Description:
Two early Con Funk Shun albums from 1976 & 1977 coupled together, featuring the singles "Sho Feels Good to Me", the #1 hit "Ffun" & the bands theme song "Confunkshunize Ya", plus the rare 12- version of "Ffun" included as a bonus track.
"Con Funk Shun/Secrets (Expanded 2 On 1)" on CD brings together two classic late-70s/early-80s funk and R&B albums from the legendary band Con Funk Shun in one expanded edition. This release showcases the group at their creative and commercial peak, combining tight, horn-driven funk grooves with silky, slow-burn ballads and sophisticated arrangements. Expect a blend of dancefloor-ready tracks, laid-back mid-tempo songs and romantic slow jams that highlight the group's strong vocal harmonies and polished musicianship. As an expanded 2-on-1 edition, this CD typically includes both full original albums plus selected bonus material such as single edits or rare tracks (when available), offering a deep, album-oriented listening experience for collectors and new fans alike.
Con Funk Shun are one of the key names in classic funk and soul, particularly known for their smooth transition between hard-hitting funk and soulful quiet-storm ballads. Active mainly throughout the 1970s and 1980s, they built a loyal following with their rich horn sections, melodic songwriting and tight live performances. The band scored major R&B hits and became a staple of the era's funk scene, contributing to the sound that would influence later contemporary R&B and smooth funk productions. Their catalogue is still revered by DJs, soul aficionados and collectors of classic black music.
The CD is released by Cherry Red, a UK-based reissue specialist known for carefully curated catalogue editions, often focusing on soul, funk, pop, rock and cult genres. Cherry Red is respected among collectors for detailed remastering work, well-researched liner notes and thoughtful packaging that preserves the character of the original releases while making them available to a new audience. With "Con Funk Shun/Secrets (Expanded 2 On 1)", Cherry Red once again highlights an important chapter of funk and R&B history in a high-quality, collector-friendly format.
