Instant Funk started life as Bunny Sigler’s backup band, who recommended them to Philadelphia International; they recorded one album for the label ‘Get Down With The Philly Jump’, which is a rarity on CD. The band then made a quick but smart move to Salsoul Records where they instantly delivered their #1 R&B Single and Anthem ‘I Got My Mind Made Up (You Can Get It Girl)’ which topped the chart for three weeks. If you missed out on Instant Funk the first time around and loved the music from that era, then this package is for you; 65 funk-fuelled dance tracks, that bring the disco era of the late 70s and early 80s vividly back to life.
