It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Oh deary me !

It`s very rare I venture back into my old stuff these days , but its a hot and sticky day and I`m off work so I dug out a few ; started on an Isley tip and would add to the list of Isley funk Young Girls and Eighth Wonder by Isley Jasper Isley if that counts.

I have also re-discovered "You Aint Hip" by Don Blackman , Never Gonna Tell It by Phillipe Wynne , Moment Of My Life by Inner Life , Landshark by Bootsy and Godmoma Here by (unsurprisingly) Godmama.
Obviously not in that order and at the expense of all those little jobs my wife expected me to do before she came home from work !
I`m in the doghouse a bit , but I am happy and funky.

Today's listeners think The Isley Brothers was one of those groups that made slow songs only. The sad part about it is, The Isley Brothers make nothing but slow shit these days and they themselves seem to forget that they had some of the baddest and hardest funk out there such as:

Livin' In The Life/Go For Your Guns
Live It Up
Go All The Way
Don't Let Up
People Of Today
Hope You Feel Better Love
Who Said
The Pride
Showdown
Climbin' Up The Ladder
I Wanna Be With You
Love Fever
Mind Over Matter
Winner Takes All
Party Night
It's a Disco Night
Hurry Up And Wait
Fight The Power
It's Your Thing
Pass It On
Young Girls
Who's That Lady
The Real Deal
Inside You
Tell Me When You Need It Again
Rockin' With Fire
Take Me To The Next Phase

Also, in 1982, they produced the group Sunrize which had a jam from hell called "Who's Stickin' It". It will make your ass shake till you're out of breath. lol
