Funky Fever was the original A side of this great single, but "Slip Away" became the bigger hit and is now one of Carter's signature tunes. Note: This beautiful copy comes with a vintage Atlantic Records factory sleeve. It has very nearly Mint-looking labels and vinyl. Audio on "Funky Fever" sounds as good as the vinyl looks, but the audio on "Slip Away" has persistent light surface noise, separately grading a strong EX.
