This installment of Johnny "Guitar" Watson's sojourn into 1970s' style funk incorporates Funkadelic-style chants and sophisticated grooves as well as the blues and R&B master's trademark hoarse vocalizing; but, as always, his prickly, jazzy guitar soloing is the main attraction, displayed to its best advantage on burning funk tracks like "Barn Door" and "It's About the Dollar Bill."

Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty album
 $10.59 
The disco period in Johnny "Guitar" Watson's catalog was spotty at best. You gotta hand it to Watson; during this period he maintained a sense of humor with tongue firmly in cheek. The Gangster of Love refused to become a dinosaur "R&B" oldies artist, referred to only in "Whatever Happened To..." articles. That doesn't mean, however, that this material is recommended. Giant includes a few fun moments in the form of the reworked ...
| | Johnny "Guitar" Watson What The Hell Is This? CD (1979)
Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty CD music
$10.59
Given the gleefully irreverent album cover (featuring the bewildered artist in seriously bold threads, sitting on a tricycle flanked by three female gas station attendants), listeners know that they're in for a fun time before WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? even begins. This 1979 record finds Johnny "Guitar" Watson in a serious funk mode, a fact made immediately clear by the surging opening title track, on which the Texas-born Watson muses about the YWCA and ponders unemployment over a dense, Parliament-worthy backdrop. While Watson does indulge in some of ...
| | Elvis Presley On Stage: February 1970 CD (1970) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty music CDs
$7.69  
This 1999 reissue contains seven bonus tracks not on the original release.
The end of Elvis Presley's film acting career in early 1969 allowed Presley to rededicate himself to recording and live performance. By early 1970, Presley was a constant presence on the concert scene, punctuating national tours with long stays in Las Vegas show rooms. Recorded in February of 1970, ELVIS ON STAGE documents Presley's month-long stint at the International Hotel in Las Vegas. Although shorter than most of Elvis' live albums from the '70s, ELVIS ON STAGE captures the King in better voice, and singing with more enthusiasm, than do most of his other concert records.
The material performed at these concerts was made up largely of other artists' hits: Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline," Del Shannon's "Runaway," the Beatles' "Yesterday," and Ray Peterson's "The Wonder of You," the last of which was a hit single for Presley. Presley does particularly well with Tony Joe White's "Polk Salad Annie" and Joe South's ...

Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty songs
 $18.99 
On the first anniversary of the death of George Harrison--November 29, 2002--a group of his friends paid tribute to the Quiet Beatle by staging an all-star concert featuring the songs of Harrison, from his days with the Fab Five as well as his long and underrated solo career and work with the Traveling Wilburys. Also included were songs written for and about Harrison, from Ringo Starr's evocative "Photograph" to Ravi and Anoushka Shankar's inspirational "Arpan." Among the outstanding performances, held in London's Royal Albert Hall, were Eric Clapton and Jeff Lynne playing "I Want to Tell You," Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers blasting out "Taxman" and "I Need You," Paul McCartney chiming in with "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "For You Blue," and fifth Beatle Billy Preston taking on "My Sweet Lord." Clapton and McCartney's duet on "Something" is one of the many highlights. The elaborate concert, directed by David Leland and including backstage behind-the-scenes interviews with some ...
| | Gov't Mule Deja Voodoo CD (2004)
Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty album
$7.99
DEJA VOODOO serves as a comeback for Gov't Mule, who lost founding member Allen Woody in August 2000. Bandmates Warren Haynes and Matt Abts carried on with a search to fill Woody's shoes, and this led to live recordings featuring guest bassists on each cut. This studio outing welcomes the arrival of former Black Crowes bass player Andy Hess and keyboardist Danny Louis, whose entry transforms the Mule into a quartet, upping the creative potential for all involved.
Being the consummate musician that he is, Haynes guides this potent ensemble down a wide-ranging path. Wielding his ever-present slide, the in-demand guitarist pours plenty of soulful playing into the country-tinged mellowness of "Wine and Blood," switching gears to plug a wah-wah ...
| | Blues Breakers With Eric Clapton CD (1966) Gold
Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty CD music
$19.35 
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers: John Mayall (vocals, piano, organ, harmonica); Eric Clapton (vocals, guitar); John McVie (bass); Hughie Flint (drums).
Includes original release liner notes by Neil Slaven & reissue liner notes by Paul Trynka.
1966's BLUESBREAKERS WITH ERIC CLAPTON is full of portent, as some of its participants would become superstars after its release. Future Cream guitarist Eric Clapton was highly rated enough in the UK blues-rock scene to score second billing, but it wasn't until this recording that he'd had the ...

Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty CD music
$17.15
Though it's one of his least-acclaimed albums, DARING ADVENTURES is one of Richard Thompson's most powerful and consistent efforts. It finds him at the beginning of his Mitchell Froom-produced period, but Froom's keyboards and trademark style had not yet pulled Thompson fully away from his vintage Richard & Linda/SHOOT OUT THE LIGHTS ...
