Artist: VARIOUS</br>genre: Popular Music</br>product type: Compact Disc</br>Release Date: 5-MAY-1998</br>Returns Accepted?: Yes</br></br>Product Description</br></br>I was enticed to buy this compilation album when I saw top songs by the original groups that made them famous: Commodores?? Average White Band?? Earth Wind And Fire?? Kool and The Gang?? Patti LaBelle?? Jean Knight?? Carl Douglas?? Rose Royce?? Curtis Mayfield?? Isaac Hayes?? Ohio Players?? Chic?? The Gap Band?? Rick James?? and more. I loved most of these tracks when they were new?? and I'm not ashamed to say that I still do (at least most of them) :-) There are tracks from groups with great success and longevity?? and some that are one-hit wonders?? but this is a good sampling of the age of Funk. These tracks are good for listening?? dancing (if you still do)?? and reminiscing.</br><br/>http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000006NX9
