This episode stretches the definition of funk without losing the thread. You get Gerard Alain’s dangerous title-track bite, Dumpstaphunk’s New Orleans room, The Blackbyrds’ sleek jazz-funk polish, and Annie Lennox’s global call-and-response on “Sing.” Along the way, ska, dub, blues, hip-hop, and artful soul all get a seat at the table. Put this on when one style won’t do and your speakers need a workout.
For Funk's Sake is hosted by me, Bruce Caines, and comes to you each week from the studios of OWWR, Old Westbury Web Radio (owwrny.org).
