Essential 13 Jan 2008
By Furthur
Format:Audio CD
This was so in advance of its times. Listening to this in 2008 and thinking most of those tunes were recorded in the early 80s makes you rethink your priorities.

You clearly can hear where bands like David Byrne's Talking Heads came from, except this band are simply better because less limited to simple pop songs format. Worth alone for their use of percussions and many influences.

The liner notes are very complete and informative and as usual Soul Jazz come up trumps on yet another perfect offering. Essential listening to anyone into Sun Ra via Fela and Artur Russell.

Party time!! 5 Aug 2005
By Michael B. Deviney - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
I first listened to this CD in a small record store in Toronto. The only reason I didn't buy it is because I was broke (I ordered from this site and got a better price). This is a GREAT album. Konk comes with great percussions ala Fela Kuti and infectious grooves. Simple bass lines, deep and true, mixed with loopy beats. Konk has a very clean sound with 80's punk vocals (but not too punky or screamy). I love throwing this in at parties becuase it pleases my Electronic, Classic Rock, Funk, and Reggea freinds. Don't hesitate, buy this album.
