Funk Essentials - Under The Radar


Feel free to mention EWF, Parliament, etc., but I'm curious as to which releases this group thinks might be the overlooked gems.

TIA

Slave's first two albums are off the hook. Cameo and The Gap Band are perveyuers of the funk mantle too.
Sorry -

I always try to thank everyone for their input and I haven't yet done so, so I will now.

Thank You!
I've got a baker's dozen on the way from CD Connection.
