Bernard "Pretty" Purdie Soul Is... Pretty Purdie (RSD 2019)

Beschreibung Details

LP (180g) in gatefold jacket + obi strip. - Originally released on Flying Dutchman in 1972, first ever vinyl reissue since 1993. Bernard "Pretty" Purdie is an American drummer that needs little introduction. At an early age he began hitting cans with sticks and learned the elements of drumming techniques from overhearing lessons being given. Considered an influential and innovative soul-jazz-funk musician, he is known for his precise musical time keeping and his signature/unique drumming techniques_ considered one of the greatest drummers of his generation, in 2013 he was inducted into the `Modern Drummer' Hall of Fame. In 1961 he moved from his hometown to New York City where he was contracted to play session work for James Brown (Purdie can be heard on the albums `It's a Man's Man's Man's World', `Cold Sweat', `Say It Loud-I'm Black and I'm Proud' and `Get on the Good Foot'). These JB sessions display some of the most sophisticated and driving shuffles ever recorded for Brown's catalogue. Purdie then started working with Aretha Franklin as her musical director in 1970 and held that position for five years as well as drumming for Franklin's opening act, King Curtis. Bernie Purdie was credited on countless albums (spanning several decades) by legendary artists like Nina Simone, Herbie Hancock, Isaac Hayes, Quincy Jones, Miles Davis, John Lee Hooker, Steely Dan, Cat Stevens, B.B. King, The Rolling Stones and Gil Scott-Heron. Purdie recorded his first solo album Soul Drums as early as 1968 and other milestone solo albums include Purdie Good (1971), Soul Is ... Pretty Purdie (1972) and the soundtrack for the blaxploitation film Lialeh (1973). With such an extensive body of work (Purdie laid down the beat on over 3000 recordings) it comes as no surprise that his rhythms have appeared as samples on groundbreaking tracks from high profile acts such as The Chemical Brothers, Massive Attack, Beck, DJ Shadow, The Prodigy _and many others.

Über uns

Unser Gründungsjahr 1998 - lange nachdem Vinyl für tot erklärt und lange bevor Vinyl wieder als coole Sache abgefeiert wurde - beweist, dass wir echte Vinylnerds sind. Angefangen haben wir nur nebenbei als ein kleiner Plattendealer von zuhause aus. Später haben wir dann unseren ersten echten Plattenladen eröffnet und dann natürlich auch einen eigenen Online-Shop. Alles aus Leidenschaft und immer mit dem Motto: SAVE THE VINYL. Was es online nicht gibt, gibts in unserem Laden in Übersee, Frühlingsweg 22. Übersee? Ja. Übersee Am Chiemsee. Direkt an der Autobahn A8, zwischen München und Salzburg. Hier findet ihr auch ein feines Sortiment an Second-Hand Vinyl.
