The Funky 16 Corners
Stones Throw Records presents a glimpse into the lives and music of 16 unsung heroes of the late 60s and early 70s' funk
revolution from each corner of the United States. These are musicians that strove to achieve the success of The Meters
and James Brown, musicians that played their instruments with a gut-wrenching power unheard in modern music, musicians
that testified on wax and have resurfaced some thirty years after disappearing from the music scene. The intensity of
their recordings has not lost one ounce of soul with the time passed. Now, finally, the meticulously researched The
Funky 16 Corners stands as an historical document to this era in American music.
