Tuff City/Funky Delicacies continues its reissue of the complete contents of Trouble Funk’s vaults, (which began with “E-Flat Boogie” {DEL LP/CD 0030}), Tuff City/Funky Delicacies is now proud to announce the release of “Funkin’ The Classics,” a collection of previously unreleased recordings from their early 80s prime. Trouble Funk first achieved popularity in the late 70s and is often credited as the missing link between funk and hip-hop. The group became quite popular with their groove-oriented, swinging, funk instrumental driven, D.C-specific laid back yet hard charging brand of funk called "go-go" and remained popular through two generations. First with their funk-loving peers for whom they churned out hit after local hit through the late 80s and next with the hip hop generation, who from Boogie Down Productions to Will Smith, sampled Trouble Funk to bolster their hit making potential. “Funkin’ The Classics” reveals Trouble Funk at its very best. It is a collection of prime material form the group’s heyday in the early 80s. It features a cover of Kool & The Gang’s “Funky Stuff,” a funky send-up of the Charlie Daniel’s Band classic “The Devil Went Down To Georgia” (reworked as “The Devil Went Down To D.C.”) and the Average White Band’s “Cut The Cake.”
