THE BEST DANCE MUSIC FROM BACK IN MY DISCO ERA
the funk master bohannon was the most incredible dance music back in the day ... anybody who appreciates 'let's start II dance again'...knows what i'm talking about.
this was so big in the 'arena' in ridgewood, queens, the great dance clubs of brooklyn as well.. nothing ever came close.
whenever the great deejays would mix the classic disco, they'd pump in bohannon and everybody went nuts on the dance floor.
bohannon, you live forever in my heart !! joe cauzy you know what i'm talking about :o)
Now THAT'S Funk!
Finally, a CD that delivers the funk how it's meant to be played, danced and listened to. Great stuff!
An Underappreciated Funk Master
Hamilton Bohannon is to funk what John Mayall is to rock. He was rarely on the charts, but it's a rare big name in the genre who doesn't owe some part of his inspiration to him. Another reviewer has pointed out the timeliness of Bohannon's music. Only last week I was hearing something on a contemporary rock station, and its beat was pure Bohannon - the Bohannon Beat - a smooth, dancable, moderated tempo with a syncopated side beat. When you normally think of disco and funk, you think hot, but Bohannon succeeds in making disco and funk cool. When you're atuned to this beat, you can't help thinking, "Ah, Bohannon!" when you hear other artists pay tribute in their music to this underappreciated funk master.
