Hacienda Motel in Los Angeles, killed Sam Cooke. The official story, which remains controversial, is that Cooke broke into Franklin's office and, wearing nothing but one shoe and a sports coat, demanded to know where his female companion was. When Franklin told him that she had no idea, Cooke attacked her; in [...]
I stumbled across the mix from Pipomixes . He has a blog all about mixtapes and good music which you should check here pipomixes.com his tapes are always killer and come highly recommended from me . Anyway the concept of this one is based on the music in Quentin Tarantino's films which i can safely say is always on the money. Tarantino Breaks- Pipomixes I had to include some of my favorite tunes from various Tarantino movies that have watched way too many times over the years. Enjoy! [...]
It seems like it was only yesterday when 50 Cent was dominating damn near everything, putting a swift, premature end to many a rappers' career in his seemingly unstoppable reign on both the hood blocks and radio airwaves. These days, over a decade in the game, Fiddy no longer feels like the omnipresent beast he once was, but every once in awhile he drops something new that proves that he still has the skills to be able to take things back over if he wants to. One of these latest "something"'s is "Wait Until Tonight", [...]
HBO's best show, How To Make It In America premiered it's third episode of the second season this past Sunday. Just like we've done for the first two episodes, we will provide you with some of the best music from this one. Though a lot of awesome things happened in this most recent episode, in my [...]
The gangsta Nancy Sinatra reveals she hit the studio with Richard Russell, Damon Albarn and Bobby Womack.
Some acts might think collaboratng with Gorillaz/Blur head Damon Albarn would be worth making a big deal out of. But for up and coming songbird Lana Del Rey , the honor is reserved to a simple tweet from earlier this afteroon . In the aforementioned message, Del Rey wrote, "Love the song I've done w Richard Russell, Damon Albarn and Bobby Womack." She may be cavalier, but we're anxiously awaiting the release of that effort; as always, stay tuned. In the meantime, check out Del Rey's late-night TV debut on Later... with Jools Holland [...]
By now you know who Lana Del Rey is, and you've probably made up your opinion as to whether you love her or hate her, but this piece of news has the potential to bring around the haters (and make the lovers even more excited for more material). Lana Del Rey has dropped a minor bombshell on twitter thusly: Love the song I've done w Richard Russell, Damon Albarn and Bobby Womack. 21 minutes ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® [...]
Bobby Womack: California Dreamin' [ purchase ] Bobby Womack wrote The Rolling Stones' first UK number one, "Its All Over Now" and co-wrote his own #1 R&B hit "Woman's Gotta Have It". But in 1968, he recorded this sublime cover of The Mamas and The Papas "California Dreamin'" for his debut album Fly Me To The Moon. I heard it just a month or so before I saw the disturbing 2009 British film Fish Tank , where the main character, a spunky chick named Mia, [...]
Feel like I’m going through a bit of a musical funk at the minute. My skanking tanks are pretty much rinsed out for at least another week, which includes grimey wobbles and bass. I cannot stand any of what is going on in the mainstream charts bar maybe a couple of singer songwriters hither and tether. So I find myself lost, cold, turned on and delirious beneath a swathe of unwanted music trying to crawl or pry open my ears and force their way in. During this trying time, perhaps one what I might look back on and refer to [...]
Friday morning I woke and, like Red at the end of The Shawshank Redemption , was so excited, I could barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. Not only did I have a rare weekday off work - and one that wasn't about to be carved up by errands - but the day coincided with the opening of Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes . As a child of the '70s, I've noted the hold that the films based on Pierre Boulle's novel Planet Of The Apes had on [...]
Something of an audio diary to Albarn's trudge across the stars and stripes of yesteryear, The Fall is far from a fully-formed LP, and it's all the better for it. Aurally akin to the endlessly intriguing, scattily cobbled G Sides of 2001 and recorded exclusively on his iPad, The Fall is Albarn. Albarn is here Gorillaz . And Albarn, again in the realm of the Democrazy-era experimental, a darker realm than those stumbled through on the bedazzling Plastic Beach, is seemingly in a pressure-free environment. Initially issued as a fan club Christmas download (and dare I say it the [...]
"Finally someone let me out of my cage, now time for me is nothing cuz' I'm counting no age." Introduced to Gorillaz during my junior high school years I have enjoyed seeing their progression from their self-titled album to their latest, The Fall . What originally had me hooked to this group was its Alternative Hip-hop feel as it went through songs such as "Clint Eastwood" and "Rock the House," both of them featuring the amazing flow of Del tha Funkee Homosapien. You also had classics like "19-20003 that left you wondering what exactly was the catchy saying Noodle [...]

George Clinton ainsi que Parliament et Funkadelic , les deux formations qu'il coordonnait, ont eu une influence considérable sur le funk et la musique en général. Créateur de génie , il a réussi à conjuguer rock'n'roll , funk et psychédélisme pour donner vie au P-Funk . P-Funk , ce courant musical est défini comme du rock avec des doses de funk et/ou du funk avec des doses de rock . Mais P-Funk aussi pour cette philosophie de vie mélangeant [...]
