Classic Funk

(4 out of 5 stars)
"After most of the original members died in a plane crash with Otis Redding & years of being the house band for Stax (Isaac Hayes & others) the band returned to the charts with a new funk groove, tight horn section & vocals.Borrowing from the hottest group at the time (The Ohio Players) & adding their own unique style produced an excellent Lp. From " Shake your Rump to the Funk","Too Hot to Stop" & "Spellbound" to the album cut "Cozy" this Lp is not to be overlooked. Another alumni from 1976. Larry Dobson's vocals are outstanding."
