Horns!



A record I'm sure has been spun by every funk DJ in the world at least once. Which only means it's really good. I may be a vinyl snob, but I'm not the kind of snob which values obscurity over a funky groove.

And yes indeed, it's truly a monster groove. Did fairly well when it was released too, although the Counts [they issued issued a few records under the shortened name] never really got the push they deserved from their labels. After three albums, the band called it quits.

Out of Detroit in 1968. Richard "Popcorn" Wylie lends a hand with the superb production.


Lunar Funk [actually, Part 2 of "Get Down People"]
