Mantus - Midnight energy

http://www3.zippyshare.com/v/1gNvJBx7/file.html


Mantus was a pretty successful NYC band from the end of the 70s. This first LP is basically a compilation of some of their maxis. one could regret that some great tracks (like "Turn around boogie down") are not on it, despite the album short length, though, but it makes up for it by forcing you to hunt maxis

Slick - Slick.

http://www97.zippyshare.com/v/beFVW4MK/file.html


This is the first album by this band under its name, but you heard them before for it is in fact the backing band of Fat Larry's band ! and they do very well without him (even if, I believe, Sexy cream was banned from UK radios for whatever reason)

The gap band - The gap band

http://www115.zippyshare.com/v/oUvdZtYG/file.html


I don't know why but for some reason the first Gap band album and this one are pretty often ignored. maybe thats's because of their dumb idea of naming them "Gap band 1", "Gap band 2" and so on after they went on the Mercury label and successful, but whatever strong Sly and the family stone influence for this recommended 1977 output

Norman Connors - Mr. C.

http://www66.zippyshare.com/v/bedcaHE4/file.html


Norman Connors was initially a jazz-funk drummer but he always caught the hype of the time so it's no surprise to find him in a boogie (sometimes almost P !) setting on this 1981 album, although the smashing title track reminds everyone where he comes from

I haven't seen it too but since some comments say it is on netflix it should be possible to find it somewhere
otherwise I only have A nickle and a nail is on here and also an ace of spades by him but since it's a soul monument I may as well get some will and take a listen to his other albums. thanks for reminding me !


F.A.T. - Funky and tough

Fats was a larger than life drummer, he played with everyone and died on may 11 so RIP you funky lardo. Anyway, here is probably his masterpiece, since there's just nothing to throw away from this mind mashing collection of deep fried funk nuggets
