Number three in a series from Soul Jazz Records that also included the fantastic 100% and 200%, 300% Dynamite! continues the exploration into the heart of Jamaican music. Compiled by the Soul Jazz Sound System, the set seamlessly blends musical eras across its 15 tracks. Therefore, Wayne Smith's vibrant, electronic-based hit "Under Me Sleng Teng" from 1985 is found sandwiched between the roots music of Shark Wilson & the Basement Heaters' "Make It Reggae" and Toots & the Maytals' "Broadway Jungle." The former weds a rugged reggae scratch to hard soul; the latter lays down an equally formidable groove and a series of junglistic animal imitations. Also included are Jamaican music kings Lee "Scratch" Perry, Johnny Clarke, Jackie Mittoo, and Augustus Pablo. For its diversity of production techniques, not to mention the sure gusto of its attack, 300% is a window into a unique musical history. Drawing on American soul ("Make It Reggae," Al Brown's "Here I Am"), pop culture/mythology (Randy's Allstars' version of the Mission: Impossible theme, Prince Buster's hilarious "Cincinatti Kid"), and Jamaica's own rocksteady and urban slang, the music emits a unique combination of playfulness, cool, naiveté, toughness, and fire. Given the obscurity of some of the material here, more extensive liner notes would be helpful (track information is nonexistent). Still, being forced to focus exclusively on the wonders of the music at hand is hardly a bad thing. In an age when reissues are continually uncovering every last obscurity, Soul Jazz has managed to point the way to further, under-explored terrain. (All music)

THE GREAT GOSPEL WOMEN Vol. 1 @320
Leading gospel researcher Anthony Heilbut continues his splendid series of gospel reissues for Shanachie and its sister label, Spirit Feel, with this collection of 31 performances by 16 of gospel's greatest female vocalists, including some of America's finest singers in any genre. It begins with five of Mahalia Jackson's early recordings for Apollo, before she was tamed by Columbia, and continues with such legends as Willie Mae Ford Smith, Roberta Martin, Rosetta Tharpe, Clara Ward, Marion Williams, and Dorothy Love Coates as well as lesser known names.

GREAT GOSPEL WOMEN Vol. 2 @320
The Great Gospel Women Vol. 2 is a worthy follow-up to the first edition of the series; wisely refusing to mess with a good thing, producer Anthony Heilbut holds over most of the same artists from before, dipping into the well for more classic material from soloists including Mahalia Jackson, Marion Williams, Clara Ward and Sister Rosetta Tharpe. While the overall quality is somewhat diluted this time out, in its favor the disc offers two more tracks than its predecessor, as well as choice cuts from performers making their series debut, among them Bessie Griffin, Ernestine B. Washington, Edna Gallmon Cooke, Imogene Green and Myrtle Scott. An excellent companion piece. (Allmusic)

GERRY HUNDT - Gerry Hundt's Legendary One-Man-Band '15 @320
From low down Joe Hill Louis style boogies to delicate Elizabeth Cotton style fingerpicking, this set of one man band performances captures the versatility & skill of Gerry Hundt. Former sideman with NICK MOSS & THE FLIPTOPS and EASY BILL & THE BIG BEAT, Hundt is a multi instrumentalist who has mastered the solo style quite well. His take on the classics (tracks 3-6-7-9-14-15) shows an intuitive understanding of the thrust of the song while bringing his own style to the fore. His own songs reflect a thorough understanding of the genere without relying on cliche ridden verses. This is a well played and different release from a truely creative soul..........
