If I had *my* way, Supergroove would release a retrospective of their edgier funk metal. Capturing the vibe I was hoping for in their next album, after Tractor was released.

Nominated to choose the tracks, here's my picks.

An industrial remix of Here Comes the Supergroove by Avotor, to open.

Traction;

* You Freak Me

* Scorpio Girls

* Bugs & Critters

Tractor;

* Scone Farm

* Where the Sun Don't Shine

B-sides of singles;

* Five Word Headline

* Sex Police

(3/?)

#Listening to Crippled by Supergroove;

"These days go on
The nights are empty now you're gone
And I can see
You carry on unerringly

I hope that you don't turn into what you used to hate"

This was one of the new tracks on the epic 1994 EP Tractor. Released as a companion to the shortened radio version of You Freak Me, which was on heavy rotate on commercial music radio the same year.

#Listening to the 2023 remaster of Cult of Personality by Living Color;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mssfWohiig

Originally released on Vivid in 1998, I can't think of a song more apt for the times;

"I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your TV
Oh, I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you, still you love me
I tell you one and one makes three
Oh, I'm the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
Oh, I'm the cult of personality"

#Listening to Spanish Goat Dancer by kiwi funk metal band Head Like a Hole, a single from the Flik Y'Self off Y'Self album released in 1994;

This whole album, like all of their records really, is big, dumb, noisy fun. HLAH played amazing live sets in the 90s, and their records do a great job of capturing that frenetic live energy.

To me, if you're going to talk about funk, you have to go back to George Clinton and Bernie Worrell. Those guys are the giants. I've played with Bernie, and it was unreal. He's the master.
