Okay, this is a no-brainer: Dramatic Funk Themes Vol. 1, a compendium of British Rare Grooves from the Themes International Music Library, 1973-76, is the most exciting library compilation of a young 2008. Will it be the best of the year? Only time will tell, but I'm putting it on the short list.
Themes International Music Library was started by KPM session aces Alan Parker (guitars), Mike Moran and Alan Hawkshaw (keys) and Barry Morgan (drums) as well as KPM producer Graham Walker. Library collectors know Themes for having eye-catching album cover art, which was unusual for library records at the time.
These 20 funky power rock tracks with titles like "Flashpoint," "High Diver" and "Speed Run" are all about action or getting some. They come from albums with titles such as Dramatic Action, Breath of Danger and The Rock Machine. There is a widescreen vitality in these tracks thanks to driving rhythms, vibrant horn sections and blazing guitar work.
If you don't feel quite like you're in a movie listening to this music then you'll at least feel like you're in a very cool '70s car commercial. You're behind the wheel of a powerful V8. You're rockin' the wide lapels, open collar and knotted scarf look with outsized shades and feathered hair, but you're also packing heat in a shoulder holster and the chick in the passenger seat thinks you're god's gift. Life is good -- at least that's the vibe I'm getting from this sweet slab of library funk.
You'd better get it before it's too late!!! (Scorebaby.com)
