Funky! by Scott Frisch (January 12, 2005)
Vladimir Cosma is not necessarily a composer you'd associate with funk, but this album's a good one. Lots of big band, choppy funk with a big, bold, brassy sound. There are also quieter atmospheric moments. The sound is lush and full - there's obviously a large budget, and a large orchestra involved here. There are all sorts of music-types here - French accordian tunes, Jewish numbers, all with a great tongue-in-cheek feel. Check out 'Crazy soldiers' for a wicked midtempo brassy funk tune, and the short 'La cadillac en folie' for some hard action. Easy fans will dig the excellent uptempo organ groover on the flip. Good stuff.

Louis de funes is a french actor who is really funny to see but also to listen to. This C.D. has to be heard by everyone who understand french.
