Thanks for posting about Kool & The Gang, I have been playing their music all night since encountering this thread. I loved them as a kid and had their greatest hits album, but never really revisited their music in the last decades. Sweet memories and groovy tunes, they sure knew how to write catchy funkpop songs! Their oldschool early funk is fantastic as well. RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time... |
