Download card included. Ten years after our initial survey of Afro-Latin accented rhythm & blues from the mid-century, Jazzman proudly presents a fourth installment, packed with as many musical surprises as the first. With music plucked from an era spanning the late 1940s into the early 60s, Jukebox Mambo IV highlights yet again the unparalleled musical creativity of the post war era, and shows how the infusion of afro-latin rhythms was key to these revolutions. Lovingly and painstakingly researched and curated, the album boasts 23 tracks, many previously uncompiled, touching on jazz, blues, doo wop, calypso, rock & roll, gospel and more. Featuring individual track notes for every song along with some never seen before photographs of the artists, Jukebox Mambo Vol IV maintains the same high production values of each previous volume, and indeed the wider Jazzman catalogue.

Wie auf der legendären KENT 001 repräsentiert die Compilation wieder Soul Stomper, Rhythm & Blues-Buster, 60s Grooves und himmlische Harmonien. Die Sweethearts schmücken unser Cover mit einem kürzlich entdeckten Farbfoto aus den Archiven von Moderns Chefingenieur Bill Lazerus. Abgesehen von ihrem lebhaften 'This Couldn't Be Me' lieferten sie den Background für viele der 60er-Jahre-Aufnahmen des Stalls. Klassisch, schwarzes Vinyl!

Includes MP3 Download Card Charles Bradley wird am 5. April sein zweites Album Victim of Love veröffentlichen. Der Nachfolger seines hochgelobten Debüts No Time for Dreaming erscheint auf dem Daptone Records Sublabel Dunham Records.Der 64-jährige “Screaming Eagle of Soul” wurde von Kritikern wie Fans gleichermaßen gefeiert. No Time for Dreaming, veröffentlicht im Januar 2011, wurde zu einer der bestverkauften Independent-Platten des Jahres und platzierte sich in den Jahresbestenlisten von GQ, Esquire, SPIN, MOJO, Paste Magazine, Mother Jones und vielen mehr. Außerdem trat Bradley mit Sharon Jones & Grace Potter in The Tonight Show with Jay Leno auf, war in diversen Episoden von Last Call with Carson Daly zu sehen und performte Anfang des Jahres in der BBC-Show Later … with Jools Holland.Seit seinem Live-Durchbruch im Rahmen der SXSW 2001, der ihn auf den Titel des SXSWorld Magazins brachte, hatte Charles vor ausverkauften Häusern und auf Festivals unter anderem in ganz Nordamerika, Europe, Australien gespielt. Darunter so renommierte Festivals wie Bonnaroo, das Newport Folk Festival, Austin City Limits, Bumbershoot, Outside Lands, Montreux, Roskilde, Flow Festival, All Tomorrow's Parties, das Vienna Jazz Festival, das Calgary Folk Festival und das Winnipeg Folk Festival. Er war auf dem Cover des Pollstar und bei den Inaugural A2IM Libera Awards wurde er als “Road Warrior of the Year” geehrt. "Every brass blast and chicken scratch could have come straight off a 1968 Stax Records release, but it's Bradley's ragged, resilient powerhouse singing that makes this soul..." - Rolling Stone "While there were plenty of great debut albums in 2011, it's hard to top the one by this 63-year-old soul throwback. Turning a lifetime of troubles into this triumph, Bradley shows that you don't need to reinvent a genre to be at its forefront." - AOL Spinner "[No Time For Dreaming] might be the best thing the label's ever released, a howling, hooting affair fit for end times or just the end of the night." - GQ "Bradley's success is a result of his music, which overflows with the ingredient most crucial to soul music - soul... he sounds battered and bruised but still standing. He aches but is never angry. There's heartbreak but also hope. In a sea of acts tagged as 'throwback soul' or 'retro soul,' Bradley is neither - he's the real thing." - Washington Post "This man's sound reminds us of the best moonshine-soaked, sweat-drenched Mississippi juke joint we were lucky enough to frequent. Don't miss it." - LA Weekly "Bradley is a classic showman. He sells every syllable, dropping to his knees, outstretching his arms, shaking his hips. And that voice, both pleading and plaintive, anguished and extraordinary." - Los Angeles Times

A bag full of rare rhythm & blues, mod-jazz, soul, and mid 70s funk. Side A starts with rhythm & blues and jazz from the 1960s. The first three tracks were pulled from hopelessly obscure 7" singles. Macy & Company are responsible for the first 'aha' moment. Their version of 'Sixteen Tons' would have certainly astounded even Tennessee Ernie Ford. A truly fantastic version indeed! 'Snatchin' It Back' completes the first side with a furious big band jazz cut. Side B is all about mod-jazz. 'Undun' is just like 'Big Boy' a sure-shot for any dancefloor. Rare Groove DJs will have a lot of fun spinning these tunes in a club. Admittedly, the next one is a strange cut. 'See How You Are' was recorded on a whim when they two composers were spontaneously pulled into a studio. High time for 'aha' effect #2. Many bands have tried their hands on a cover version of the Lee Morgan jazz classic, one of them being Mr. Palumbo. Listen closely to Dianne Elliott's contribution as it is a highlight for sure despite the fact von Frau Elliott. Side C begins with 'aha' effect #3 and a fantastic cover version of Gerald Wilson's 'Viva Tirado'. 'Blue Jamaica', is the second track on Movements 11 were a vibraphone is the lead instrument. 'Bawana Jinde' is a wild, wailing blast of percussive instrumental explosion while 'The Creeper' is the perfect choice to finish this side. Side D is reserved for proper 1970s funk. The flip side of Reunion's sole 45rpm single was included on a previous Tramp compilation album. 'A Brighter Day' has not been compiled yet. 'Real Life', 'Syrene' and 'Breezy' are all prime examples how mid 70s funk has to sound . A dream for B-Boys and B-Girls. Those of you who have been enjoying the detective work of the people behind the label over the past 18 years know that the Movements series can be easily considered as the flagship compilation series on Tramp. So, after having listened to the entire selection of this brand new volume we sincerely hope that we will have achieved our aim to surprise, delight, and enlighten you once again!
