That first toon sounds like a parody song. The second one was ha real groove, just no melody.

I'm loving this track! Never heard of this guy before , but I will be playing along with this bassline at the first possible juncture. Big afro, squelchy synth bass[i] and[/i] a punchy slapped Alembic? Triple bonus! Why can't records be like this nowadays?

I bought that LP on the day it was released. It's seems a long, long time ago now.

Back in the days when we queued outside record shops for long anticipated LP or Single releases.

just like Risington's ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC post.! I think the lines, as to what funk is and what is not, can be blurred, not just by that awsome Delegation album, but also by these guys.[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaZIyuGAAYo[/media]
