RAPHAEL MUNNINGS: Nassau Funky (2014)

Nassau Funky Raphael Munnings[RATING: 5] Good lord! Nassau Funky is four straight fire slept-on lost 70s funk gems from the man behind Funky Nassau – Raphael Munnings. Drop everything and give nothing else your attention until you have bought a copy. Opener Opportunity Knockin’ is the best tropical funk cut you’ve heard since – er – well since Funky Nassau and rivals that with its calypso-funk wah-wah groove. Sleep On Dream On adds an organ-led West Coast psychedelic flavour to the funky mix, Takin You Higher punctuates the horns with pneumatic hi-hats and closer Loneliness takes the lights down for the swoonsome downtempo groover Loneliness. Nassau’s got a whole lot of soul indeed.
