I Don't Know What It Is But It Sure Is Funky is on their debut album, the self-titled 'Ripple' (pictured above). They only released two albums. Their second album came out in '77, if I recall correctly. The album is called 'Sons Of The Gods'.

Looks like this is going to be yet another (nearly) empty thread. Guess I should change the title to "MICHAEL JACKSON THREAD" or maybe "MADONNA THREAD". I bet that would lure you suckas in here...

My folks got that album.I played it for the first time last year and heard the song "I Don't Know What It Is But It Sure Is Funky" and was floored. "So THATS where Kid 'n Play got that from" was my afterthought of course.

All credit for those drink creations should go directly to Fred G. Sanford...period smile

And yes, smoking jacket and an ascot are required drinking attire. wink
