CD Reviews
British 70s Funk!
F. Lewis | DownEastNC | 01/07/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)
"I'm one of those people who loves to collect things from all over the world. So one can imagine the delight I felt upon finding this musical gem. Our funk brothers from accross the pond found excellent continuity with us here in the colonies. Conceivably, one could leave a party in New York, fly to London and pickup right where one left off. But, I digress. This is fine funk is reminiscent of Brass Construction, Mass Production, early Commodores, Rufus and a whole host of other hot horn sectioned, jam bands of the 70s and early 80s. What is more, there are early elements of one of my favorite British bands, Incognito. Two funky feet stompin' the floor for this one!"
