shake_GAPband_album_labelWe’re getting this started while we are on that GAP Band kick because we’re going to be on it for a minute.  Let’s take it back to their big break through record hitting the R&B charts in 1979 off their self titled album, check out Shake.  

When you need your daily Funk dose of heavy horn sections, perfectly timed-slight lag behind the beat-bass (also check out around 4:55 for that bass solo), and the Wilson brothers vocals, then this is your record.  No matter who you are, this is just feel good music right here.
