Rating: - Solid later offering from one of the greatest names in funk
Even with the increased use of electro-funk techniques, this 1983 album by 70s funk masters Fatback (aka The Fatback Band) has much of the gritty, pounding grooves that the band had become well-known for up to that point. The best song in my opinion is the pumping, thumping masterpiece "Finger Lickin' Good." The more downtempo "Sunshine Lady" is also good.

From the relevant rap of the title song to the likeminded electro-funk grooves of "Double Love Affair","The Girl Is Fine",
"Finer Lickin' Good" and the metallic "Up Against The Wall"
Fatback seem to have fully acclimated to the early 80's musical

more muscle and (unlike before) they've actually written alot of
great SONGS too complete with catchy ... Read More

Rating: - GREAT SYNTH FUNK with attitude!
...Fatback, coming out of the 70's, was totally prepared to make this album.

The songs are quite funky, and the lyrics are even intelligent at times (although we funk lovers don't care too much about lyrics--it's all about the VIBE, THE GROOVE, and THE ABILITIY TO MAKE U MOVE)

The entire album was produced with moog synths, including the MINIMOOG & MEMORYMOOG, and an Oberheim DX drum macine...

Yes, very, very synthy---and this is a GOOD thing!
Synths are great...
