"Having first got into this band in 1977, I bought every album (vinyl in those days) - eight in all - up their final one 'Take it to The Limit'way back in 1984. They were on the TK label, and they combined soul, funk, and carribbean influences throughout their career to brilliant effect. Whatever happened to them? I think they originated from the Bahamas? 'Do What You Wanna Do' remain a dancefloor classic all around the world. Get this CD!"
A good place to start

"I've grown up listening to T-Connection in my younger days. Their songs Spend the Night with Me, Girl Watching, Paradise, etc were very popular here back then. I never knew their early albums. Luckily this 2-1 album exist and I can hear their early works and I was astonished that it was very different than the songs I knew. I realized they have two era and this album represents their first era. It's a good place to start to know T-Connection. I hope their later albums will be released on CD."
Funk With The T-Connection!

"These guys plundered all the right stuff-Earth,Wind & Fire,
Bar-Kays and George Duke's influences all found they're way into
their sound.The debut is probably the most potent with "Funkennection"-a strong George Duke-ish number,the rhythmically grooving "Saturday Night","Funky Lady" and "Come Back For More".And yes-on "Love Supreme" (NOT the Coltrane song)
T-Connection can deliver more then vapid slow jams-romantic
ballads are in their reach;something alot of funk bands couldn't
seem to fathom.GET FUNKED BY THE T-CONNECTION!!!!!!!!!!"
T-Connection at their very very best

"This two albums by T-Connection really grooves!! Much fantastic funk/disco here. I heard T-Connection for the first time just a couple of months ago, but now they are one of my favorite artists. The music is 8-10 years older than me, but still rocks like anything. Comin' Back For More must be one of the deepest funky tracks by any artist - ever."
Great Variety, Great Music

"OK, I bought this for "Doing Alright on a Saturday Night" and "At Midnight" however, I am happy to report the entire album is very listenable from start to finish. Kind of jazzy, disco, funk and a touch of gospel on "Got to see my lady".A great double album. The one question I have is where is their song "You're moving too slow, gotta let yourself go"? I remember hearing that on WBLS back in 1978."
