Castor,Jimmy Bunch Definitive Collection CD

Three CD compilation featuring all of Jimmy Castor's R&B chart hits. This package is jammed packed full of Funk. With sleeve notes by MOJO and Record Collector journalist Charles Waring. Despite unashamedly injecting an infectious sense of fun and irreverence in his take on funk - as evidenced on early 70s hits 'Troglodyte (Cave Man)' and 'Bertha Butt Boogie' - Jimmy Castor was a serious musician who more than lived up to his nickname, "The Everything Man". He could sing as well as play the saxophone, piano, vibraphone, and assorted percussion instruments, and if that wasn't enough, he was also an accomplished bandleader, arranger and producer. This package features the Top Ten Pop and R&B Hit and probably The Jimmy Castor Bunch's most notable song 'Troglodyte (Cave Man)', an amusing story of a stone age man narrated by Castor over a searing funk groove, it was certainly a stylistic anomaly compared with the rest of the album. Other notable tracks on the package are 'The Bertha Butt Boogie', 'Potential', 'King Kong', 'Supersound', 'Bom Bom' and 'Space Age' 12" Disco Mix.
