Vinyl LP pressing. 12 funk grooves from the legendary Chicago Brunswick label featuring dance floor winners and sampled cuts from Jackie Wilson, Erma Franklin & Young-Holt Unlimited plus rare tracks from The Eliminators, Total Eclipse and Floyd Smith. The legendary record label Brunswick Records is home to a plethora of amazing recordings from classic soul to rhythm & blues. In this collection we trawl through the vaults to present you with twelve of the finest funk inspired tracks which are sure to get you perspiring on the dance-floor. Classics come in the way of Gene Chandler's scintillating cover of James Brown's There Was A Time, Erma Franklin's Light My Fire from her timeless album Soul Sister and Exit 9 with Miss Funky Fox - a remarkable addition to the Brunswick catalogue given these musicians were only between the ages 16-20.

All of which will get your reaching for your original album copy.
