Funk and jazz colliding on the Eastern Bloc a few years after the Prague Spring and the Soviet tank invasion of 1968.
A perfect introduction for Czech jazz with groove, with one of the masters: Emil Viklický.
Emil Viklický is one of the most renowned Czech jazz musicians and composers. This focused-on-funk selection was recorded between 1975 and 1987 in Czechoslovak studios. Be it with the legendary SHQ or with Energit, accompanying Eva Svobodová, conducting a tight studio big band or collaborating with fellow Berklee College students Frisell / Driscoll / Johnson, Emil knows how to funk up his keys all the way through.
