Reason Writers Around Town

August 5, 2009

The music magazine No Depression no longer appears on newsstands but it still maintains a lively website. It has now put its print archives online, including all the pieces that Reason's Jesse Walker contributed to its pages. Walker's ND articles include reviews of a Kinks reissue, a Pogues reissue, a Doris Duke reissue, a regional funk anthology, and a Billy Joe Shaver concert, plus an essay defending Bob Dylan's Christian albums.

"regional funk anthology"

Southern funk is great

I imagine that it didn't make it over that side of the pond but another great one is this

New Orleans Funk
The Original Sound of Funk 1960-75

on the UK label soul jazz

www.souljazzrecords.co.uk/releases/?id=181


lovely stuff
Allen Toussaint, The meters, Dr John

Lily Allen and Public Enemy have both lifted great samples from tracks on the collection
