SLIPSTREAM RECORDS

 

  Independent UK Music Label specializing in retro re-issues

Here it is at last and sorry for the wait…

 

Slipstream Records debut release.

First released in May 1970 Country Funk’s debut was a confident and heady mix of psych, blues rock and country rock. Despite achieving little success in their day, 40 years on the “Funkers” are now highly regarded, finally achieving the credit that was originally denied them.

 

The new reference opus ENDLESS TRIP recently commented:

 

“These are strong, individualistic songs with some interesting twists (check out the protracted ending to “Really My Friend”). The album is carefully arranged, played and sung, but still sounds nicely loose and flowing. They may not be the most versatile band you’ll ever hear, but what they did they did well, and they deserve a wider hearing.”

 

Country Funk’s debut has been newly packaged with extensive liner notes, unpublished photos and 4 unreleased bonus tracks.
