Heavy funk galore...and easily two of the best titles in the massive Super Funk series. These albums seem to go deeper than all the previous volumes, really digging down for some obscure tracks that push past the obvious funky 45 standards, to include some lost gems from rare sources in the southern scene. The set's awash in hard drums, fuzzy bass, tripped out guitar, and lots of rootsy deep soul vocals, stepping from track to track with a quality level that beats most other funky 45 collections on the market.
Truly a blistering batch of underground singles that serve up some of the roughest funk of their generation. We'll be honest in saying that we'd only heard a few of the tracks here before and our hats are off to BGP for taking this already-great series and making it go even deeper...far past familiar funk classics that usually get showcased on the label, and much more into the realm of the crate-digging underground, or the ebay-rarity stratosphere. A handful of cuts here are previously unreleased (never even issued on wax back in the day) and the rest are all pretty darn hard to find too, and all plenty darn great from a musical perspective.
Superfunk vol 4 - Rare & Classic Street Funk From The Vaults 1966 -- 1973 
Super Funk Vol 5 -- Super Funk Is Back -- Rare & Classic Funk 1968 to 1977
