WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
music collections that should not be overlooked. Already having released the previous Jazz Funk and Rare Groove volumes on vinyl for the first time, Music On Vinyl has now turned its attention to Funk. And again, don't let the sleeve fool you; cheesy artwork it may have, but this isn't a cheesy choice of tunes pressed on these two beautiful slices of black gold - for the first time, we might add.
The seductive & sultry voice of Sly Stone caresses its way over the narcotic groove of 'Family Affair', while The O'Jays' 'For The Love Of Money' has a hypnotic and hesitating cadence to it that makes it simply irresistible. Locksmith's lesser known 'Unlock The Funk' stomps its way through a 4 ½ minute funk phenomenon where Bill Withers' 'Harlem' thumps and grinds out a condemnation and homage to New York's most famous borough. Master Series: Funk Vol. 1 includes B-Boy favourite 'It's Just Begun' by The Jimmy Castor Bunch and Tom Browne's 'Funkin' For Jamaica', it will take you To The Next Phase of skunk-funk Fo Sho!
