1	The Best of the Gap Band (1995) more music like this by The Gap Band A collection from the Mercury funk lineup that covers the hits from the first five Gap Band albums. Every major hit that they had is included here. What one might notice is that all of the major hits ("You Dropped a Bomb on Me," "Burn Rubber on Me," "Early in the Morning," and "I Don't Believe You Want to Get up and Dance") all sound surprisingly ... see all copies from $7.14! new only from $13.34!
2	Pure Funk (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Since Pure Disco was a success, Mercury decided to assemble a sequel, Pure Funk. Like its predecessor, Pure Funk is a terrific 20-track collection of funk classics, from Rick James"Super Freak" to Parliament's "Flashlight." A couple of songs are marginally funk -- it's hard to call the kitsch-fest "Kung Fu Fighting" or Earth, Wind & Fire's sultry ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $13.34!
3	Instant Party Disc: Regular Strength (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The idea behind Rhino's Instant Party Disc series is that any compilation bearing the label Instant Party Disc is guaranteed to turn the lamest gathering into a rip-roaring bash. Which is why there's nothing but party favorites here, regardless of style, genre or decade -- "Celebration," "We Are Family," "Tequila," "Rock This Town," "Mickey," ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $16.85!
4	Pure Disco [Polygram] (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Pure Disco contains 12" mixes and remixes of classic dance and disco songs from the late '70s, including "I Love the Nightlife," "I Will Survive," "Celebration," "That's the Way (I Like It)," "Funkytown," "YMCA," and "Dancing Queen." Though there are a few original versions of these singles on the disc, most of it is comprised of remixes, which ... see all copies from $5.72! new only from $13.34!
5	Pure Funk, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Like Pure Disco before it, Pure Funk was a success, so there was only one thing for Mercury to do -- release Pure Funk, Vol. 2. Since the Pure series is surprisingly enjoyable, the sequel was welcome and thankfully, it doesn't disappoint. Although some could argue that Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" isn't real funk, most of the album ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
6	Millennium Party: Funk (1998) more music like this by Various Artists After offering comprehensive overviews of funk with the multi-volume series In Yo' Face and Phat Trax, Rhino wisely distilled those two sets into one indispensable single disc, Millennium Party: Funk. Boasting 20 songs, all of which are indisputable classics, Millennium Party is the best single-disc sampler of '70s and early-'80s funk available. ... see all copies from $16.85! new only from $16.85!
7	Funky Stuff: The Best of Funk Essentials (1993) more music like this by Various Artists For those looking to find a crash course in "the funk" -- a quick introduction to the fusion of R&B, soul, jazz, blues, good old rock & roll, and all-out outrageousness that creates the ultimate good groove -- you can't do much better than the Funk Essentials compilations. Funky Stuff: The Best of Funk Essentials is the perfect portrait. With its ... see all copies from $5.75! new only from $5.84!
8	Gap Band IV (1982) more music like this by The Gap Band Gap Band IV featured a complete lineup of up-tempo, mid-tempo, and alluring ballads. The feature releases, in order, were "Early in the Morning," "You Dropped a Bomb on Me," and "Outstanding." The first two are energized numbers seasoned around horrific basslines and Charlie Wilson's dazzling vocals. Respectively, they peaked at number one and two ... see all copies from $4.82! new only from $4.82!
9	The Gap Band III (1980) more music like this by The Gap Band When Gap Band III came out in 1980, the Wilson Brothers were widely regarded as true heavyweights in the funk field. Many funk experts will tell you that creatively, they were right up there with the likes of Cameo, Rick James, the Isley Brothers, and the Bar-Kays in the early '80s. Over the years, The Gap Band III (which was the group's fifth ... see all copies from $6.96! new only from $8.44!
10	The Funk Box (2000) more music like this by Various Artists At four discs and 55 tracks, Hip-O's Funk Box seems to want to be the last word on funk, and while it's a pretty good set, it ends up more representative than definitive of its chosen genre. Virtually all of funk's most important artists are featured, but not always by their most significant singles -- sometimes the collection gets it right, and ... see all copies from $52.48! new only from $52.48!
11 view cover	Disco Nights, Vol. 2: The Best of Disco Funk (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Featuring a dozen of the best bubblegum hits from the late '70s, this compilation makes for nice lightweight listening. Some songs, such as Parliament's dancefloor classic "Flashlight," still sound as good now as they did the first time around. Others, such as "Shake Your Groove Thing" by Peaches & Herb, make perfect background noise at keg ... see all copies from $4.75! new only from $6.19!
12 view cover	Funk Classics: The 80's (1995) more music like this by Various Artists By the early '80s, R&B acts had to embrace more polished productions and synth-based grooves or face extinction. Without looking too hard for rare gems, Funk Classics: The 80's offers 12 of the better-known tracks from 1980-1988. What's here is really no big surprise: Rick James' "Super Freak," George Clinton's "Atomic Dog," and the Gap Band's ... see all copies from $5.25! new only from $6.19!

18 view cover	Only Dance: 1980-1984 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists It's Only Dance 1980-1984 follows the pattern of JCI's It's Only series, offering a seemingly random collection of 20 hits from a given genre or style for a period of five years.These songs weren't necessarily the biggest hits of these five years, although there are a number of classics and smashes here. It may be hard to deduce exactly why these ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $11.23!
19 view cover	Jukebox Hits of the '80s [Collectables] (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Collectables' Jukebox Hits of the '80s is an attractive package for consumers who want the biggest hits of the era. All 70 songs spread out over these five discs are recognizable. Unlike other similar sets, these songs are not re-recordings; these are the original hit versions. More than likely the casual listener will only need one track from ... see all copies from $29.29! new only from $42.27!
20 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of The Gap Band (2000) more music like this by The Gap Band Except for a few minor differences -- a couple of different track selections, two fewer songs -- 20th Century Masters largely duplicates The Best of the Gap Band, which means that it isn't a bad compilation at all, just a largely unnecessary one. It's mostly a toss-up as to which is better, although The Best of the Gap Band may have a slight edge ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
21	Old School Next Friday (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A fun collection of soul and dance hits, Old School Next Friday is the ultimate party record. Songs like "You Drop a Bomb on Me" and "You Sexy Thing" make this compilation bright and fun, and tunes like the Ohio Players' "Funky Worm" make it unique. David Bowie's "Fame" seems like an odd addition to the mix, but overall this collection hangs ... see all copies from $14.83! new only from $14.83!
22	Testimony (1994) more music like this by The Gap Band This album is far from the Gap Band's chart-busting albums of the '70s and '80s. The title track is an inspirational ballad. The two most notable numbers are dance-oriented: "Come Into My Life" and "I Can Make You Dance." The former is mid-tempo and the latter is aggressively uptempo. While Charlie Wilson's vocals are still in tact, the material ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
23 view cover	Original Artist Hit List (2003) more music like this by The Gap Band see all copies from $5.00! new only from $5.00!
24 view cover	Bring on Da Funk, Vol. 3 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This contains live versions of songs by such funk heavyweights as Cameo and Lakeside. If you don't like live sets, this one won't change your opinion, but if you enjoy hearing some of your favorites songs performed in concert, you'll find pleasure here. George Clinton's "Bop Gun," the Ohio Players' "Sweet Sticky Thang," and Cameo's "Keep It Hot" ... see all copies from $2.42! new only from $2.42!
25 view cover	Funk Classics: The 70's, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists A strong collection of '70s funk jams that will liven any party. The track lengths are inconsistent: Funkadelic's "Not Just Knee Deep" (15:08) escaped the chopping block, but others, like Rick James' "You and I," are edited radio versions. Selections include Instant Funk's "I Got My Mind Made Up," B. T. Express' "Do It Til You're Satisfied," and ... see all copies from $6.19! new only from $6.19!
