Which of these Incognito albums?

[Graham]

Payday tomorrow, and I'd like to pickup an album by Incognito, I don't know an awful lot about the band, so thought I'd ask the collective wisdom of Basschat. I don't want to spend much money at the moment and the below can be had for a pittance on Amazon, so is there one that is particularly better than the others? I have Adventures In Black Sunshine by them and prefer the upbeat funky tracks to the more mellow ones if that helps

Poitivity
100⁰ And Rising
Tribes Vibes And Scribes

Cheers

For me, the order would be:

Tribes Vibes And Scribes
100⁰ And Rising
Poitivity

How about the 30th Anniversay Live album?

Has most of the best songs on it and production is good if I remember correctly.

This is off topic but have you heard their latest ? Amplified Soul. A mixture of genres!

[leschirons]

Tribes would be the first choice for me.

[ambient]

100 degrees is probably my favourite, the 30tn anniversary album is a good but too, features lots of the musicians from over the 3 decades.

Too many to choose a single album from really.... I'd go with the 30th anniversary, I went to the o2 show and it was absolutely awesome. Another album of theirs I love is Tales from the Beach.

[Graham]

I went with the majority opinion and got Tribes, Vibes And Scribes. Picked up Return Of The Space Cowboy too and paid the princely some of £3.98 for both delivered

[TheGreek]

I've got "Jazz Funk", "Surreal" and "Always there" (greatest hits) - all different but all excellent..

Beneath the surface

[bubinga5]

i don't think there is a definitive album of those 3, or any incognito album.

I've been listening to Incognito since Jazz Funk and before with Bluey with the Warriors and Light of the World, maybe 25 years ago. still can't think of a favourite album. there all great. there are so many like Eleven, Tales from the Beach, Who Needs Love. even splinter groups like Inner Shade, Citrus Sun.. Beneath the Surface is just great though, the soul in that album is just…..


end of waffle.

[/quote]yeah its great, one of those simple funky ones.

[SpaceChick]

Having been LOVING my Tribes, Vibes and Scribes album. Although tying myself in knots trying to play Colibri

I am feeling the need for more Incognito in my collection.

So basschatters... what album next?

I prefer the funky instrumental stuff most.

Thanks

[bubinga5]

. thing is Incognito don't do just instrumental albums. there first album is closest to what you might like. 'Jazz Funk'.. but picked out a couple of great instrumentals that might fit your bill. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1LPyi0lAo8[/media]

this is EPIC.! the bass playing is out there. [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbjxS6X0A_4"]http://www.youtube....h?v=sbjxS6X0A_4[/url]

I think the funkiest album is probably 100 degrees and rising. Features Randy Hope-Taylor and my personal favourite Julian Crampton.

If you want to check out more Julian Crampton funkiness then I strongly recommend Joey Negro and the Sunburst band.

Not wanting to cost you any more money , but there's an excellent version of Jacobs Ladder on the live at the O2 album.

Careful when taking recommendations from Andrew (B5) - normally ends up costing me money when I listen to his recommendations...must say at I've bought some great music though (check out Drizabone and Lettuce)

Harmonics to slapping like that just shouldn't be allowed!!!

Gosh I watch these skills and it makes me want to cry.... 1. As it's so awesome 2. Because I'll never be anywhere near that good!!
