About this album

Groove The Funk is a vibrant 1975 statement that fuses Afrobeat drive, hard funk and psychedelic colour into a distinctly West African sound. Recorded by Aktion, the album leans on tight rhythmic interplay, chunky basslines and call-and-response energy, with the title track setting the tone for a set that moves between dancefloor pressure and song-led soulfulness. Its mix of rock, funk and folk-rooted elements gives the record an expansive feel, while the heavier grooves and inventive arrangements make it stand out as one of the more adventurous Afro-funk releases of its era. It remains a striking example of the genre’s cross-cultural reach.
