Track 13 - Superfly Meets Shaft / John And Earnest

A neat compilation that covers a range of different funk stylings, from hard, to pyscho, to soulful. I've never heard of Fu Music before but they have some good taste whoever they are. A couple of the tracks appear on other funk comps around the place but for the most part it warrants the rare groove tag. I mentioned John And Earnest in my review of Playtime Vol.3 and they appear on this disk with another fun novelty tune called "Superfly Meets Shaft" which incorporates samples from popular funk songs of the period. Thx to the original uploader.

Great music, but a terrible cover. I might have even clicked it away, had I not read the title first (Grooves from 1970-76 are my special field).

Yeah, I don't know what's going on with that cover but the music certainly makes up for it!

Awesome is there a way to download this as mp3s?

They should be MP3's. Do you mean that they are contained in a RAR file? If so you can use an extractor such as WinRar which is free and available on the internet.
