#1: Funky music quest (song IDs)

Posted on 2006-07-16 18:01:54 by ignored_spam_address

I recorded the tracks below from radio on tape in the late 70's/early 80's.
However, I have little data about them. Can you tell me the artist or group
who did these tracks? By clicking on a sample link, you can listen to a 60
sec MP3 or streaming WMA sample. The RealMedia (RM) files are more complete
tracks.

Love to hear from you!!
