<b>Fonzi Thornton - "I Work For A Living" (Nile Rodgers Un-Extended Edit)</b>


My life is Crazy... but if my life wasn't Crazy, it wouldn't be my life.

For the last few weeks I've been recording a new CHIC album, but what's Crazy is: most of the songs are made from unreleased demos and outtake recordings I cut with Bernard Edwards and Tony Thompson, who were my original bandmates. Both 'Nard and Tony (Dip), passed away many, many years ago.

The source materials range from demos for my 1st solo album, to songs I would have submitted to 'Nard for CHIC... but we got dropped from the label and the songs were never developed.

I Need Help - Bobby Byrd Cover Live

Ultra-rare jazz-funk/fusion album by Japanese drummer, Akira Ishikawa. Featuring percussion-heavy versions of ‘Let's Start’, ‘Bongo Rock’ and ‘Pick Up The Pieces’.

'Back To Rhythm’ was the final recording in Ishikawa’s African-influenced period. He cut this record with his band ‘Count Buffalos’, featuring Kiyoshi Sugimoto, Takeru Muraoka, Larry Sunaga and arranger Hiromasa Suzuki.

Includes excellent cover versions of The Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, BT Express, Stevie Wonder, Average White Band, Incredible Bongo Band and Fela Kuti.

Originally released in Japan in 1975 by Columbia, this is now extremely difficult to find in its original format, and very pricey indeed!

Brit-funk disco/boogie classic from Atmosfear. Official Mr Bongo replica reissue of the original Elite release, cut loud at 45rpm.

In 1982 Atmosfear hit their prime with the release of this underground classic, 'Xtra Special'. A gear switch from their jazz-funk origins, this boogie track featuring the sublime vocals of Beverley Skeete, is a prime example of an innovative band at their peak.
