Cosmic Chronic US Vinilo y CD

Review: The PPU-affiliated Cosmic Chronic label rolls out some more of that deep cover boogie funk business from the hitherto unknown Junior Williams. Information is scant on whether this is a dusted down archive find (highly likely) or a modern, faithful reboot of the 80s Miami sound, but what does it matter when the funk is this real? "Cash Maniac" is a slow jam with that sweet Moog b-line and plenty of reverb on the backing vocals to send you spinning into the stratosphere. "Pennywise" on the flip will smack you up sharp after that with some hi-octane slapping n' popping funk that would give Rick James the heebie jeebies.
