It’s funky Friday! Cymande released their first 3 funk albums between 1972-74. They weren’t popular enough to last into the ’70s but their music was sampled decades later and they are now more popular than ever. Their mix of Afrobeat, funk, and soul music may have been ahead of its time in the early ’70s, but those albums now sound as fresh as ever. After reforming in 2010, they released their fourth album in 2014 and they have now followed that up with their new release Renascence. Since it is funky Friday, I selected the funk instrumental “Sweeden” as today’s song selection. The rest of the album is a mix of Afrobeat influenced soul, retro soul, and funk.
