Description

 

THIS ORIGINAL, STILL SEALED 1967 ALBUM INCLUDES SOME OF THE HARDEST, EARTHIEST FUNK THE LATE ’60s PRODUCED. “DYKE & THE BLAZERS” WEREN’T INNOVATORS, BUT THEY WERE AMONG THE EARLIEST -- AND BEST -- TO PICK UP ON JAMES BROWN’S EARLY FUNK SOUND. THEIR GROOVES WERE LOOSE, CHOPPY, AND IMPROVISATIONAL, AND PRETTY MUCH DEFINED THE WORD “STANKY”. THEIR ORIGINAL VERSION OF “FUNKY BROADWAY” MAKES WILSON PICKETT’S HIT COVER SOUND LIKE IT ROLLED OFF THE MOTOWN ASSEMBLY LINE. DYKE & THE BLAZERS’ WORK STILL HOLDS UP EXTREMELY WELL, AND FUNK FANS SHOULDN’T HESITATE TO EMBRACE THESE EARLY STANDARD-BEARERS.
