A few years back as I was perusing a small record store in Eugene, Oregon, I came across an amazing compilation that still does not get old. An anthro-musicologist from San Francisco embarked on an amazing journey that led him to put out two volumes of previously unreleased funk music from various parts of the Bay Area. Most of the tracks were recorded in the heyday of the Black Panthers in Oakland in the '60's in clubs and dancehalls from San Francisco to Richmond and most of the bands were merely house bands who never put out records of their own. Here are the full track listings of both albums, keep the funk alive!
