Description
RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2020
With more typical Funk Rock selections come from Hanson (featuring future Bob Marley And The Wailers’ mainstay Junior Murvin on guitar) and Curtis Knight Zeus (fronted by Jimi Hendrix’s old bandmate and featuring future Motorhead guitarist Fast Eddie Clarke).
Maybe it all started – in terms of Breaks and Hip Hop culture, at least – with DJ Kool Herc, who would spin key segments from old Rock records to create the Funky Break. Ever since, fans of funky music have been crate digging to find any tunes which have that infectious shuffle, regardless of their musical heritage or background.
In some ways, ‘One Way Glass’ is the next chapter in the musical story told on previous RPM box sets, ‘Looking Back’, ‘Keep Lookin’ and ‘Night Comes Down’, which documented British artists who made music inspired by black America, aimed squarely at the clubs. Now, instead of borrowing from R&B and Soul, the Prog-era bands took a leaf from American Jazz and Funk artists.
