Trouble Funk

Vinyl Records and Rare LPs:

	Drop The Bomb New - LP - SH 266 Sealed 1982 Original. "Masters Of Washington, D.C.'S '80s Go-Go Craze, Trouble Funk Brought Early Hip-Hop To The Dance Floor With Deep Bass, Propulsive Rhythms, And Party Lyrics. Being Even More Inspired By '70s Funk Bands Like Chic, Cameo, And The Gap Band Than Either The Sugar Hill Gang Or Grandmaster Flash, Trouble Funk And Other Go-Go Acts Like EU And Chuck Brown Used The MC To Conduct Party-Time Call-And-Response Sessions And Not Generally For Street Poetry Raps À La Melle Mel And Kurtis Blow. A Celebratory Atmosphere Certainly Prevails On Sequel Records' Fine Trouble Funk Collection Drop The Bomb, With Many Of The Band's Prime Dance Hits Like The Title Track, "Get On Up," And "Let's Get Hot" Being Featured In Their Extended Versions. The Band's Nasty Synth Licks, Up-Front Percussion, And Sinewy Funk Guitar Lines Keep The Music Pumping Throughout, While Both The Go-Go/Rap Hybrid "Pump Me Up" And Barry White-Inspired Soul Ballad "Don't Try To Use Me" Show Off The Group's Musical Flexibility. The Set Is Rounded Out With The Ten-Minute, Bring-The-House-Down Jam "Supergrit," Which Nicely Incorporates The Funk Of Kool & The Gang And Earth Wind & Fire Into The Go-Go Mix. This Is A Great Introduction To Both Trouble Funk's Music And The Go-Go Sound." - AMG more
