Loik - Power To The People
(MP3 Podcast on www.parisdjs.com) Kraked, 2008-11-04

Info :
Today the world changes, Obama running the USA is really all about a revolution, not only because he's black but mainly by his incredible path, which you can learn about in "The Dreams Of My Father", written more than 10 years ago. Read this book and you'll realise how much the hope of a better world is no more an utopia, rather becoming a possible reality. Humility, cleverness, feeling and sensibility ruling the USA: that's really a revolution. So a little mix to celebrate what's happening with some of those who dreamed about it nearly 40 years ago. Yes we can...

Aujourd'hui le monde change, Obama à la tête des USA c'est bien d'une révolution dont il s'agit , pas seulement parce qu'il est noir mais surtout par son incroyable parcours que l'on découvre dans "Les rêves de mon père", écrit il y a plus de dix ans. Lisez ce livre et vous réaliserez à quel point l'espoir d'un monde meilleur ne semble plus une simple utopie mais bien une réalité envisageable. De l'humilité, de l'intelligence, du feeling, de la sensibilité à la tête des Etats-Unis, c'est bien une révolution. Alors un petit mix pour célébrer l'événement avec certains de ceux qui il y a bientot quarante ans en avait révé. Yes we can...

01. Paris DJs Soul Soundsystem - Introduction feat. Carlton Livingston

Famous reggae singer and Studio One veteran Carlton Livingston has been recording tracks with Grant Phabao for quite some time now.

A limited edition 12 inch from this collaboration has been released on T.I.M.E.C. last year, a storming cover of "Message To Your Rudie, also featuring the legendary jamaican deejay The Lone Ranger. The track got praise from The Unabombers, Paul Murphy, Rob Luis, Miles from The Breakestra, Erik Rug, the Fat City Record Shop and many others and we can't wait to hear what else has been cooking up between Carlton and Phabao...

During those sessions, Carlton has graced us with some singing jingles for the Paris DJs podcast, and we've included one on this short introduction, just to add a pinch of Jamaican soul spice to this "California Soul" mix...

Press Release :
"A golden state's worth of funky soul from the 60s and 70s - pulled together in a collection that's arguably even better than the first volume in the series! The tracks here are all incredibly solid - tunes that aren't just great because they're rare, but because they perfectly illustrate the hard-hitting groove going on in the California underground..."
- Dusty Groove America

"Nothing less than a treasure trove of sunshine-soaked soul."
- Urban Junkies, London

"The then-sound of a regional underground, and a soundtrack for subcultures that birthed our leaders of today."
- East Bay Express

"Super Cool California Soul 2 delves deep for its riches...These songs have aged remarkably well while still retaining their period charms."
- OC Weekly

"What makes Super Cool California Soul 2 so compelling is not the obscurity of these tracks but the organic cohesiveness that holds them together."
- Exclaim! Canada

"The subtle, unmistakable flutter in your chest and overwhelming urge to soul clap will make you feel right at home in a place you may never have been before... Grade: A-"
- Campus Circle

"Providing us with another batch of (highly) sought after underground Cali goodies...it doesn't get more soulful than this..."
- Beyondjazz

Super Cool is the second volume in our California Soul series and features music recorded between 1966 and 1982. Spanning eclectic genres from soul jazz, blues, heavy funk, modern soul, Northern soul, and disco, there's even a ballad (previously unavailable on CD) from Luv N'Haight favorite Darondo.

Despite a number of tracks being incredibly rare and highly sought-after, Super Cool was not compiled because of the rare-factor or value of the original releases alone. More importantly this is a treasure trove of music that connects the dots between artists and scenes, eras and genres, and none of the acts or tracks should not be lost to obscurity.

This is music by artists who may not be household names, but were session musicians, players, and characters who kept the scenes from San Francisco to Los Angeles and beyond alive. They were the sound of the underground and, far from being a cast of nobodies, artists included on Super Cool have played alongside Fela Kuti and George Clinton. Members of the bands featured were also integral players in acts like Funkadelic, War, and Sam Cooke's band, there's even a second cousin to Martin Luther King amidst the line-up!

Rather than concentrate on one sound or scene, the "California Soul" series is an all-encompassing overview reflecting the eclectic range of soul music to come from the state. These tracks were pulled from a couple of decades which saw the social and political status quo undergo huge change in America. The wildly inclusive racial make-up of the population meant that California was an epicenter for that change. The art and music of the times obviously reflects such influences and it was easy to fill Super Cool with super-fly love songs, righteous shouts for freedom and cosmic flower-powered funk. While wide in scope the tunes included on this compilation (and Volume 1) can obviously only represent a tiny fraction of the multitude of soulful styles, tunes and artists from California, so enjoy now and hold tight for volume 3!

Press Release :
California's rich social fabric has given the world some amazing soul music. Tower of Power, Santana, Sly and The Family Stone and Shuggie Otis - the list is endless. Our compilation includes some of the more hard-to-find moments featuring unreleased 7"s and vinyl album-only soul, Latin, jazz and funk cuts recorded as early as the mid-1960s through and into the early 1980s. This slice of California's underground musical history was assembled by the Luv N'Haight rare groove digging crew, which means that not only are the tunes preserved and made widely available but also artists were tracked down and properly paid. This is not a bootleg, this is a dedication to the soulful sounds of California.

Linda Tillery wrote and released "Freedom Time" in 1977 for her self-titled album on Olivia Records, at the time a Los Angeles-based label dedicated to giving women access to the music industry. The company, now based in Oakland and primarily dealing in the women's travel industry, was exclusively women-run. Women made the music and Olivia Records offered technical training and job opportunities to women. According to the original album liner notes all profits from record sales went to paying Olivia Records employees salaries and helping fund the building of their own studio - to be run by women, of course. Tillery is still active in the music industry, at the time of writing she was touring Europe with her band the Cultural Heritage Choir.

Sweet Stuff and The Cool Sounds both come from the Soultown record label run by Bobby Sanders, himself a producer and occasional singer with the classic California soul group The Younghearts. Sanders nearly laughed himself out of his seat when we called to license the Sweet Stuff version of Leon Haywood's "Freaky (To You)". Apparently it had been a while since anyone had mentioned the track. Unfortunately for Sanders and Sweet Stuff, this wasn't the one-hit-wonder he was hoping for. Sanders and Haywood have been friends for over 30 years, but Sanders is pretty sure that even Haywood won't remember this cover version. "He was too into his own sound!" jokes Sanders.
The Cool Sounds pull out an awesome Marvin Gaye-like soulful but apocalyptic warning song - something that Sanders sent us on a cd-r, "just in case we might be interested" - hell yeah! Sanders was only 19 when he released the Sweet Stuff 7". "I wanted to be the new Berry Gordy with Soultown and my other label Pick-A-Hit Records, " he says. "I was the youngest kid doin' this stuff." Sanders had hits with McKinley Travis "Baby Is There Something on Your Mind" and Lil' Helen who at 12 years old sang "The Richest Girl". Sanders explains that back then Record Hops were the way to promote music. Every Friday he would take music and bands into schools and the buzz he'd create allowed him to get radio play. "It was much easier to break an act back then," laments Sanders.

Courtial is the second band on this compilation, after Linda Tillery, to record at Wally Heiders San Francisco studio. Their "Don't You Think It's Time" album came out a year before Tillery's album in 1976. William Courtial lead the band, which also featured awesome bay area vocalist Errol Knowles, perhaps better known for his work on the Azteca albums or Coke Escovedo's "I Would Not Change A Thing". Both Knowles and Courtial went on to join the group Chela with Mike Clark and Paul Jackson of the Headhunters. Between the Courtial band members they amassed appearances and collaborations with acts like Esther Satterfield, Jimmy Buffett, Solar Plexus, Ivory Joe Hunter and the John Betsch Society. We need to offer our thanks to Pam Courtial, one of William Courtial's ex-wives, who turned us onto his current whereabouts and coincidentally lives right around the corner from our recently-opened offices in Newport Beach.

Ike White wins best liner notes of all the records featured here. He features a quote from Stevie Wonder and thanks to Superintendent Jerry Enomoto of the California Department of Corrections "whose help made the project possible". Despite being in jail White's "Changin' Times" album was recorded and released in 1976 on the LA International label - also home to West Coast Revival who's version of "Feelin' Alright" can be found on the band's self-titled album in 1977. Jerry Goldstein produced both Ike White and West Coast Revival, he was also the producer behind the seminal California soul-funk-rock-Latin band War. Legend has it that vocalist Eric Burdon used to crash on Goldstein's couch before hooking up with the War. Goldstein also had a hand in writing 2 huge pop hits - "Hang On Sloopy" and "I Want Candy".

"Patience" was recorded in 1976 as the lead single to an album by Rokk. The album was never finished because producer Calvin Carter became too ill. A handful of promotional copies of "Patience" were distributed but the song has otherwise never the seen light of day. Label owner Betty Chiappetta had high hopes for Rokk and looked to re-launch her Tollie label with the band's success. Unfortunately when Carter fell ill the band disappeared and the almost-completed Rokk album is still in Chiappetta's possession.
Tollie, coincidentally named after Carter's son, was set-up by parent company Vee-Jay who owned the rights to the Beatles early material. Vee-Jay had so much success with Beatles album material that radio stations were complaining about having too many Vee-Jay releases in their charts. Chiappetta set-up the sub-label as an outlet for the singles. Tollie went out of business when an impending suit with Capitol over rights to the Beatles went sour for Vee-Jay. Thanks to Los Angeles-based record hunter Mike Vague who turned us on to the song and label. Thanks to Egon (Stones Throw) for turning us on to Mike!

Roy Porter, Mike James Kirkland, and the Sons and Daughters of Lite have all made several appearances on Luv N'Haight, helping us establish ourselves as an archive label with the platters that matter. Sadly Porter is no longer with us, but the tremendous drumming skills honed in South Central LA live on in music like "Party Time" - check the breaks! Be sure to seek-out the B+ documentary "Keep In Time", which gives Porter plenty o'props and features Porter speaking in the end-sequence. Or read Porters story in his own words in "There and Back," published by Bayou Press.

Mike James Kirkland's background was in doo-wop and gospel. Moving from Yazoo City, Mississipi to Los Angeles opened up Kirkland's ears to a world of new music. He and his brother Bob started Bryan records and released Kirkland's two ultra-rare but super soulful albums "Doin' It Right" and "Hang On In There". Apparently Kirkland's records may never have been created if it wasn't for a bet. At a party Bob offered a wager that his brother could cut a record as good as any Motown offering. How this guy wasn't a huge hit originally we're not entirely sure. "Hang On In There" mixes socio-political commentary with an awesome bass-line and Kirkland's poignant vocal stylings in the indie-label equivalent to "What's Going On".

The Sons and Daughters of Lite formed in Oakland in the early 1970s and their album "Let The Sunshine In" was re-issued in full by Luv N'Haight in January 2000. The band's energetic sound earned them stage appearances with the likes of Sun Ra, Fela Kuti, Freddie Hubbard and Stanley Turrentine. The term Sons of Lite comes from the Ancient Egyptian Mystery System. The Creators or Sons of Lite were those who had experienced true spiritual consciousness.

Cool Benny and his Stone Swingers is Benny Velarde, a San Francisco musical fixture for as long as we can remember. The "Wobble-Cha" 7" single was released on Virgo records and came to our attention via Cool Chris and Vinnie Esparza down at the Groove Merchant record store - thanks fellas!

Orquesta Esencia's "Carnaval" (from the album "Fuerza Positiva") is another San Francisco Latin track - this one originally a hit in the Mission district when it came out in 1981. DJ and music aficionado Rainer Truby (Compost records) hipped it to us a few years back and since then the album has grown in reputation to become a highly collectible item - just check the breakdown and you'll hear why. Not everyone involved enjoys the tune, the original writer Dave Godines couldn't understand why we would be interested in it - he was kind enough to do the deal anyway!

Adele Sebastian's "Daydreamer" was taken from the album "Desert Fairy Princess" on Nimbus records - originally an L.A.-based jazz label that specialized in avant-garde jazz music by artists like Horace Tapscott, The Creative Arts Ensemble and Nate Morgan. Sebastian joined the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra in the 1970s as a teenager. She played in the band until her death in 1983 of kidney failure at the age of 27. According to Tapscott's liner notes she was "dedicated to the task of contributing toward the 'Ourstory' of a rising nation".

While this compilation covers a lot of territory we're aware that there is an endless amount of music out there - known or unknown. We love to dig for tunes so watch out for further volumes of California Soul and other re-issues via Luv N'Haight.

*This release includes a special guest DJ-friendly re-edit by Los Angeles-based People Under The Stairs. Many thanks to Thes One for hooking it up!
