Product Details

Jimmy Castor came up in the same New York Latin soul scene that birthed some of the hardest-working musicians of the 1960s and 70s, and his range was genuinely remarkable, from doo-wop beginnings to the Afrobeat-influenced, horn-driven grooves that made tracks like "Troglodyte (Cave Man)" a defining moment in early hip-hop sampling history. His work with the Jimmy Castor Bunch laid rhythmic and lyrical groundwork that producers and MCs would mine for decades.

"What we're gonna do right here is go back!" Jimmy Castor really was the "everything man" of funk. A huge collection of quirky, ridiculous, extremely dance-able funk hits come together on this best-of record, highlighting a career high on humor, soul and swagger from Castor.
