Not here to argue or dispute your comment. I believe they are the smartest of the Go-Go bands from the Washington DC area. They actually took Go-Go internationally. They are the most sampled Go-Go band, whose songs have been sampled by Kurtis Blow, Dougie Fresh, LL Cool J, and many others. The route they chose to take made the most sense (monetarily) for them. Who else is playing Go-Go music in Japan and England and other places around the globe? I love it!
I'm from London, England and I LOVE GO-GO!! Trouble Funk and Chuck Brown especially have a big place in my heart. Caught Trouble Funk last week in London on the 35th anniversary tour and they laid down a groove that would not be denied! Danced my funky ass off! Feeling low? Get some go-go on the decks and just get happy!
Again, when the great British producer Trevor Horn went and got the Trouble Funk percussionists to play on Slave To The Rhythm by Grace Jones....we knew....lol
9:30 Club was twenty minutes from my house. One of the greatest, most eclectic, forums for music. I saw everything from Funk to Henry Rollins, Chuck Brown to the Dead Kennedy's. Misting up thinking about all the shows, the range of emotions, the level of energy.
We threw down to this when I was 17 or so. Love the chords from 7:34-8:40 (gone girl!). Lessons from this video: 1) Age shouldn't stop anybody from throwing down. 2) Excess weight shouldn't stop anybody from throwing down. 3) The fact that the current 15-30 yr-old crowd isn't throwing down, shouldn't stop anybody from throwing down.
Damn! Trouble Funk sounds damn good! I like what you doing when you do what you do, My second favorite Go Go Band next to Chuck Brown, T F crankin it live!
Hmmm. 9:30 club. I saw SO many shows there. This was one of my favorites...Born in DC, Lived in Silver Spring...Moved to Philly in '91 after UMCP College Park (PG county YO!!!!) I miss this and Love you for posting it!!! I saw them there a few times! Happy tears!!!!
@@kenneymccall8568 They’re probably not gonna use so I want I just need them transfer all these over to PBL and then will assign the ones from the overflow section to them because he’s here that they’ve got assigned here are going to expire and then they will have it any news on TV right now good just leave them where they aren’t
Just so everyone knows there's a new Trouble Funk DVD out right now "TeeBone's Retirement Concert" Big Tony & Trouble Funk Live @ The 9:30 Club. For more watch the trailer.
I just wish dude on the drums would close up that dayyum hi hat cause we didn't use that sound back in the day. It's good to see some old as men still know how to Krrrrrrrank!

Peace to the trouble funk.......love from Aberdeen Scotland ❤
EU and Trouble were always my favorite Go-Go bands! I always liked that Trouble came at you LOUD!
Trouble might be the most underrated GoGo Band of all-time! Straight Krank Icons!
I think they're only underrated because they left the seen a lot earlier than EU & Essence.
I like this. You don’t here every day
They was straight jamming
