Reviews
Is it possible that these songs could've been recorded at the same time with "Organized Con Funk Shun"? That LP was on Pickwick in 1978 and it includes early recordings.
1980 release, now 2020 still no CD re-issue ?? will we ever see the day
LP released in 1980 consisting of tunes recorded in 1972/73.- Edited 11 years ago"Con-Funk-Shun - The Essence of Dignity..." a direct quote from Ted Sturges (the first producer of Con-Funk-Shun for 3 years at Audio Dimensions Studios in Memphis, Tennessee). I was privileged to meet both Ted and Con-Funk-Shun in 1972 just prior to Crankshaft Productions, Inc. first sessions with Con-Funk-Shun. There is a special magic about these recordings, unique only to Memphis. For this truly "Memphis Music" of Con-Funk-Shun will soon be heard around the world. From the beginning Ted and Con-Funk-Shun were "Perfectionists"-literally hundreds of hours went into the production of this music...for you the listener. Con-Funk-Shun has now attained Superstar Status as both Ted and I knew they would. This album is dedicated to Memphis, Tennessee and its beautiful people. (Michael Stewart)
