私なりのソウル/ファンク100選を考えた。
あまり考えても仕方ないのと、こんなことを考えるのはこれっきりに
したい(笑)ので、年代の縛りを取っ払って選ぶことにした。
アレが抜けている、コレが抜けているのは単に私がアルバムを所持して
いないからかもしれないし、強力な意思が働いているかもしれない。
ジョー・サイモンが抜けているのは前者だし、マーヴィン・ゲイの選盤が
「LET'S GET IT ON」なのは後者だ。
ベスト盤は選ばないつもりだったが、どうしても外せなかったので2枚だけ
選んだ。モータウンが冷遇されているように感じるが、アルバム100選でなく
「100曲」だったら全く違う展開になるだろう。
日本のロック・フォーク100選の時と同じく1アーティスト1枚縛り。
