Description

[Machine Translation] It is too unique and exciting to be summed up in one word: crossover. Hubert Eaves III, a keyboardist who played with Gary Bartz, Norman Connors, Carlos Garnett, and others in the 1970s, expanded his activities in the 1980s and beyond, and as a producer was responsible for hits by D. Train and others. He was also a keyboardist who played with Carlos Garnett and Connors, and in the 1980s and later became a producer of hit records such as D Train. This is his first album recorded in 1976. The music, with its sharp blackness and exquisite sense of the times, is too unique and stimulating to be summed up in the single word "crossover. The tight groove of "Call To Awareness," the stormy and hypnotic "Slow Down," the genre-bending "Flead Dancing," and the mellow "Song For Marlene" show that the "new music" of 1976 still retains its intensity and continues to be "new music. I am amazed that the "new music" of 1976 still retains its strength and continues to be "new music". The participation of up-and-coming musicians such as Rene McLean, Reggie Lucas, and M. Toomey is also noteworthy. text by Yusuke Ogawa ( UNIVERSOUNDS / DEEP JAZZ REALITY ).

Description in Japanese

エソテリック・ファンク / ヒューバート・イーヴス

クロスオーヴァーのひとことで括ってしまうにはあまりにも個性的で刺激的。鋭いファンクネスと滴るメロウネスに彩られた極彩色のグルーヴに酔う。1970年代にはゲイリー・バーツ、ノーマン・コナーズ、カルロス・ガーネットらと共演を重ねた鍵盤奏者、ヒューバート・イーヴス III。1980年代以降は活躍の場を広げ、プロデューサーとしてD・トレインなどのヒットの立役者となった。本作は1976年録音のファースト・アルバム。シャープなブラックネスと絶妙の時代感覚が生み出す音楽は、クロスオーヴァーのひとことで括ってしまうにはあまりにも個性的で刺激的。タイトなグルーヴがリードする「Call To Awareness」、ストーミーでヒプノティックな「Slow Down」、ジャンルの枠を軽々と越えた「Flead Dancing」、メロウな「Song For Marlene」。1976年の<新しい音楽>が、いまなおその強度を保ち<新しい音楽>であり続けることに驚く。ルネ・マクリーン、レジー・ルーカス、エムトゥーメイら気鋭のミュージシャンの参加にも注目したい。text by 尾川雄介 (UNIVERSOUNDS / DEEP JAZZ REALITY)。
