Skull Snaps-1974 legendary hard funk soul album-NEW LP

Skull  Snaps  -- Skull  Snaps  (reissue) . . .

NEW  LP

REISSUE

A legendary funk album that's been in demand for years -- now out on reissue! The Skull Snaps only ever cut this one album during the early 70s -- and it's a masterful blend of hard funk, sweet soul, and strident group grooving.

The range of tracks is excellent -- and highlights include the monster breakbeat track "It's A New Day" (which virtually became the blueprint for hip hop at the end of the 90s!), the uptempo groover "Trespassing", and the righteous funky soul cut "I'm Your Pimp"! Other tracks include "My Hang Up Is You" and "All Of A Sudden". (Reissued with the original gatefold cover, too!)
