With music this great, it's easy to stay on the groove – especially when the groove's so hard and funky! The set's a killer batch of work from the deep funk underground – the contemporary scene that does a great job of recreating the sounds and styles of late 60s/early 70s funky 45s – mostly on 45-only releases, which means that a number of the tracks here are showing up on CD for the first time! The package is massive – 17 tracks in all, and very well chosen by the folks at Freestyle – who've issued plenty of funky 45s of their own. Titles include "Droppin" by Funkshone, "You Got Me Thinkin" by The Tornadoes, "Hope" by Glen Anthony Henry, "Billy's Popcorn" by Brand New Rhythm, "Are You Ready To The Party" by Mr Comicstore with Nicole Willis, "Emu Brown" by Mike L, "Rampage" by Whitefield Brothers, "I Can't Stand It" by Soul Snatchers, "Got To Lose Your Way" by Haggis Horns, "Turn It Up" by Open Souls, "Take A Chance" by Speedometer, and "Killin It" by The Dynamites with Charles Walker.
