"For those who hail from the DC area, Chuck Brown's genius needs no description. But for those of you from elsewhere in the US, Chuck Brown is a DC legend known as the "Godfather of Go-Go", a unique musical style particular to this area that encompasses elements of jazz, calypso, funk and soul. And Chuck Brown is the master. This collection has all his best jams, including some outstanding live performances. Easily one of my favorite albums in my collection. An absolute must-have for any go-go or funk fan. Even if you've never heard of Chuck Brown, but you like funky, soulful music, buy this record right now."

I feel like Bustin' Loose ! ! !

"I've always argued that Chuck Brown's really a guy you gotta catch live, because live is him at his best... and even when you catch him live on tape, it doesn't sound good as live in person... but then, I forgot about "CLASSIC" Chuck Brown... and this is the album that has that has him when he did know how to sizzle in the studio... the right "greatest" hits were picked for this compilation... BUSTIN LOOSE, MONEY, BACK IT ON UP and many of the others are house party funk dance classics. - - If you're not lucky enough to be able to catch him live ASAP, and need a dose, buy two, three or four copies of this, and play it everywhere !"
