In a funk mood

Todays Amoeba purchases.

Sly & Family Stone seven disc limited edition deluxe box set
Its all seven Sly records in one set, with bonus shit. I just had to own it. Say what you will about Sly, but this shit is the real.

VA - California Soul 2 (Raw And Rare Soul from the West Coast 1966-1982)
Luv N' Haight puts out these compilations of rare funk and R&B that I just can't resist. When I go bankrupt in the next year or so it will be mostly due to this label.

Numero 014 - Cult Cargo (Grand Bahama Goombay)
I'm letting you in on a dirty little soul secret. The Numero Group out of England releases some of the nastiest, grittiest and rare soul music around. I have no idea where they dig it up. This particular release is the second in their series of Pan-American funk bands from 1969-1976. Say huh?
