FUNK45 042EP
|
A furious piece of super tough Afro-funk. "Gettin' to Business" is a heavy-duty, densely syncopated dancefloor-killer with a commanding vocal complete with JB-style screams and grunts. This was once thought to only exist as an uncredited acetate before a couple of copies of a French-only 45 pressing were unearthed.

FUNK45 041EP
|
A long-established classic of the deep funk genre, The Marlboro Men's "Iron Horse" has been filling dancefloors and appearing on want-lists for many a year. As such it's surely a long overdue 45 reissue as is, but what makes this release really special and essential for any funk collector is the inclusion on the flip side of the previously unreleased instrumental version of "Iron Horse," appearing here for the first time as taken from the original 40-year-old master tapes.

FUNK45 040EP
|
Taken from an album as good as it is, it's difficult to select two tracks deserved of the 45 treatment. But here they are, due to popular demand: two of the best tunes from Funk45's celebrated Master Plan LP released recently (JMAN 058CD/LP). Cut loud for devastating effect.

FUNK45 039EP
|
Previously known only as a one-off acetate that fetched a four-figure sum at auction, Funk45 is proud to present both sides of this unique funk monster rarity in its entirety, and in the 7" format as originally intended. Robert Baines cut this acetate during his one and only recording session at Mastertone Studios in New York in 1970. Side A showcases his vocals while Side B is punctuated by a fiery Hammond. It's a travesty that this heavy funk bomb has remained unissued and unheard for so long -- until now.
