Funk Fever(180Gm)

Massive 4CD compilation, Funk Fever straddles many, many styles that fall under the funk banner as well as everything from the super-rare to the classic. Barbara King’s super rare Gulfstream version of ‘What I Did In The Street’ kicks things off and Disc 1 carries on with mainly more obscure, ‘Deep Funk’ cuts from Vern Blair (‘Ooh Ah Ee’) Robert Jay’s ‘Alcohol’, The PC’s Ltd insane ‘Fast Man’ and Sandi & Matues ‘The World’. Disc 2 blends more classics and rarities, namely Vanessa Kendrick ’90 % Of Me Is You’, Esther Williams’ ‘Last Night Changed It All’ and Freda Payne’s ‘Unhooked Generation’ alongside Lou Prides massively in demand ‘It’s A Man’s World’. The highlights are many across the next two discs, but include Lemuria ‘Hunk Of Heaven’, Tommy Stewart ‘Bump & Hustle Music’, Quantic ‘Don’t Joke With A Hungry Man’ and many more. 76 tracks in total on the CD.
