Led by artists like James Brown and Curtis Mayfield, an unbridled optimism shined through the music of black Americans. \u003ci\u003eHip City\u003c\/i\u003e contains 14 tracks that form a snapshot of this exciting musical period, pinpointing some of the exact records that helped make words like \"soul\" and \"funky\" the exquisite territory of black performers. Syl Johnson's shrugs off the chains of authority and makes a claim for black independence on \"Right On\". James Brown gets up and struts his inimitable funky stuff on \"Mashed Potato Popcorn\". Andre Williams adopts some slower Blues phrasing to tell the tale of \"Cadillac Jack\" while S.O.U.L. tell their story to a wildly funky soundtrack and Alvin Cash shows us how to \"float like a butterfly and sting like a bee\" on \"Ali Shuffle\". From start to finish, \u003ci\u003eHip City\u003c\/i\u003e is stuffed with powerful funk gems that ooze quality. --\u003ci\u003ePaul Sullivan\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 5014797020245\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48000146440451,"sku":"ZO-EVOF-OTDN","price":37.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/files\/61NppBEZYVL.jpg?v=1777048600","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/products\/hip-city-tales-from-the-funky-side-of-town","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
