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-Heron’s ‘The Bottle’, Linda Clifford’s ‘Runaway Love’, Joe Quarterman’s ‘I Got So Much Trouble…’ and Leroy Hutson’s ‘Lucky Fellow’ to maybe lesser known cuts like the Continental Showstopper’s funky Northern ‘Not Too Young’ Alvin Cash’s frenetic ‘Keep On Dancin’ and Jodi Gayles’ sassy ‘You Gotta Push’. Good, solid comp of well produced funky soul.
