Hikky-Burr ~ Quincy Jones/Bill Cosby   Album Notes and Credits Notes & Personnel Info The remix collection that complements Original Jam Sessions 1969 has a handful of stunners, with the rest of the tracks being groovy enough, if only because of Bill Cosby and Quincy Jones' original recordings. Herbert mucks everything up on his track, making Quincy's band sound both death metal and amusement-park carousel. Cornershop relate the wacka-wacka guitar to the sitar in their mix, while Bedrock and Said Mrad both take the deep and creeping noir route with great results. Mix Master Mike and Cosby's rap on "Hikky-Burr" sound like a match made in funk heaven, but the turntable master doesn't do much more than scratch over the original track. Everything else is more pleasing than memorable, with few of the remixers willing to really mess with master Quincy's groove. One has to wonder if Concord would've been better off calling on more hip-hop talent. Maybe they would've gone deeper into the funk, but these light-touch and bright remixes make for an enjoyable afternoon poolside if Thievery Corporation and their ilk are your thing. ~ David Jeffries   Compilation Appearances Handel's Messiah-Soulful Celeb Journey To The Next Austin Powers-International Man of Mystery Complete Johnny Mercer Songboo Best Latin Party Album In The Austin Powers-Spy Who Shagged Me 20th Century Masters:millennium Colle Jukebox Hits Of The 80's Definitive Strawberry Letter 23-Very Best Of The Kill Bill: Volume 1 (Explicit Version) New Mixes Vol. 1: quincy Jones: b Chronic Les: great Breaks From The Ch Count Basie & Friends Body & Soul: Platinum Boyz In The Hood Exotic Beatles Vol 3 Mastercuts Jazz Cafe Rhythms Del Mundo: Cuba Girls From Ipanema We All Love Ennio Morricone Jazz Number 1's 90's Soul Number 1's Very Best Of Al B Sure Mastercuts Legends:quincy Jones Herbi Best Of Brandy Number 1'S Unlimited   Technical Info Release Date : 07/13/2004 Original Release Date : 2004 Catalog ID : 2262 Label : Concord Jazz Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00013431226222    Related Videos Christmas In The Heart : ...
