Natural break at Sounds of the 70s : a deep breath of naturally funky tracks from the 70s

Hi folks. Here is another set of dusty tracks from the golden era, and a reminder about

the total urge to become responsible and respectful concerning mother nature.

LET'S GIVE NATURE A BREAK

=> Ban products that directly or indirectly produce excessive or useless waste, especially PLASTIC, the worst of all packaging material

=> Recycle as much as you can

=> Be judgmental about people who don´t recycle or live by rules respectful of nature. Yes indeed, social pressure works on humans!

Then if you share these values, I wish you a good break too, and this comp might help:

1 - Paul Kuhn - Sunny

2 - Killin' time - Natural Essence

3 - Lavern Baker & Jimmy Ricks - You're The Boss

4 - Original Cast Recording - A New Generation

I think it is clear to everyone that 2009 will be a tough year. A great part of the 70s music was made in an economically depressed time after the october 1973 crisis. Well: music doesn't need big bucks to flourish we all know that (except the majors of course...)

Here is a good crisis pain killer, the usual good stuff delivered here at soundsofthe70s, rare and soulful, @320kbps.

This 1998 compilation is made in France by a small Djs label called SuperClasse, not remastered but well recorded. Tracks range from Bossa to Samba funk, all we love.

THINK GREEN, NOW

stop buying products

• that directly pollute (SUVs, McDonalds and the junk food industry, canned drinks etc..)
  

• that need remote shipping (=additional pollution + unemployment at home)
  

• that are over-wrapped with tones of plastic, cardboard etc..
  

• that are disposable for no good reason (do you need to go to f... ing Starbucks Coffee that invented un-ecological coffee?!..)
  

• that cannot be recycled (but that's not enough as recycling generates pollution too)

• that are made and sold by companies that show little concern with ecology (so many I know..)

=> big corporations will change their approach of doing business only when their sales will start to decline because people avoid their non-ecological products and ethics

Things haven't changed since the first 70's ecological leaders opened their mouth, it's urging that we citizens take full responsability

Did you know that Brazilian 70's sound is very popular in France (among funky people of course)? This is largely due to a bar in Paris, the "Favela Chic", that started to play funky 70's brazilian sound in the mid90's.
They started in a small bar and then moved to a bigger place where they mixed a good selection of music, mostly brazilian but not only. Their merit : to introduce these sounds in a large scale to the public ears, not only in Paris but worlwide when they lauched their "Favela Chic postnove" compilations. All volumes are good (4 in total). The team is also involved in (good?) production, notably with Seu Jorge.
Since it has become successfull, the bar has completely lost the initial feeling and concept, is overpriced (not really favela prices..)... and very badly run! Success spoils it all...

Sabe que o som do setenta e bem apreciado em Francia (entro os funky people claro)? Isso e devido em parte a contribuçao do bar "Favela Chic" em Paris onde se tocava brazilian funky 70's ja desde o meio do 90's.
O merito deles : difundir este som ao vivo para o publico Frances, mas tambem no mundo com a serie de compilaçoes "Favela Chic postnove". Todos os discos som bom (4 no total). O time esta envolvido tambem em producçao musical, entre outros com Seu Jorge.
Desde que começou a ser conhecido, o bar perdiou totalmente o espiritu inicial, acrescentou muito os preços e nao vale mas a pena !
