38 tracks compilation of classic funk and funky soul cuts spread across a broad stylistic spread.
So many highlights with a mix of well known gems like Gil Scott-Heronâ™s The Bottle, Linda Cliffordâ™s Runaway Love, Joe Quartermanâ™s (I Got) So Much Trouble In My Mind, Curtis Mayfield‘s Tripping Out and Freddieâ™s Dead, Bobby Womack‘s If You Want My Love, Put Something Down On It, Aaron Neville‘s Hercules, Mavis Staples‘s A Piece Of The Action, Lee Dorsey Yes, We Can and Leroy Hutsonâ™s Lucky Fellow to maybe lesser known cuts like the Continental Showstopperâ™s funky Northern Not Too Young Alvin Cashâ™s frenetic Keep On Dancin and Jodi Gaylesâ™ sassy You Gotta Push.
Good, solid compilation of well produced funky soul.
