We couldn't possibly squeeze more sleaze on a record, and Sir Bentley's 1979 disco masterpiece is sure to please. Just listen to those lyrics "you feel your nasty boogie flow?" Includes edit by Disco Tom Noble, who has spent recent years researching and promoting what he calls “raw boogie”.
“…consisting of self released and usually self produced boogie joints made by local artists from all around the world. Most of the popular music from the post disco era (1982 - 1989) is notorious for having skin tight session players and uber slick production. Bands such as Slave, The Whispers, Evelyn Champagne King, etc fall into this category."
In stark contrast to the sound of the major label's elite comes the unsigned & under paid suitors seeking their claims to the boogie throne. Writing, recording, and releasing their own funk upon the world, the unisigned artists would often record in home or homie studios, with little to no budget. Most of the raw boogie tunes I've found were completely ignored and/or shunned by the music industry, creating a vast underground of obscure and dope funk only to be appreciated by future generations.” |
