 | Mandre Mandre 2 US MOTOWN LP - £12 I am reluctant to mention P-Funk as an influence in this guys music as he really stands on his own but there is certainly a nod to the PFunk sound but he has cranked up the spaced out element.

 | Martha High Martha High US SALSOUL LP - £10 Mint / unplayed / Promo stamp on back Long term backing singer for James Brown finally got a solo lp in 1979. As it's produced by JB it is a kind of unique Disco Funk sound. Nothing too fast & James' nod to the Disco era seems to be in the use of a few spacey effects & he still retains the funk on SHOWDOWN / WALLFLOWER / HE'S MY DING DONG MAN. But probably the best cut is the more Soulful tune OH THIS FEELING | |
