This terrific Funk number was an early offering and the prelude to their first top 10 pop hit, 'Jungle Boogie,' on their next outing. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.) Though the vinyl looks Near Mint, the audio has a touch of underlying surface noise most evident in the first 20 seconds or so, making the audio grade EX+.
