Jackie Johnson's Back Beaters

Digging into Trinidad and Tobago's '70s funk history, Jackie Johnson's Back Beaters is on everyone's list. The instrumental ''Tobago Beat'' is a futurist electro-funk number and is likely to become a favourite for DJs spinning at b-boy battles. The b-side is not for everyone, but those who are actually into lo-fi recorded funk (that's what we consider as deep-funk) will surely enjoy it. All in all a monstrous 2-sider which safes you a lot of money and puts a smile on your face.
