Review
by Steve Leggett
This
two-disc set from London's Soul Brother Records does a great job of
consolidating Hammond B-3 player Charles Earland's early and late
stylistic phases, picking key tracks from his Prestige and Muse
soul-jazz period for the first disc and tracks from his later jazz-funk
era with Mercury and Columbia for the second disc. Since fans of one
style might not be fans of the other, it's nice having them separated
like this, and everything you really need for an introduction to
Earland's full career is here, from his first big side, "Black Talk,"
through his intergalactic "Betty Boop" phase, while the common
denominator between the two discs is Earland's relentless pursuit of the
groove.

Reseña
por Steve Leggett
Este
conjunto de dos discos de Soul Brother Records de Londres hace un gran
trabajo de consolidación de Hammond B-3 de Charles Earland principios y
finales de las fases estilísticas, la selección de pistas clave de su
Prestige y Muse soul-jazz período para el primer disco y pistas de su
última época de jazz-funk con Mercury y Columbia para el segundo disco.
Dado que los fans de un estilo pueden no serlo del otro, es agradable
tenerlos separados de esta manera, y todo lo que realmente se necesita
para una introducción a la carrera completa de Earland está aquí, desde
su primera gran cara, "Black Talk", hasta su intergaláctica fase "Betty
Boop", mientras que el denominador común entre los dos discos es la
incesante búsqueda del groove por parte de Earland.
