FUNK COMPILATION ALBUMS

　ファンクコンピレーションアルバムは星の数あると言ってもいいでしょう。 何のポリシーもないしょ〜もないものもあれば、計算尽くされたすばらしい構成のものもあります。 私が飽きもせず買い続けているコンピアルバムをご紹介。

*STAY ON THE GROOVE 20 MODERN FUNK ANTHEMS, 2005

 1. STAY ON THE GROOVE - NEW MASTERSOUNDS
 2. WHAT IF WE ALL STOPPED PAYING - SHARON JONES & THE DAP-KINGS
 3. FUNKY ME - TROUBLED SOUL
 4. FREEDOM - NEW PROCESS
 5. BATTLE OF FUNK - JAGUAR
 6. SHOW AND PROVE - BREAKESTRA
 7. DOIN'T THE THING - LEFTIES SOUL CONNECTION
 8. GRAVEL RASH - COOKIN' ON THREE BURNERS
 9. HAM GALLERY - POETS OF RHYTHM
10. DON'T JOKE WITH A HUNGRY MAN - QUANTIC & SPANKY WILSON
11. EL PADRINO - MFOS
12. WORK IT OUT - SPEEDOMETER
13. HOLD IT DOWN - QUANTIC SOUL ORCHESTRA
14. IF I HAD A BAND - CONTEXT
15. EVERYTHING'S GONNA - RIA CURRIE & THE DEEP SOUL MESSENGERS
16. TWO NOTE BROWN - NEW MASTERSOUNDS
17. GIVE ME A CHANCE - LEE FIELDS & THE DAP-KINGS
18. NO REST FOR THE WICKED - BDM
19. FAKIN' IT - SHARON JACKSON & THE SOUL DESTROYERS
20. TIGHTEN UP - BAMBOOS

有名・無名含めて、現代のファンクのかっこいいところだけを集めた、すばらしいコンピ。視聴してしびれて、値段は高めだったが迷わず買った。
 1. STAY ON THE GROOVE - NEW MASTERSOUNDS　ごっつい声の男性による、男のためのファンク。汗がしたたり落ちるサウンドです。
 2. WHAT IF WE ALL STOPPED PAYING - SHARON JONES & THE DAP-KINGS 毎度、JBの６０年代後半の雰囲気をもろに出したサウンドが泣かせてくれます。特に２本のギターの入れ方がJBっぽいです。SHARON JONESの声も好きです。税金は払わなきゃいけません。
12. WORK IT OUT - SPEEDOMETER　これは既に持っていた。ビヨンセのヒット曲をファンク度アップしたカバーバージョンだ。
17. GIVE ME A CHANCE - LEE FIELDS & THE DAP-KINGS　これはSHARON JONESがやっているものと演奏は一緒だと思うが、歌手が違うバージョン。
19. FAKIN' IT - SHARON JACKSON & THE SOUL DESTROYERS　これも既に持っていた。
20. TIGHTEN UP - BAMBOOS　これはあの超有名曲のストレートなカバーでありがら、すごい濃縮ファンクだ。気に入った。

*CREATIVE MUSICIANS VOL.2, 2005

 1.JIMMY LYNCH - FUCKING UP
 2.FARUK GREEN - FAITH
 3.JOSEPHINE JONES & THE RAW SOUL - CANDY MAN
 4.BETTY BARNEY - MOMMA MOMMA

12.FAMILY AFFAIR - I HAD A FRIEND
13.THE MALCOUNS - SOMETHING GOING WRONG
14.JIMMY LYNCH - LET A WOMAN BE A WOMAN, LET A MAN BE A MAN
15.DAVID ROBINSON - I'M A CARPENTER
16.DARLING DEARS & FUNKY HEAVY PRODUCTION - AND I LOVE YOU
17.MADELEINE BELL - LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED
18.JOE MARCINKIEVICZ - TOMORROW'S TIME
19.FRANK HATCHETT - WHISHING ON A STAR

*COLD HEAT - HEAVY FUNK RARITIES, VOL. 1: 1968-1974, 2005

 1.THE THING/CARLEEN & THE GROOVERS
 2.FREE YOUR MIND/AMNESTY
 3.THE STRETCH (EDIT)/DETROIT SEX MACHINES
 4.LOADED TO THE GILLS (EDIT)/MICHAEL LIGGINS & THE SUPERSOULS
 5.GO FOR YOUR SELF (EDIT)/KENNY SMITH & THE LOVELITERS
 6.SLIPPING INTO DARKNESS/DAYTON SIDEWINDERS
 7.JAMES BROWN MEDLEY (I MADE A MISTAKE/LOWDOWN POPCORN EDIT)/THE APOLLO COMMANDERS
 8.COLD HEAT/LIL' LAVAIR AND THE FABULOUS JADES
 9.THE CISSYS THANG/THE SOUL SEVEN
10.COLOR (ORIGINAL 7" VERSION)/L.A. CARNIVAL
11.DON'T GO/THE ARISTOCRATS
12.DRUGS AIN'T COOL (INSTRUMENTAL)/EBONY RHYTHM BAND
13.MR. CHICKEN ---- (ALTERNATE TAKE)/THE SOUL SEVEN
14.STREET SCENE/LEON MITCHISON
15.SCORPIO/KASHMERE STAGE BAND
16.THE SAD CHICKEN/LEROY & THE DRIVERS

　
 1.THE THING/CARLEEN & THE GROOVERS　このグループは本当にカッコイイ。Can We Rap(Funky 16 Corners収録), Right On (WHAT IS WRONG WITH GROOVIN', JAZZMAN収録)もあるが、どれもお勧めである。
 6.SLIPPING INTO DARKNESS/DAYTON SIDEWINDERS　WARの有名曲のインストカバー。このバンドにはJazzmanのMidwest FunkにFunky in Hereという曲もある。
 7.JAMES BROWN MEDLEY (I MADE A MISTAKE/LOWDOWN POPCORN EDIT)/THE APOLLO COMMANDERS 　JAMES BROWN MEDLEYとはやられました。しかもI MADE A MISTAKEはMARVA WHITNEYの曲、LOWDOWN POPCORNはわりとレアなインスト曲という組み合わせ。タイトルを見ずに、聞いてすぐにJAMES BROWNのメドレーだと分かる人は少ないはず。驚き＆感動の１曲。
 9.THE CISSYS THANG/THE SOUL SEVEN　これはFunk Spectrum 2にも収録されていたが、こちらの方が断然音がよい。
13.MR. CHICKEN ---- (ALTERNATE TAKE)/THE SOUL SEVEN　これはSで始まる４文字言葉であるが、Funk Spectrum 1に収録されていたものよりはスピードが速く音も非常によい別バージョン。
15.SCORPIO/KASHMERE STAGE BAND　このバンドについてはFunky 16 CornersのコンピにKASHMEREという曲もある。

*THE RETURN OF FUNK PHENOMENA, 2003

 1.SWEET CHARLES - YES ITS YOU
 2.BENNY GOLSON - I'M ALWAYS DANCING TO THE MUSIC
 3.WENDY RENE - AFTER THE LAUGHTER COMES TEARS

11.PATTI AUSTIN - SWEET SADIE THE SAVIOUR
12.THE JACKSONS - MIRRORS OF MY MIND
13.MFSB - MYSTERIES OF THE WORLD

　なまめかしい女性がパンツ一丁で立っているセクシーイラストのジャケット。こりゃあブラックムービー関連のソウル〜ファンクが期待できるジャケットだぁ。ちょっと待てよ！こりゃ、Coffyのジャケットのパクリだ。全体がパクリである。（Roy AyersのCoffy参照)ひどいもんである。買ってから気が付いた。しかし、中身は結構いいです。知らない曲が山盛りです。

*EVERYTHING I DO GONNA BE FUNKY (BROWN SUGAR BSR 1006-2), 2004

 1.RUFUS THOMAS - FUNKY ROBOT
 2.THE DRAMATICS - WHATCHA SEE IS WHATCHA GET

14.THE POINTER SISTERS - HOW LONG (BETCHA GOT A CHICK)
15.PLEASURE - GHETTOS OF THE MIND

　2004年６月パリのヴァージンメガストアにて購入のドイツのレーベルのファンクコンピ。 日本でも入手可能なのかも知れないけど、せっかくヨーロッパに来たのだからヨーロッパらしいものをと思い、買ってみましたが、当たりでよかってです。 知らない曲の方が圧倒的に多いですから。
 7.MICHAEL LONGO - LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT　ジャズ寄りなんだけど、ホーン、ギター、オルガンが入って、すごくかっこいいファンク。どんな人なのかもよく知らないが、こういうものって絶対見逃してるんだよな。

*LATE NIGHT TALES JAMIROQUAI, 2003

  1.POINTER SISTERS - HAPPINESS
  2.COMMODORES - GIRL I THINK THE WORLD ABOUT YOU
  3.RUFUS & CHAKA KHAN - ONCE YOU GET STARTED

14.THE REAL THING - RAINING IN MY SUNSHINE
15.LALO SCHIFRIN - THEME FROM ENTER THE DRAGON
16.MARVIN GAYE - HERE MY DEAR
17.PATRICE RUSHEN - MUSIC OF THE EARTH

　やられた〜、ズルすぎる〜！！自分の元ネタバラしすぎじゃないの〜？！それにしてもかっこよく、すばらしいコンピです。 すごく勉強になります。

*IT TAKES 2 (HARMLESS HURTCD 049), 2003

 1.SUNNY - JAMES BROWN & DEE FELICE TRIO

 9.SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE - JAMES BROWN & BOBBY BYRD
10.RACETRACK IN FRANCE - GILL SCOTT HERON & BRIAN JACKSON
11.BREAK IT UP - BRIAN AUGER & JULIE DRISCOLL
12.LOVE FOR SALE - TRUDY PITTS & MR. C
13.COMING HOME BABY - PETERS & LEE

IT TAKES 2というタイトルだけあって、とにかく二人でやっている曲が入っているというのがこのコンピの特徴です。 ほとんどの曲は知りませんでしたが、いい曲満載でかなりのお気に入りです。 これがROY AYERSとGILL SCOTT HERONにはまったきっかけです。

13.PAUL TILLMAN SMITH - THIS MORNING, YOUR SORROW

　ジャケがそれっぽくレアファンクな臭いがしたので買ってみた。３つの売れなかったバンドの録音を集めたものだが、大したことはない。ファンクならば何でもいいってわけじゃない。特にELECTRIC CHURCHのボーカルはひどいので聞く気にならない。

12 MELVIN VAN PEEBLES / SWEETBACK'S THEME
13 KELLEE PATTERSON / MAGIC WAND OF LOVE

　BLACK MUSIC REVIEWのおまけのCDというか、このＣＤ目当てにこの雑誌を買ったという感じです。 世の中にあるレアなファンク音源をまとめたコンピものに十分対抗できるかっこいいネタ満載のＣＤです。
 1 ISAAC HAYES / TITLE THEME いかにもブラックシネマ風な雰囲気というか、そんなサントラにしか 使えない感じのISAAC HAYESの一曲です。この人は声が低いだけで、歌がうまいとはいえませんね。 時間が短いので、ロングバージョンを聞いてみたいですね。

９０年代に起きた一大ファンクブームにもろ便乗して、あまったファンクをまとめて大放出。WESTBOUNDというFUNKADELICとOHIO PLAYERS以外はこれといったものがないレーベルの余りもんである。未発表曲がいくつかあるが、既発の曲でもほとんど知らないのでその点はありがたい…のかな？
