This compilation presents a collection of easy listening, jazz and soundtracks profile typically "loungeish", from the living room, offering a wide selection of intriguing developments for sophisticated lovers of this genre. Subtitled "Family Affair Chapter One" this disc ranges from psychedelic songs intrinsi of every subtle sound effect "trippy" and traces style Latin jazz with a hint. Arena psychedelic best moments are "Pygar's Persecution / The Black Queen's Beads", a rare cut of Bob Crewe from the soundtrack of the movie "Barbarella", which contrasts a casual listening to horn arrangements against some wild guitar solos and distorted "En Melody", an instrumental Serge Gainsbourg built on a duel of guitar strings by cutting electricity and some notes of sinuous funky background. In the easy listening the first choices are "Lament", an airy Nelson Riddle between layers of strings and horns airy light on a sweet Latin rhythms and easy-jazz version of George Shearing's "Aquarius" recreating the melody of the song through a jazz piano and vibraphone against a thick frame drumming in Brazilian style. Unfortunately the two extremes do not blend together ever and this makes for some sudden changes of tone, "Family Affair Chapter One" a challenging listening experience. Undoubtedly some minor cuts could have been excluded (the most annoying and 'bizarre version of Luis Enriquez of "Mas Que Nada", a coming and going of direct rendering of the song and moments of delirious interpretation), however, despite this "inconvenience", the Most of the tracks on this disc are delightful and most difficult to find. In conclusion "Family Affair Chapter One 'and' a difficult choice for the living room novice but certainly offers songs of sufficient rarity to please the most demanding veterans. |
