Con Funk Shun - Electric Lady 12" Version (1985)

[mario63chevy]

this was the jam back in da day at the rink in CEDARTOWN ,GA.(REST IN PEACE BIG D-ANTHONY BURGE) FROM MARIO ROWLAND.

[SKOTP69]

YES!

[tripwires2]

con funk shun rocks

[optikCB]

Always a guaranteed floor burner! I got a nice clean OG 12" of the single for sale if anyone is interested... hit me up!

[emmel07]

San Diego, CA - Rollerskate Land 1986, this song brings those days back. They really need to bump this during cosmic bowling.

[Juniversal]

Funny you can hear the hip-hop influence in the instrumental and in the vocal delivery.

[MeValeMadre209]

Cruisin McHenry Avenue Modesto California!!!!!!!!!!

[fredblassie123]

Nice Cameo Rip Off.....

[dienglee]

@fredblassie123 I have to agree with you on this one.

[DeemonKilla]

@fredblassie123 Word Up, Cameo, Confunkshun, & The Barkays use to bite off each others cuts all day long back in the day. If Cameo was getting big sales on a hit, The Barkays would come out a month later with a hit song that would sound just like Cameo's hit i.e. Confunkshun. These 3 groups were all pretty much on the same page. Although I gotta give it to Confunkshun for the slow jams. Cameo 2nd, Barkays were best for the Dance jams along with Cameo. DAMN I'M OLD......

[GerardFreeman]

@DeemonKilla those 3 groups got most their sound from Earth Wind & Fire and Ohio Players

[211bill]

@fredblassie123 All of the great funk groups of the 70's and 80's kind of influenced each other.

[jwjones967]

One dislike of this jam????!!! Who's the wet behind the ear, still got pablum on his breath IDIOT?

[2black2day]

@jwjones967 - Tell 'em. Excellent assessment.

[XXXXLOWRIDERXXXX]

THAT IS SHEILA  E...TRUE FACT

[DoK1575]

DoK1575-------The lyrics to this jam is so clever + the beat is so funky which equals tight to def-holla!

[freestyle5504]

this is rap at it's best, see there was a lot of groups that rap in their songs this is just an example

[jalag]

The real question is... Who is the hotness on the cover?

[afrocarib3]

@jalag She look like Sheila E but i doubt it'sher.

[Apokalypez]

G-Dam! I can't stop listening 2 this! Re-mix!

[Apokalypez]

I've been searching for this song for about 20 years! And now the lyrics have come to life!

[lamonteg1967]
