17 track exploration of this talented Bahamas family unit’s output, ‘Nassau Funk’ brings together work from the late 60s and early 70s including the smash ‘Funky Nassau’, the soundalikes ‘Come Down Baby’ and ‘Monkey Tamarind’, the rasping ‘In The Deep’ the tough ‘Sleep On Dream On’, the hard edged socio-political ‘I’ve Got The News’ as well as the much sought after beat ballad ‘Fishman’, the fast paced ‘Jump In The Water’ the sublime, spacey ‘Bluestrain’ and the pulsating ‘Trip To Nowhere’. The group managed to carve out an instantly recognisable sound with a super tight groove and rock solid playing.
