Details:
FunkThis! returns with a slightly modified line up and another amazing CD. Paying homage to some of their favorite groups, this CD is at times funky, jazzy, rockin'' and even holy rollin''. Flavors range from classic R&B to FM rock to gospel on this inspired sophomore effort.

Diggin'' is another celebration as Funk This evokes the magic of a few musical inspirations. "We were thinking about some of the records and rhythm sections we admired when we started putting this CD together. Many of these records featured the core of the groups Stuff or Toto. Earth, Wind & Fire, Rufus (featuring Chaka Khan), and the Average White Band were two more incredible rhythm sections that produced many exciting records we loved from the 70s. Add to this equal parts Grover Washington and Eddie Harris coming from Fabi''s sax work, and you have an idea of what we were able to achieve here," says co-founder Chris Clermont. "We just said to ourselves, let''s try to do a CD we would dig as if we had nothing to do with it!"

Personnel has changed a bit this time around with the exit of Brian Ogawa and Pohl Reimann as full-time participants in the group. Guests include Justin Reinhardt, Massimiliano Coclite, and Michael Basich (keyboards); Alex Acuña, Ricardo Wilkins, and Joel Alpers (percussion); Jimmy Haslip, Marc Ebermann, and Brian Ogawa (bass); Eric Tewalt (saxophones and flute); and Sarah Taylor (lead vocals). Otherwise, Chris Clermont (vocals/ guitars), Henrik EngQvist (drums), and Fabrizio Mandolini (saxophones) return on most tracks.

Do yourself a favor: Cop this CD and dig!!!
