This is absolutely my favorite Funkadelic album. Of course there is Maggot Brain which is a beautiful album but this album is a pure funk jam.

Please enjoy this funk masterpiece and remember "In Funk We Trust".

The Stooges - The Stooges (1969)

I have just recently gotten into the Stooges and I got their albums from blogs (this one I probably got from Digital Meltd0wn or Suburban Terror). Anyways what a great album this is, and I would never guess this was from 1969 (well except for We Will Fall) .I would have placed it with the punk music they influenced. The whole album is superb from start to finish.

Lineup:
Iggy Pop - vocals
Dave Alexander - bass
Ron Asheton - guitar, vocals
Scott Asheton - drums
John Cale - viola

Favorite tracks: I Wanna Be Your Dog, 1969

Tracklist:
1. 1969
2. I Wanna Be Your Dog
3. We Will Fall
4. No Fun
5. Real Cool Time
6. Ann
7. Not Right
8. Little Doll

White Zombie - Gods on Voodoo Moon (1985)

This is White Zombie's very first EP all the way from 1985. This was from when they were more of a noise rock band than the groove metal that they were famous for. Rob Straker's (Zombie) vocals are harsh and erratic the music is fast and frantic which makes a interesting mix.

Check it out, it is very interesting stuff. But like I said it is much different from the sound they got famous from.

Lineup:
Rob Straker - Vocals
Sean Yseult - Bass
Ena Kostabi - Guitar
Peter Landau - Drums

Tracklist:
1. King of Souls
2. Gentleman Junkie
3. Tales From the Scarecrow Man
4. Cat's Eye Resurrection
5. Black Friday
6. Dead or Alive
