5.0 out of 5 stars HEAVY, HEAVY, Groove., May 30, 1999

By A Customer

They just don't make music like this anymore! Unless you are a fan of old-school disco with a heavy dose of funk, stay away from this cd. If you ARE a fan though...buy this compilation. Close you're eyes...You can just see the afros and platform shoes...

4.0 out of 5 stars Do it (till you're satisfied ! )..., October 21, 2005

By	Ian O'connor "Connor" (Istanbul TURKEY) - See all my reviews

In the 1970s, it wasn't uncommon to find a funk band that was entirely self-contained - all of the producing, writing, and arranging was done by actual bandmembers, not outsiders. This funk-disco group was formed by Jeff Lane in 1972 in Brooklyn NY. They started as David House Rockers in 1972 and later were called the Brooklyn Trucking Express. They were never totally self-contained; even its first major hit, "Do It ('Til You're Satisfied)," was written by someone who wasn't an official member: guitarist Billy Nichols. The group consisted keyboardist Michael Jones (later well known as Kashif). Nevertheless the Best of B.T has such a good track list and without them your funk collection is incomplete. On the whole this disc is something funksters should savor.
