Bob James - Taxie The Genie ( AUDIO CD 2006 )

<< Previous in CD > ALL Next in CD > ALL >>

Your Price: $39.99
Because of his trademark cinematic flavor that maintains itself throughout most of his music in the 70's and beyond Bob James is naturally well suited to movie/television scoring. Very much in the spirit of Grover Washington's House Full of Love: Music from the Cosby Show this album feautres ten full lengh songs used or expanded upon themes and scoring elements from the TV show Taxi. Although released in 1983 a lot of this music is likely to have come from sessions over the past several years previous to it's release. Nontheless the sound is very unified and the result sounds like a regular Bob James album release. The album,as emmaculately arranged as any of his music features a variety of moods,tempos and melodic variations and closes with a reprise of the "Angela",the theme song from the show originally released on James' 1978 release Touchdown. There are some wonderful funk grooves here as well starting with the album opener "Brooklyn Heights Boogie",a very uptown sounding varient on uptempo sophistifunk that sounds more in keeping with the era in which this album was released. The bass keyboard fired proto breakbeat grooves of "Last Chance" and "Night Moods",the latter concluding with some clever use of vocorder all evoke a similar flavor and are strong extentions of the very urban and very New York feeling to this music overall.
