Psych Funk 101 
World Psychedelic Funk Classics 101 - 2 LP set in the thick gatefold jacket 

Funky fuzzy psychedelic tracks from 60s and 70s nigeria, iran, turkey, russia, south korean and other exotic countries. Rare and previously unreleased tracks restored and remastered, many from the original master tapes. Detailed liner notes with rare photos, ephemera and full annotation and band histories. 'Psych-Funk 101- a global psychedelic funk curriculum' introduces students to the global phenomenon of psychedelic funk music, and covers the golden years of the movement, from approximately 1967 until 1980. This compilation does not focus on American and British bands. rather it focuses on the bands throughout the global village that were influenced by the innovation of American and British bands - that many times one upped the heroes they sought to emulate. This compilation focuses on bands influenced by James Brown, The Meters, Sly and the Family Stone, Booker T and the MGs and the Bar Kays and unsung rhythmic forces such as drummers Bernard Purdie, Idris Muhammad, Earl Palmer, bassists such Carol Kaye and Jimmy Lewis. It focuses on bands who took that energy and combined it with the flair of psychedelic-rock musicians such as Jimi Hendrix and Cream - as well as pop-rock acts taken by the experimental side of psychedelia such as the Beatles. But these bands added their own, unique cultural flourishes. The result is mind-bending. Think about it for a second - what musical forces were greater than that of funk and psychedelic music in the late 60s and early 70s? These forces, combined by bands happy to incorporate folk music and improvisational elements from other musical forms, lead to an amazing body of work still being unearthed by researchers the world over - and still capable of inspiring new investigations into shapes of rhythm.
