Vinyl Wednesday: The Brides Of Funkenstein - Funk Or Walk
Wikipedia tells us that The Brides Of Funkenstein were backing vocalists for Sly Stone before they joined the P-Funk Collective in the mid 70's. The "Brides" consisted of Lynn Mabry and Dawn Silva, later Sheila Horne and Jeanette McGruder replaced Lynn Mabry. This is the first of their albums, released in 1978. I am especially proud of the fact that 2 musicians of this amazing album play on my Saxify: Michael Hampton (guitar) and Rodney "Skeet" Curtis (bass). Check out the whole album on Youtube:

This took place in Amsterdam's Skyybar, Floor17 and The Harbourclub Zuid... bit by bit, other places like Momo and W Amsterdam followed, leading to club bookings as a dj and festival bookings with Venus Tunes Live in the Netherlands and abroad. All of this in addition to my normal life as a musician. I love dj'ing as it adds another facet to my musicianship.Listen to all editions of the Venus Tunes Sessions where you like; choose your platform: Venus Tunes Sessions is a monthly guest mix by Susanne Alt on Freak31, aired every first Sunday of the month at 1900h.
