ERYKAH BADU - Mama's Gun (2000)

 

A friend of mine suggested we go to a concert in Milan next November. Honestly, I wasn't very familiar with Erykah Badu's name, so I did some research online.

That's how I discovered Erykah's LP "Mama's Gun" (it will be the subject of Erykah's tour). It was a nice surprise for me. I'm a fan of acid jazz and trip hop, and here you can find a good interpretation of this musical genre, combined with a truly special voice that makes this work a masterpiece.

So I'm looking forward to attending one of the 2 concerts scheduled in Italy for next November!!!

THE METERS - Rejuvenation (1974)

Here we are again in the '70s with a funky-soul album by THE METERS. I think there's a renewed interest in this genre these days (or is it just my feeling?); anyway, I'll post it if anyone's interested. I found it online some time ago and just listened to this CD a few days ago. The Meters formed in 1966 in New Orleans and were active until 1977, according to Wikipedia.
