Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Mama get your mojo, papa get your gun!A very good compilation, worth the price alone for two outstanding songs by The Highliters Band and The Rhythm Machine. The Highliters put on a fantastic groove, and as the liner notes says even caught the attention of The Rhythm King himself Jaames Brown! Maybe he wanted to sue, heh heh, because the groove has been removed from his pocket! This rates amongst the better funk compilations togheter with New Orleans Funk, Texas Funk, Florida Funk and King Funk. Rating:  - WHAT ABOUT YOU? - JUST BUY IT!!This is an essential real funk collection for anybody out there who likes a bit of funk already or is thinking about dabbling. All the tracks are good but the stand out for me is 'What about you (in the world today)' which is extraordinary alone for being just vocals and drums. The track is so funky that I didn't even notice the absence of other instruments until the 4th or 5th listen!(who needs over produced modern soul/r&b with multi layered instruments??). I honestly don't think anybody would be disappointed with this album. If they are shoot them! Rating: - Funking classicA rather neat idea to expose the lesser known funky bands in the USA by producing an album that will give these bands a fair share in sales. That alone gets a thumbs up from me. I own the Funk Spectrum trilogy, which I love to death. (Look for Funk Spectrum 1, 2 and 3 separately). This album is on par with those ones, although the one major difference is that where as the Funk Spectrum albums have a variation and allow the user to recover from amazing tracks with a selection of less dirty in your face tracks. This CD though is in your face all the time. That is not a bad thing, but without a little variation it can become a little ‘samey’. The standout track is the on the album is named after, but the others are just as good., ...

Yes there is a lot of good music to be bought right now, but take a turn away from commercialism and buy somthing trully special, i can guarantee that anyone with a open minded view to musical talent will love this album. Rating: - Deep, Raw And Godly Dirty Funk!Deep, raw and godly dirty funk - immaculately researched and compiled - this here is the authentic street noise, tangy as newly laid asphalt. This disc will be culled and dissected by many a breaks thirsty crew - the 7 minute hiphop fest feat. by the Cut Chemist (of Jurassic 5) is too reverent to exploit the obvious dynamite potential of what's offered up. Don't expect to recognise a single track - unless you are sunk to Davy Jone's Locker in the Funk - these are real rarities, check Soul Seven, Bubbha Thomas and The Lightmen, The Highlighter's Band - and the outstanding chilled jazz-funk of The Wooden Glass. Buy and Devour this album, you'll forever be blessed with the best funk grin on your chops - remember Tighten Up Tighter now, brother. |
