Tonight’s show is a celebration of ‘pure originals’: that means no remixes or edits – just what it says on the funk and soul tin. We’ll be taking you through the decades from the golden era of black American music through to modern-day dancefloor fillers.
The Trunk of Funk is 30 minutes of back-to-back floorfillers for you to listen to wherever you are and whenever you like! This Trunk of Funk brings you nothing but the purest funk and soul sounds around. No remixes or edits – just the originals in all their groovy glory.
