Picking up where Funky Stuff left off, the next installment in the Funk
Essentials series, 1994's Funk Funk: The Best of Funk Essentials, Vol. 2,
pumps up the energy and pulls out every stop before finding a few more to
grab on this absolutely outstanding compilation that showcases this genre's
finest. While the songs on Funk Funk won't be surprising to aficionados,
what will be pleasing is the inclusion of often hard-to-find 12" versions
of several favorites ù Parliament's "Aquaboogie," Kool & the Gang's
slightly mellower "Get Down on It," and the Gap Band's infectious,
bass-looped "You Dropped a Bomb on Me" are club classics, well worth
hearing in all their extended glory. More importantly, though, is the
appearance of the 12" version of Orange Crush's "Action." Recorded by
Kurtis Blow's own band.
