Wikipedia????

I'll take the word of a "music" website over that of a website where people can write in their own takes.

Allmusic.com is the most comprehensive music site on the web. You oughtta try it sometime.

I wasn't impressed.

Besides, I've seen dozens of 'comprehensive music sites' come and go...allmusic isn't really allthat imho...they've got an underwhelming amount of hotlinks, they don't even go into detail about the albums or singles or anything and... if the best thing you came away with ... was a buncha Cameo??

Hahaha..and they think that's funk.


Besides, I have far better sources of new and old music than some website everyone's already heard of.
At least I think so....

EDIT:
Check it out:
This is all I could find that they had on YT...


Tip of the iceberg my man....tip of the ice berg....floating...off..into the sunset....... on a glacial mass of funk...

Oh well....you can lead a horse to water......^


YouTube - Keep it hot--Cameo




YouTube - CAMEO - On The One

GARBAGE DUMP FUNK



By the way, those two cuts you posted are nice! But they are "soul"/R&B at best. Heck...one of them is called "SOUL" Makossa LOL! The other sounds sounds like very early EWF before their Head to the Sky album. Slightly jazz fusion laced with tribal rhythms.....smooth.....I like.
