Cosmic Dancing – Rare & Unreleased Virginia Funk 1976 – 1980
LP (Item 377994) Funky Delicacies/Tuff City, Late 70s — Condition: New Copy
A sweet set of Earth Wind & Fire-inspired grooves from Poison – an obscure 70s funk combo that hailed from Richmond, VA! The group's outfits, righteousness, and instrumentation clearly show a strong debt to EWF – but there's also a roughness to some of the tracks that belies their southern funk roots – particularly on the album's break-intro track "Do What You Wanna Do" – a great bit of party funk! Other cuts nicely intercut guitar riffing, soaring vocal harmonies, and some full-on horns and percussion – pushing things to the skies on a great set of tracks that includes a few unreleased numbers alongside tracks from the group's only album on Roulette. Titles include the previously unreleased numbers "Funky Graveyard" and "Long Train Runnin" – plus the cuts "Let Me Lay My Funk On You", "Unity Man", "Music Is Our Destiny", "Cosmic Dancing", "Our Place In Time", and "Do What You Wanna Do". 11 tracks on the LP. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
