Customer Reviews

A Funk Classic5
Back in the day, this album was highly sought after, and, being so rare, was exchanging hands for large sums of money. Why? For lovers of Funk, this is a complete album, which covers most of the bases. It's got its quiet storm moments( Holding You, Loving You, big song on the Rare Groove scene in the 90's), Since you've, been away so long ( One of my highlights of the exquisite album) Funk, ( Yabba Dabba Doo, and You ain't Hip, Deaf Hook-Up Connection), and socially aware ( You ain't hip, deals with drug addiction). Lastly, this CD isn't too long, doesn't have interludes, like most releases nowadays. But my mere words don't do it justice. Listen and enjoy.

Great music but...4
...Expansion obviously couldn't be bothered to track down a master for this album, or even use the Japanese P-Vine CD issue. Instead they used a vinyl copy...just what I want to hear, surface noise on a CD. Cheap and very underhand. Shame, as the album is 5 stars alone on musical merit.

Hearts Desire thanks to Mr Don Blackman5
Anyone who raved on the London rare groove scene of the late 80's and early 90's will know all about 'Hearts Desire' & 'Holding You' as they are two of the most sort after tracks to be played during that era. Don Blackmans mixture of soul, jazz & funk are spot on with speaker blowing basslines, funky keyboard riffs, jazzy solo's, soulful lyrics and strings are truly a joy to behold....Buy this album for those tracks alone and then find other gems on the CD
