a good place to start: I've grown up listening to T-Connection in my younger days. Their songs Spend the Night with Me, Girl Watching, Paradise, etc were very popular here back then. I never knew their early albums. Luckily this 2-1 album exist and I can hear their early works and I was astonished that it was very different than the songs I knew. I realized they have two era and this album represents their first era. It's a good place to start to know T-Connection. I hope their later albums will be released on CD.
Welcome Arrival on CD: Having first got into this band in 1977, I bought every album (vinyl in those days) - eight in all - up their final one 'Take it to The Limit'way back in 1984. They were on the TK label, and they combined soul, funk, and carribbean influences throughout their career to brilliant effect. Whatever happened to them? I think they originated from the Bahamas? 'Do What You Wanna Do' remain a dancefloor classic all around the world. Get this CD!
Funk With The T-Connection!: These guys plundered all the right stuff-Earth,Wind & Fire, Bar-Kays and George Duke's influences all found they're way into their sound.The debut is probably the most potent with "Funkennection"-a strong George Duke-ish number,the rhythmically grooving "Saturday Night","Funky Lady" and "Come Back For More".And yes-on "Love Supreme" (NOT the Coltrane song) T-Connection can deliver more then vapid slow jams-romantic ballads are in their reach;something alot of funk bands couldn't seem to fathom.GET FUNKED BY THE T-CONNECTION!!!!!!!!!!
