The Parkdale Funk Show is proud to present the Funkypea Soup Mix by Chris Allwaysdiggin’! It’s a very hardy and tasty mix that I’m sure everyone will enjoy. Chris is out of London UK and is a hands on digger with dusty fingertips. Pull out your can opener and bust out some funky pea soup!

Here are a few words from Chris Allwaysdiggin’…

“Big up to Double K first and foremost for featuring “THE FUNKYPEA SOUP” mix on Parkdale Funk.

The Ingredients: A selection of 45s, some old, some new, funk and then some. Kicking off with some funky vegetables from The Vibrations, a recession fueled funky tale of a Harlem food shortage. Then to the O.G. Lyrics of John McCain every ounce the old skool. “PIMP” by the Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, which is the source for the 50 Cent track.

Add spice with some reggae/rocksteady tunes from Tommy McCook, Bill Campbell and a reggae/funk crossover from Buster Pearson’s killer instro.

Add a dash of momma’s gravy “Yum-Yum” followed by the southern funk of Benny Gordon. At this point we ask, is it funky enough? Or do you want some more? There’s some sister funk from Pamela Cole and the Jive Turkeys with B.A.

From the hip-hop chef Pete Rock, who immortalized the horn (the creator) from King Curtis’ “Instant Groove”

Add four more funk 45s by Freddy King, Mr. Percolator, The Soul Avengers, and the Mighty Groove Makers. There’s also a fine cover of the Boogaloo Joe Jones cut “Brown Bag”, done with a guitar that’s every bit as quick and tight as the original!

Hope you enjoy the taste and thanx for listening!

Peace

Chris Allwaysdiggin”
