SuperFunk3.
Returning to three of our favourite sources of funk for this album means that we visit the works of producer Dave Hamilton, Peter Wright's Twinight label and Armen Boladian's Westbound set-up. From Westbound we pick up one side of the Houston Outlaws' only single for the label - although half a dozen sides remain unreleased. From Twinight we present Renaldo Domino's only release Let Me Come Within, a typical but strangely exhilarating James Brown-style groove. Dave Hamilton's archive gives up two slices of funk. The first, under his own name, is the previously unreleased Take Care Of Your Own Business-.-this is joined by Chico & Buddy with one side of their release on Jack Taylor's (of Rojac fame) Tayster imprint.
One of the most well received tracks on Super Funk Volume 2 was Li'l Buck's Monkey In A Sack from the La Louisianne label. Prompted by numerous requests - and due to the fact that a) the single is dead rare and b) the track is really good - we've put the other side, 'Cat Scream', on this volume. It seems that the New Orleans over spill was creating great funk all over Louisiana. Up at Modern Sound Studios in Crowley, Camille Bob - who had also recorded for La Louisianne - recorded the fantastic 'Brother Brown'. Eddie Shuler's Goldband label also ran a subsidiary called ANLA which specialised in R&B, came up with fine funk by the Soul Senders and Freddie Love amongst others.
