One of their best albums
Advantages: Well arranged music Disadvantages: None
The acid jazz overtones of the Brand New Heavies make them quite unlike any other band I have the fortune to have in my collection. You might never have heard of them, but it’s likely you know a couple of songs off this album, as they’re pretty well known. The two infinitely poppie tracks – ‘Dream On Dreamer’ and ‘Midnight At The Oasis’ rose fairly high in the charts in the mid-90s, and while they are great tracks, there’s some much better tracks ... ...‘Snake Hips’) are perfect examples, as they are both excellent tracks without the need for vocals, such is the musical skill of the rest of the band. N’dea Davenport’s smooth vocals make all the difference however, and her vocal power transforms some tracks from something brilliant into something altogether more exciting. Personal favourites of mine include ‘Back To Love’, ‘Fake’, ‘Worlds Keep Spinning’ and ‘Day Break’ – the five and a half minute ...

Classic Funk
Advantages: Good all round album Disadvantages: Quite similar too previous offerings, but still good
The album "Shelter" is so funky !"The Brand New Heavies "have done really well with their mix of funky beats and laid back melodies. Such tracks as "Shelter" & "You are the Universe" are brilliant and some of the best I have heard in a long time. The album is made up of catchy tunes and time enduring lyrics which really make you get up and groove!. I have listened to this album over and over again and I never get tired of it, infact, it seems to ... ...to those who are already fans of the New Heavies but also to those who have never heard of them as this is a type of music nearly everyone will enjoy, and continue to enjoy for a long time to come! I take my hat off to them as they have really out done themselves with this musical offering. ...

Naaah! Funk Beef!
Advantages: A couple of big tunes Disadvantages: Inconsistent
Bringing what was their seventh album under this name, Funkadelic released their seventh album in 1975. The George Clinton-led Funk band (who also went under Parliament for their more Soul-based work) came with “Let’s Take It To The Stage” with a line-up that included Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell , Fuzzy Haskins and most of the other regulars. 1. “Good To Your Earhole” They get the album underway with something expectedly strong as you find that ... ...and knew exactly what they were capable of as an act and so they lead the way nicely with some lively Funk material that makes the most of all aspects of the band and their unity that makes for such impressive work (that was seen to lead the way for all others working in this genre at the time). **Five Stars** 2. “Better By The Pound” With this one you see that you get Boogie Mosson laying down a hard groove on the bass to take them in and take them ...

Jill, You Know Jill
Advantages: Bangers throughout Disadvantages: Nothing specific
...makes it appeal to those who won’t really get themselves into anything with such a twist to it. **Five Stars** 15. “Watching Me” Sampling a little something from the Acid-Jazz pioneer Roy Ayers, you see that you get a straight killer tune here as with this one you see that she is backed up by some raw Hip Hop beats with some light synth grooves giving it melody before she gets back to the spoken word (which later develops into raps) to mix things ... ...can’t contain her music and will go off in whatever direction it takes her. **Five Stars** 16. “Brotha” Sampling some classic Jazz in a simple piano loop (borrowed from Allen Toussaint) and I felt that it was a perfect way to set things up as she shows just how well her material seems to fit in with more traditional music (even though Neo-Soul is so progressive in its ways). It is another that shows her working at an optimal level, up to a standard ...

Advantages: A few bangers Disadvantages: Inconsistent
In 2001 the duo of Goldie Loc, Tray Deee and Snoop Dogg released their second album as The Eastsidaz. The Long Beach, California trio came to bring what would become their final album together, due in part to the fact that Snoop Dogg wished to move on to other projects and Tray Deee was sent to prison for 12 years soon after and so “Duces ‘n Trayz: The Old Fashioned Way” would mark the end of a time when a distinctive West Coast sound would have ... ...2. “I Luv It” They get things lively with a DJ Battlecat-produced two-stepper that gives it a distinctive late nineties-to-early ‘00s West coast sound that takes heavily from the sounds of G-Funk from earlier on during the former decade but has things updated to hit in with the new developments in what they are capable of delivering by this point. Kokane of Above The Law comes to assist on this one too for a banger of a jam, in addition to Snoop ...
