    " SUN " Your favorite songs ?

    Any fans out there remember this group ? They released over six albums from about 1976 thru till about 83/84 , there Funk was solid and deep and they never got the recognition they deserve. What are your favorite tracks ?

    cheers

    I agree SUN are one of the most underrated funk bands, but they are great!!!

    My faves:

    "Radiation level" a real killer
    "Guiding light" a later production but with such a groove... such a groove.......

    Finally some recognition to Sun who I've mentioned on this forum many times before. My favorites are:

    Sun is here
    Dance, do whatcha wanna do
    Long drawn out thing
    I had a choice
    Radiation level
    Reaction, satisfaction (Jam y'all)
    Space Ranger
    Slamm dunk of funk

    among others. As previously stated a band who never really got there just due, I am happy to say I have the entire Sun catalogue.

    Easy,

    Sam "ALL JAM"

    I've got Radition Level, I think it has sort of a cheese factor towards the end of it, but a strong groove no less. Maybe I should check out some of they're other stuff.

    Hot Spot
    Jammin in Brazil
    We're So Hot
    Light of the Universe
    Force of Nature
    Radation level (espcially the intro)

    Sun weren't outrageously different but still very funky

    The only song I've heard from them so far is "Sun Is Here" and I LOVE it!!! Great piece of disco/funk with bass!!! I hope to hear their other stuff too sometime.
