    Someone please put me in a time capsule and take me back to the days when music was real, life was more simple, everyone loved each other. I still listen to old school music to drown out the negativity surrounding us these days, plus it gives me lots of positive memories….enjoy this music because they don’t make real music now.

    Con Funk Shun has been one of my favorite groups in the late 70's. This Album was perhaps my favorite one because I was deeply in love with a beautiful young lady from my hometown. I used to sing "Make It Last" to her all the time. The very first time I sung the song to her she came all the way to Fort Bragg, NC to visit me. Wow, those were the days.

      I have to agree johnny. This is special for me because when they came to Birmingham, AL in concert promoting this album, I got to see and fall in love with, a young Latina percussionist who was with them. She did the conga solo for the song "When The Feeling's Right". At the time, female percussionists were unheard of and when I saw her play, she had me hooked. The Latina was none other than the Legendary Sheila Escovedo! I've been a fan of hers ever since. I also agree with preving, I think this was their best album, followed by Candy, although Linda Lou McCall, widow to Louis McCall doesn't think so.

Even as youngster's we were selective in who we hung around we weren't off into all that violence and hard core crime Shit and guess what ? We're OGs now and NEVER been in prison. Bet A lot of people wish they could say the same !!!!

    • @duanewilliams464
      @duanewilliams464 Před 5 lety +4

      There are an abundance of reasons for that. Not the least of which is the music they are subjected to. I'll go to my grave believing the rap is the worst thing that has EVER happened to music. Let's not forget the violent nature of the most popular video games. You have black radio stations that employ announcers that speak no better than common street hoods; in fact, they embrace these DJ's. Our youth are being manipulated at every turn. But this is a story for another time, another forum.
      Confunkshun's "Loveshine" LP was their best. By far. Summer of '78. Sixteen years old. Summer of love for me-- well not quite. I was still chasing my first piece, but that too is a story for another time...

      @abdur-rahmanmuhammad9429 Před 4 lety +8

      Brother that is called a "falsetto" singing voice or style, as opposed to what is called the "natural" voice. The falsetto is actually a singing technique and not an actual voice type, like for example the one you've mentioned the"soprano". People who sing in this very high falsetto style almost always have a much deeper natural singing voice, for example Prince or Phillip Bailey of Earth Wind and Fire. Many singers actually don't care for the falsetto because it tends to make men sound like women, like for example the great Russell Thompkins Jr of the Stylistics. However during the 1970's almost every group had to have one because women loved it and it sold millions and millions of records.
