Let's party yall!
At 2:57 all the orgers say oooh oooh! oooh oooh! oooh oooh!

my shiz

Sunn0))) ?

Love Sun....one of my fave quotes EVER on "the Org" was the person (sorry don't remember who) said of this track that they loved it because the music box intro let them know "that the funk was COMING". LMAO. So true.

Props to Byron & the boys....one of many great jams outta Ohio.

Everytime I go on a vinyl dig,I always look for albums by Sun but they're hard to find My favorite song by them is "Radiation Level" plus the slow jams "I Had A Choice" and "Baby I Confess".

Hometown boys! it was nothing to be seeing these guys around town at McDonalds or something. Growing up in Dayton, Ohio was a treat. You saw the groups everywhere. Rumor has it that there were 13 groups signed to major labels from the Dayton area. It was nothing to see Larry Troutman walking up Salem Avenue, poppin his collar. I believe Byron Byrd lives in London. Kym Yancey has an insurance business in Dayton. Don Taylor still gigs around the area.

My favorite Sun jam is Reaction Satisfaction.

Yes they are. The only one i have is Radiation Level. I like sun is here, wanna make love(which introduced me to the band when i was a little boy), conscience,
and light me up on the yellow album. Funkenstein knows about that yellow vinyl album.

The instrumental "We're So Hot" is my jam. Funky as an unwashed navel.

Ass shakin' music dammitt!

And don't forget "Reaction Satisfaction (Jam Y'all, Funk It Up)".

As far as I know, these are all the albums Sun ever released (NOTE: The first album was released with two different covers, one has a close-up of a sweaty woman, and the other one has just the yellow 'Sun' logo in the middle of a red & orange cover)




Here's what the 'infamous' ( ) orange album looks like,

Damn,how come I never see these albums on my vinyl digs?! That one with the orange vinyl is a must-have!!

SoulAlive said:

My favorite is prolly 'Sunburn' (the one with the ladies sunbathing on the cover). You should definitely look for that one

I remember barely my uncle having the gold vinyl album when i was a little
boy. I forgot conscience was on that album too. Light me up was the shit
though.
