The Beginning Of The End - Funky Nassau

Bitrate: MP3@320K/s
Time: 35:19
Size: 80.8 MB
Styles: Funk, R&B, Island rhythms
Year: 1971/2001

Thirty years after its maiden voyage, Funky Nassau sails again on a digitally remastered CD. Their number 15 pop smash "Funky Nassau Part 1 & 2" is the cream of this hands-on production by the Bahamas natives. The nine cuts fuses island rhythms and American jazz/funk into a doable, choppy mixture featuring guitars, bass, drums, and scratch vocals. Misclassified as a disco band, the Beginning of the End served up breezy Phil Upchurch-esque sounds, with "Come Down" and "Surrey Ride" being prime examples. ~Andrew Hamilton
