5.0 out of 5 stars funky!!!!, 9 Nov 2001
By A Customer
soul jazz have done it again with another fine compilation of new orleans classics. Like the first volume there is a healthy blend of known and easily accessable tracks to some that collectors will sell their own mothers for!
Filled with classic breaks on tracks such as we're doing it- eddie bo and give it up- lee dorsey (with the meters as the backing band!)Saturday night fish fry is a true must for any self respecting soul/funk fan- a well deserved 5 stars

5.0 out of 5 stars More genius from the godparents of funk., 3 Aug 2001
By A Customer
Funk is a passion of mine, and to find a cd containing such a range of the finest funk-stars is a god send. Soul jazz records have kept their unbeatable quality and style in this sequel cd. It is filled with raw, infectious and downright dirty New Orleans grooves (that wouldn't be out of place in a Tarantino movie) to keep you amused for the duration. New Orleans finest are all present The Meters, Dr John, Lee Dorsey and more. I find these compilations on the Soul Jazz records a refreshing change. They range from Reggae to New York latino to Philadelphia roots to of course New Orleans Jazz funk. So do it baby and in the words of the great Lee Dorsey "help the brother get funked".

5.0 out of 5 stars Appraisal of album - positive, 12 Feb 2002
If they had a taste for the grandiose , the compilers at Souljazz records could have titled their latest retrospective 'The Secret History of Funk'. Such is the persuasive argument put forth, asserted in every bass and horn line, and underlined by every insistent drum pattern in this compilation of the rich musical soup of 60's New Orleans.

Take Inell Young's fine teen ballad'The Next Ball Game' that sounds like somebody let the Godfather's own Funky Drummer, Clyde Stubblefield double-time the beat. Of course, New Orleans had its own grand collection of players from the legendary Smokey Johnson to 'Zigaboo' Modeliste of Al Neville's Meters.

Often ignored in comparison to the session man splendour of the Tamla / Muscle Shoals / Booker T axis of 60's black American music , '..Fish Fry' showcases artists the cream of the Louisina talent. R & B legend Lee Dorsey, who did his best work with the assistance of aforesaid Meters, backed up by legendary producer Allen Toussaint. Betty Harris and Irma Thomas who help fill the gap that lies between blues shouters of the 50's and the diva's of the sixties. And Rare Groove supremo Eddie Bo, who's 'The Thang' is revealed here in all its skip-beat glory

Such is the diversity on offer here that there are echoes of many styles and derivations. The effects pedal munificence of the Magnolias 'Soul, Soul, Soul' is just one signpost to what would become well -sampled pathways, as much as Huey Piano Smith's 'Little Liza Jane' is a nod to the rockin' blues of the past.

Souljazz round off this quality package with informative notes and rare photos topped off with a great mug shot of Eddie Bo looking a ringer for Shane McGowan in an Afro. Maybe they could have called it 'The Secret History of Celtic Punk Sea-Shanty Soul' instead. Then again...

I've invested in quite a few funk collections over the past couple of years and the one problem I encounter is the consistency of the tracks on albums. Read more
