'Winners' is such an underrated album! It's a perfect album that sorta got lost in the shuffle,mainly because of all the other great albums that came out during the same period (Rick James' 'Street Songs',The Commodores' 'In The Pocket',etc).

The Commodores' 'In The Pocket' is a great album? hmm

It's got like two good cuts on it lol
I should spin it again in its entirety, maybe the album has grown on me hmmm
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.
