DON BLACKMAN s/t RSD / LP NEW VINYL / Expansion 2017
2017 Record Store Day release - First 180g vinyl issue of this soul/funk/jazz classic from 1982. The album was a sensation on the rare groove scene which lead to a yearly JAZZ CAFE showcase up until his death in 2016. His keyboards were used by MARY J BLIGE & JANET JACKSON + sampled by SNOOP DOGG. Essential.
A jazz funk masterpiece, and THE record by the legendary Don Blackman – the only one issued under his own name for many many years, and a famous little set that's been sampled endlessly over the years, and for good reason! The vibe here is one that's barely been matched again – a blend of 70s fusion, bassy funk, and even tighter riffing – all put together with a greater depth and sense of soul than most other records of its type. Blackman's a GRP contemporary of Bernard Wright, Tom Browne, and Weldon Irvine – and there's bits of all their sound in the work here, but somehow Don does it even better – hitting these grooves, notes, and lines that seem to fall from the heavens – and which still stand as some of the hippest music of his generation. A record to file proudly next to your copies of Ramp and James Mason – and like those gems, the kind of record that only happens once in an artists career!
