Some find it pleasant dining on pheasant Those things roll off my knife Just serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes Give me the simple life

A cottage small is all I'm after Not one that's spacious and wide A home that's full of joy and laughter And the ones you love inside

Some like the high road, I'll take the low road Free from the grief and strife Sounds corny and seedy, but, yes, indeedy Give me the simple life

I greet the dawn when I awaken The sky is clear up above I like my scrambled eggs and bacon Served by someone that I love

Today’s compilation:

BBE Sampler Volume Two 1999 Funk / Disco / Jazz / Deep House / Future Jazz

Oh, fuck yes, dude! I've been in a bit of a rut with the dope finds during this holiday hangover week, but this compilation from the BBE label has got me reinvigorated, so let's go!

BBE really is just one of the greatest labels to ever do it, folks. The London-based outfit has always kept it eclectic since its mid-90s inception, reaching across every continent besides Antarctica to deliver all kinds of music that's tangentially rooted in either jazz, soul, funk, or R&B. And there have been countless genres that have manifested themselves over the years from those genres too, from neo-soul, to future jazz, to broken beat, to disco, to hip hop, to downtempo, to house, to drum n bass, to breakbeat, to trip hop, to electro, and more. BBE releases all of it. They are one of the premier labels for crate diggers, founded by a pair of crate diggers themselves.

And those crate diggers, Ben Jolly and Peter Adarkwah, are the guys who compiled this album and they also appear on its cover. And what they show with this release is that BBE's status as an elite label is two-pronged: one, they are excellent at presenting crate-dug gold from the 60s through 80s, and two, they're one hell of a contemporary label that releases its own stuff as well.

And they prove it with this set of fourteen tracks. The first nine out of ten range from relatively obscure to flat-out obscure, featuring a soulful funk deep cut from former Impressions lead singer Leroy Hutson and a handful of gems from fleeting acts you've likely never heard of, like Sandi and Matues, who deliver some incredible funk, and Clyde Alexander, whose terrific piece of early 80s disco, "Gotta Get Your Love," appears to be the only song that he's ever released.

Then, with the final four tracks, BBE struts its own contemporaneous stuff with a breakbeat-y future jazz trip that features a piano and trumpet solo from the great Amalgamation of Soundz and a couple phenomenal deep house offerings from Aydin the Funki Chile (aka ATFC) and Albert Cabrera, the latter of which includes some sweet, extended electric guitar soloing 🤘.

Not many labels out there that can both effectively do their own crate-digging thing and also make their own fantastic contemporary music, but BBE's one of them, and that's why they're so good. They simultaneously show deep appreciation for the old and they also keep an underground spirit in heralding in the new 😎.

Got volume one of this short series in my queue too, so stay tuned for that post coming soon.

And check out this other BBE post I made last year also.

Highlights:

Lorez Alexandria - "Send in the Clowns" The Sunburst Band - "Monte Carlo" Getto Kitty - "Stand Up and Be Counted" Leroy Hutson - "Lucky Fellow" Basement Khemists - "Everybody" The Delegates - "Pygmy Part 1" Sandi and Matues - "The World" Clyde Alexander - "Gotta Get Your Love" Record Player - "Free Your Mind" The Amalgamation of Soundz - "Things Amiss" Family of Eve - "I Wanna Be Loved by You" Aydin the Funki Chile - "This" Albert Cabrera - "Majestika (Main Mix)"
