Polish Funk - A Unique Selection Of Rare Grooves From Poland Of The 70s

A definite "unique selection" of grooves here – not just because the rare tracks are all from 70s Poland, but also because most of them have never been reissued either! The package is a wonderful introduction to the kinds of grooves we've been digging from Poland for years – that mad mix of jazz, funk, fusion, electric, and vocal elements that somehow managed to flourish wonderfully during the 70s years of Soviet control – a real musical marvel, considering the setting – and because of tight border control, very few of these tunes ever made it out to the west! The track selection differs a fair bit from the kinds of full length Polish jazz albums that have been released to date – as many of the titles here are groovier, funkier, and more electric – and in case you're wondering, there's also very little crossover with the Compost Polish jazz set from a few years back.
