Funkified Jazz On Loan

Charlie Hunter Quintet - Right Now Move
John Scofield - A Go Go
These two discs were lent to me by my friend George who has hooked into my growing interest in funkified jazz, a la Medeski, Martin, & Wood. In fact, in his cd, John Scofield is backed by MMW.
Medeski, Martin, & Wood - Notes from the Underground
This is a re-release of MMW's first CD and shows the young band searching to find their voice and filled flashes of the brilliance that was to come.
Various Artists - City of God: Remixed Music from the Motion Picture
Remixed with an ear for the dance hall, this cd is just as much fun as the original.
Placebo - Sleeping with Ghosts
I've always been mesmerized by Placebo's combination of driving rock, catchy melodies, and Brian Molko's haunting and sinister lyrics.
Beulah - The Coast is Never Clear
For something a lot less sinister, try Beulah. This album is not as polished as last year's Yoko release, but still plenty good.
