Search : Superbad [the Genuine Sound of Blaxploitation]
This box set's full subtitle is "The Very Best Of Blaxploitation 70's Movie Themes & Funk Soul Classics", which sounds like the compilers had to cover themselves to avoid anyone thinking it was 3 whole CDs of blaxploitation soundtrack tunes. It certainly isn't all blaxploitation - some of it is from decidedly white films and TV shows e.g. the Starsky & Hutch theme, Lalo Schifrin's Bullitt theme, and a couple of kung fu items as well. And not all of the proper soul and funk records (a large majority of the contents, mostly from the early to mid-1970s) originated from or have ever been used in film soundtracks. But most of it hangs together just fine, and most of it is also extremely fine music.

There are better Funk compilations out there, and if you're a purist you won't go near this, but if you know a couple of the tracks here and want to extend your musical boundaries a little then this could be for you.

There's the usual suspects on a Funk collection, Curtis, and Parliament, Kool and Cameo, but on the positive side, the tracks are occasionally not the obvious ones - "Flashlight" gets an airing as does "Spirit of the Boogie".

"Jungle Fever" is one I didn't expect to find in this company, it's very Funky and in the original sense of the word, and an Al Green track is always a bonus in my book.

Overall, too many tracks here are from the late 70's and being a bit of a purist myself, lean too close ... Read More:
