Here we go again...OG vinyl, too many records lurking in the shadows, never enough time! This time around we're sticking to the funk...known to be a signature sound throughout So Cal over the decades. And if you live for the funk, the funk never dies! You already know the sound of the classics, from One Way - to Zapp - to the Gap Band, now hear some of the more obscure acts that are just as funky (if not more). We're doin it old school style, and in typical old school fashion - this goes out to everyone from the 562, 909, 951, 310, 818, and 213. This is for the true fans of the funk, all the funkateers in the 805 and 714, keepin it alive!...and especially the 626 and 323. Enjoy, i'll be playing this on the way to the laker parade tomorrow, you should too ; ) Peace!

A few lesser known jams in here along with some of your favorites...well maybe they were your favorites when you were rockin Z.Cavariccis. Peace to all the new jack swing heads stlil reppin on NJS4E, especially in the NL where they still rep it to the fullest. Peace!
