Had to chime in with a "Right On!" Billy. And please let me add the
almighty Ohio Players to that mix. And heck, I'll admit to even like
some of the non-funky Commodores stuff: Sail On, Easy. Yeah, I know
they're kinda cheesy, but they're also awfully well done. My recent mix
disc of that "stuff" also included The Brothers Johnson and some early
K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Harry Casey was one funky white man!
Can I get a witness?
Rock the Funk!
