The
cuts on Florida Funk are more than just a buttload of bangin’
party music. They’re cultural snapshots, perfectly sleazy
time capsules from the days of Superfly and polyester. Take “Na
Na” by the impossibly named septet Coke, a conga-driven ode
to the band’s namesake. Or the slimy, “Shaft”-style
wah-wah that kicks off “Butterfly Theme,” an early instrumental
by porno-funk king Blowfly; or even just the name of the label and
catalog number of the Delrays’ “Pure Funk” single:
Phart Records 0069. Ya just can’t make this stuff up.
If
Quentin Tarantino is in need of some tuneage for his next flick,
he’ll find a ton of it right here.
