whats their best albums?

Start with their 1970 debut album East Bay Grease

then check out the next three albums: Bump City,Tower Of Power and Back To Oakland

Those four albums are their best work,imo.

COOL THANKS

They also recorded an excellent 'live' album in the mid-70s....it's called Live And In Living Color.That one is a must-have too!

in the slot!!

extend that with Urban Renewal and In The Slot and I'm on board
Only so much Oil is my absolute fave by them, driving heavy soulful funk, it does not get better than that!

and you can save quite some bucks if you get this 5 CD set

^^those 5-CD box sets are great,huh? I have several of those.I got a Chaka Khan set and a Bootsy Collins set.No bonus tracks or fancy packaging,but that's OK.

excellent value for money. 5 CDs for the price of 1.
though my wife would not really believe me when I told her "Look how much money I saved!" and then showed her this

even though I have probably more than half on vinyl (or CD) already it's a great opportunity to fill some gaps in the collection. Sony has also some nice 5-packs (O'Jays, Teddy Pendergrass, Stanley Clarke etc.) but nowhere as fruitful as the series above

there's a Rufus and Chaka Khan set that is being released this month,if I'm not mistaken.
