Title: great jams mixed with weaker tunes
Review: The Fatback Band tend to get lost in the R&B/Funk music shuffle, but they were a very tight band and released a lot of mighty fine music. It wasn't all geared to the dance floor, but that's definitely the inspiration for many tracks on here. If you enjoyed any of the Fatback Band's music over the years --- and we're talking mostly early 1970s to early 80s --- or like 70s soul/funk/dance music, you'll find a lot to like on this generous 2-CD collection. Some great instrumental jams and funky vocal tunes (both male and female vocalist) are included, but there are also a few weaker, repititious dance tunes that haven't stood the test of time very well. Thankfully, the really good stuff far outweighs the few clunkers, so I think this set is well worth the money. You get so many more songs than what the single disc "Best of" contains.
