Simply horrid.......2006-02-11
The Most Comprehensive Fame Collection Available!.......2005-04-28
True "Blue Eyed Soul" and Jazz, and R&B, and POP,.............2004-11-10
Great sixties mix of pop, blues and jazz.......2004-09-27
The three UK number ones were Yeh yeh (his first hit, though not his first single), Get away (which he originally wrote for a TV commercial) and The ballad of Bonnie and Clyde, which was about the film. These are the songs that Georgie is best remembered for but some of his other pop hits are also noteworthy, among them being Sunny, Sitting in the park, Because I love you, Peaceful and Rosetta, the last-named featuring Alan Price.
As the hits dried up, Georgie returned to the jazz and blues music that he loved but as this collection shows, that music was always an important influence in his pop hits. This is as good a collection of his music from his hit-making years as you are likely to find, containing all his UK hits and several other interesting tracks.

Album Description
"Without the killer grooves and syncopated horn blasts of the always wonderful Skatalites, life on this planet would be a far duller thing." -- L.A. Daily News "The Skatalites are Jamaica's answer to the Motown house band and Booker T. & The MG's combined." -- Rolling Stone "The Skatalites took influences from jazz, calypso and US rhythm `n' blues to help create the sound that dominated Jamaican sixties music ... This is a must have album for anyone interested in Jamaican music and a great introduction for those who wish to learn." -- BBC.co.uk "More than a band, The Skatalites were and are an institution, an aggregation of top-notch musicians who didn't merely define the sound of Jamaica, they were the sound of Jamaica across the '50s and '60s." -- All Music Guide "The second wave of ska produced some good bands and some great music, the third wave fewer, but if you want to really hear the music played with respect for its deepest roots, you need to go to the source, and that is undoubtedly The Skatalites ... The band is more musically sophisticated than many of its contemporaries were and than pretty much all of its present day imitators are." -- PopMattersRecorded in Byron Bay in 2006, On the Right Track mixes the coastal island vibes of Australia's and Jamaica's hippest towns with a heavy jazz influence. Among a myriad of reissues and compilations, this album stands out as having the best new original material on an international Skatalites release since 1964. Studio sessions were held in the style of a classic jazz session, much like the "one-take" upbringing Studio 1 provided the group in the early days. From the late '50s into the '60s, The Skatalites transcended popular music, introducing and defining Jamaican music and culture to the world. Combining the best of American boogie-woogie with R&B, jazz, and big band swing, The Skatalites created the up-tempo syncopated island beat dubbed "ska," which evolved into rocksteady and reggae. The original backing band for Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, and Toots & The Maytals, these two-time Grammy nominees have toured extensively worldwide since the '80s.

Not really..........2007-07-11
And I'm not anti-Sly by any means, no matter what this two-star review may imply: Life, Stand!, There's a Riot Goin' On and Fresh are all solid records. Far better than this, too.
Sly's last really good record - almost up there with Fresh.......2002-07-01
Not so the aptly titled Back on the Right Track, which is a rare gem in his late career. While it's not quite as funky, creative or soul-stirring as Fresh-era Sly, it's a solid record full of short and simple but really tasty grooves... and for those of you who tune into Sly's higher frequencies, he feels more spiritually present on this record than he did on most of his mid-to-late 70's recordings, back in the positive groove that made us love him. The highs on this record aren't his highest, but it's consistently cool and there isn't a lame moment on the record.
My Sly favorites: Fresh and Small Talk, and immediately after those i would rank Anthology ('cause it has most of the best of Sly's earliest stuff), High On You and this disc, in no particular order. If you dig Sly at all and the sample tracks don't turn you off, you'll probably be very happy with Back on the Right Track. If you're new to Sly, then buy Fresh, Small Talk and (if you're down with 60's soul) Anthology first.
The Best Of The Later Period.......2002-05-28
To me (and many others) it seems that Sly's ego and his paranoid delusions of granduer and omnipotence got the better of him after 1970.
Part of the problem was that 'The Family Stone' had left him in '73 and any creative input and boundaries that they may have been able to put in place were overtaken by more than a modicum of self indulgence and obstinance.
This lack of focus meant that Sly spent most of his time with his head in the clouds after the number 1 single 'Thankyou Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Again'(1970).
On this album though Sly captures some of his earlier form. It is also not ruined by the 'diaphonous' master tapes that would be re-recorded over many times, for numerous and often unsavoury reasons. (think of the album There's A Riot Going On)
With members of the original band back on board and with some kind of monetary focus the awful sound quality that is present on There's A Riot has been completely eliminated.
There are certainly more than 2 good tracks here. I'd wager that ALL the tracks here are above Sly's 'own' average.
My only gripe is that many of the songs are under 3 mins and the album clocks in at less than 30 mins in it's entirity.
I think that this was a ploy by either the record company, the band, or Sly himself to try and condense the studio work into some kind of chart success. This, unfortunately was not to be and the album was a failure of sorts. Whilst it didn't perform in the charts it is certainly worth reconsidering if you are looking for something to compliment the 'Greatest Hits' packages.
Regardless, this is the only album really worth hunting out after 'Fresh', or possibly 'High On You' and as such, in many ways, marks the end of a distinguished career of a flawed genius.
What a shame though that the sound quality and coherence of the music on here is so absent from the releases that should have marked his glory days, after 1970. Sly only has himself to blame though.

Album Description
Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste, King of the Funky Drums (KOTFD), is pleased to present the release of his new CD, "I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK" -- written, produced, and published on his own label, JZM Records. "I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK" features all-star guests, including Dr. John, Ivan Neville, Bernie Worrell, Bobby Vega, Kai Eckhardt, David Torkanowsky, Chris Rossbach, Garth Webber. Zigaboo Modeliste, the "legendary New Orleans drummer," is best known for his 20 years of work with The Meters, "New Orleans' baddest funk band" (Rolling Stone). Widely acknowledged as a band way ahead of its time, the Meters perfected the funk lock that would influence a generation of rhythm bands.Ziggy released his first solo CD in 2000, "ZIGABOO.COM," reviewed as one of the most outstanding comeback recordings of the year. This 2004 CD, "I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK," reaches the people through Ziggy's master drumming, as well as genius producing and writing skills. He especially focused on a message to humanity through his song, "GUNS," to discourage senseless violence and unnecessary deaths involving guns or any other weapons of destruction. Another highlight of the CD is the tune, "WELCOME TO NEW ORLEANS"-- a second line groove with a back beat featuring Dr. John on the keyboards, inviting the whole world to get funky and live it up. This is New Orleans flava without a doubt. Ziggy's unsurpassed funk and pocket skills on the drums throughout the entire CD confirm as is quoted in "The Book of Rock Lists" -- that Modeliste is the most brilliant American funk percussionist of the Contemporary Era. The percussion maestro known as the "King of the Funky Drums" takes you to a funkified festive jubilation, the ultimate party of dance and groove.

Maximum DrunkenSoul.......2001-05-17
inexplicably home at honkytonks, chicago punk bars, and detroit soul joints, Geraldine's music has been chugging along for several years, and it keeps getting better. try listening to "B Team", Save Your Soul, or my new favorite, "Scene for the Making," and not wake up the next day dying to hear it again.
the production is necessarily lo-fi, accentuating the rawness of the music. if you think you're missing something listening to this CD, you are: you gotta git out and see this band live before Matt Harvey falls and breaks his hip. still the only band i know able to rock this consistently hard, and still work the harmonica in such a way that you're left thinking, "of course."
