{"title":"Lipps, Inc.","description":"\u003cp\u003eLipps, Inc. was an American disco and funk band notable for their 1980 hit single \"Funky Town\". The group was formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1979 by multi-instrumentalist Steven Greenberg who wrote, produced, and played all the music for the band. Their music was distinguished by the use of synthesizers and the unique vocal style of Cynthia Johnson, who provided the powerful, soul-infused vocals for \"Funky Town\". Despite their brief lifespan, Lipps, Inc. played a significant role in the late-disco period and their signature song has been widely covered and sampled in the pop music industry.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"funkytown-all-night-dancing-2","title":"Funkytown\/ All Night Dancing","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 4-minute 45 version is still 4 minutes shorter than the bloated 7:50 album cut!
