5.0 out of 5 stars Must own this, September 9, 2007

this is the best funk compilation out there. you may also like bay area funk and the funky 16 corners. check out http://www.stonesthrow.com/nowagain for other old great funk/soul. some of the recording quality on these are not as good as you may be used to, but on some tracks the grittiness of it actually adds to the sound.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rare Funk Revisited, April 18, 2005

By	Brother "The 'G' Meister" (San Antonio, Texas USA) - See all my reviews

To say that no funk ever came out of Texas would be a lie. This album has what it takes to fill your groove with the funk that moves you. I was surprised when I sat down to listen to this collection that I called and recommend this to all my friends who want something different. In a day when most of he music we hear is replecated electronicaly it was refreshing to hear these bands give it their best shot. These were the days when a hit 45 could make you an overnight sensation and it sounds like each group were trying to accomplish just that. Is it worth the money, I think so. (I liked the groups from the Houston area!)
