To Sidney Poitier RIP, a truly funky Nassau soul. I know he wasn't known for funky music but this came straight to mind when I heard about his death. Funk on!
You should not have reverted to the junkanoo rythm after tapping into the jackpot of gold .The junkanoo rythm is a common afr Caribbean rythm that is been exhausted by the calypso composers .I think they have made a big mistake going back.
"We do blues, rhythm & blues, jazz, funk, soul. We can handle rock, pop, country, heavy metal, fusion, hip hop, rap, Motown, operetta, show tunes. In fact, we've even been called upon, on occasion, to do a polka! However, Caribbean is a type of music, I regret to say, which has not been, is simply not, nor will ever be a part of this band's repertoire."
A 12” 45 rpm? That’s weird.
