Press Reviews "Allyagottadoisdomydance" is the lead off track of D-Funk and the Phatfunk Cliques' 7 song CDPandemic Love. I must have played this track about7 times before I moved on to the next song on the disc. "It's a funky thang with a funky swang" is the reprise that is carried along a stream of steady funk and seems to be the mantra of the Phatfunk clique. DFunk and the Phatfunk Clique take all of the classic aspects of basic funk grooves and add piano and string arrangements to create a jazz/funk vibe. Pandemic Love is a sound track for coolin' out and just bobbing your head in the afternoon.Chad Weis CD Title: Pandemic Love Year: 1999 Record Label: Musically INKLIGNed Records Style: Soul / Funk Jazz Musicians: Darrell DFunk Looney, Phat Vox, Keyboards, and violin.
