This is gonna be my next Bar Kays purchase:


Released in the fall of 1981,'Nightcruising' is considered one of their best albums.Contains the hits "Hit And Run" and "Freaky Behavior".It's been remastered and contains a bonus track.

Out of the ones you listed, get the "Best of The Barkays" Volume 2. Get Volume 1 also if you can find it.

But if I were going to buy a Barkays album for the first time, I would start with "Nightcruising". As for "House Party", don't even buy that one because it's recent shit.

From this lot I would say, get Bar-Kays - Vol. 2-Best Bar-Kays for starters.

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.
