Funk

Review: Juno exclusive repress on two monster funk classics from Billy Garner pressed on yellow vinyl and limited to 250 copies

Review: Two monsters get reissued back to back on limited colour wax on an official exclusive reissue on colour wax for Juno. What A Man is in infectious slice of female soul whilst the flip see's a funky jazz grooved organ workout from Billy Hawks... A Gilles Peterson classic from back in the day...

Review: Mukatsuku presents the second volume of killer Ghanaian highlife/afrofunk monsters this time focusing on two artists legendary in the genre. First up first time on a 45 from 1980 is '' What Is Life '' from the Ebo Taylor & Uhuru Yenzu album ''Conflict Nkru! ''. Amazing brass,flute and afrocentric rhythms lay the path for the track once heard never forgotten. On the flip first time ever on a 45 Pat Thomas who features on volume 1 of the series comes correct with possibly the best version (and there are a few ) of ''Gyae Su'' . With its jangly african guitar licks and infectious chorus lines the feel good factor is set to maximum. Another dope afro burner on Mukatsuku and sure to sell out fast. 500 hand numbered copies and no repress.Juno copies come in exclusive card sleeve
