{"product_id":"soul-jazz-records-presents_studio-one-funk_2023_pia","title":"STUDIO ONE FUNK","description":"Soul Jazz Records' classic 'Studio One Funk' collection, re-released in 3 exclusive formats for its 18th Anniversary!\nStudio One Funk is made up of rare and unreleased Reggae Funk tracks from the Studio One vaults. From the birth of funk in America, this sound has been an ever-present ingredient in the melting pot of Studio One's musical output.\nThe music on this album is a combination of originals, US covers, and versions of existing Studio One tracks. Jackie Mittoo shows his appreciation of Booker T and The MGs, the house band of the famous Stax Records in Memphis, with ‘Hang Em High’, itself a cover of a film score by Dominic Frontiere. Incredibly, this version has never been released before. Booker T’s super funky ‘Melting Pot’ is also covered by the little-known Underground Vegetables. Other versions include Isaac Hayes’s Blaxploitation soundtrack classic ‘Shaft’ covered by Cedric Im Brooks – another unreleased gem direct from the master tape. Add to this original tracks from Studio One’s great studio musicians, including Leroy Sibbles, Jackie Mittoo, Leroy Sibbles, Eric Frater, Leroy ‘Horsemouth’ Wallace, Richard Ace, Vin Gordon and many more, and you have one of the finest selections of reggae and funk you will ever hear.","brand":"Soul Jazz Records Presents","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55304279523672,"sku":null,"price":20230224.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/5026328300979_8711b8f6-f514-4db7-b14f-6f7a0462cd14.jpg?v=1765822776","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/soul-jazz-records-presents_studio-one-funk_2023_pia","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
