one of my all time favorite songs it was deleted somehow from my favorites and I just can't live in a world where I can't hear this track at any time. thank you for posting, good quality on the audio although a couple of times the compression clamps a little hard.
From a 70s point of view, I can understand. But black-owned radio stations did refer to this music as funk, as well as artists who composed and played this kind of music. I do hear elements of what would constitute funk in many early 80s funk, but it slowly disappeared after about 1983. I think the use of the blue note is what really makes the difference. I can hear this in many of General Caine's music, especially Girls. Girls and Cutie Pie are some of the best examples of early 80s funk.
I think this kind of music in the very early 80s wasn't created for pop locking. People danced to this in clubs like they would to any song. These kinds of songs were more like fillers for radio stations to avoid the monotony of the more popular songs. They'd play songs like these a few times and you'd never hear them again. I never heard this song but I'm sure there were plenty of them for listening pleasure as well as dancing.
@djJackMF ...A wise man once said don't argue with fools...because from a distance, people can not tell who is who!!!!!!!! So I'm sorry I got you all in your feelings DJjackmeoff!!!!!!!!!!!
@djJackMF Yawn!!!!!! Whatever man...if you like 80's boogie, its all good...do your thing. Jump back a decade, do your homework, then join the club. All of those bands you listed are dope as hell ....but I can't call them true funk artist.
When people call anything made in the 80's funk it makes me cringe 80s boogie is to Deep Funk as Smooth Jazz is to Hard bop. This is not real funk to me at all.
Because 714 is the area code of "ORANGE COUNTY" California. The home of cruising to nothing but funk!
