Album Review

Con Funk Shun's brand of funk was polished with spirited horns, titillating guitar rhythms, and ear-pleasing vocals. These 17 tracks encompass the group's tenure at Mercury beginning with their first charted single, "Sho' Feels Good to Me," and also including six Top Ten singles, three Top 20 singles, and a horde of Top 30 hits. Of the many gems found on this compilation album, two that never charted are "Love's Train" and "All Up to You," both quiet storm classics. Also included in this package are liner notes by Harry Weinger, chronicling the self-contained septet's reign of funk and impact on the music industry. All numbers feature the lead vocals of Felton Pilate and Michael Cooper.

Okay. So.

Initially, I was joking around, and I was gonna write some really weird comment on here. BUT. then i looked at one of the songs. HOLY CRIPES! this is amazing. so, i've only listened to about 4 30 second clips, but i wish i was born in the 70s.

Love It!

This is such a beautiful album. I saw ConFunkShun years ago at a New Years party in Sacramento, and let me tell you, they were HOT! They still had at least the two main singers. The one with the deep voice, and the one with the soft high pitched voice, and they needed at least those two to pull off a great concert. I was screaming up front at the soft ballards because they sang so good. I want to see them again.
