Early this year I've bought an old cheap 4X CD burner from my Uncle and have been doing my own funk and disco compilations. Anyhow I thought why not tell you's what I've put on my disco and funk compilations. I'll start with funk.

Yeah I know I've thrown in the ones I repeatedly mention in these forums as they are top favourites of mine but there are a number of others which I haven't mention. There are some great songs I haven't put into my compilations such as "This Is It" by Betty Davis, "Movin'" by Brass Construction etc.. because I already have them on CD in the Mastercuts "Classic Funk" compilations.
Anyhow most of the songs I've downloaded through Audio Galaxy but some come off my records.
Next up I'm going to list my 26 disco compilations called "Super Rare Disco Grooves".
Australia mate! The land of many great funkateers!
