Chas Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) You already have the music if you have : The reissue cover looks like this : Edited October 29, 2008 by Chas Quote
Bright Moments Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Posted October 29, 2008 yes i do - but as a completist i am compelled to search out and obtain the original! it's a disease! thanks for the reply chas! Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 Just bought this date tonight (used, $8), and I'm hearing it for the very first time as I'm typing this. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 "Kirk's work" is the original. "Funk underneath" was the reissue title. MG Quote
Niko Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 anyone else have this issue that the first second or so is missing and that afterwards all tunes begin a second before the "number mark" on the cd... silly, but i am really thinking about getting another version, too... Quote
mikeweil Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 anyone else have this issue that the first second or so is missing and that afterwards all tunes begin a second before the "number mark" on the cd ... Yes - I got the new RVG CD for the same reason! Quote

six string Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 I have the Kirk's Works on lp and I almost bought The Funk Underneath on lp a few months ago until I read the cover info. Funny how reading a little can help you prevent a double purchase. One of the few holes I have in my RRK collection is the one he did with Benny Golson on Mercury. Does anyone know where I can find that one? Quote
mikeweil Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 That was part of the Mercury Kirk box - you don't have that one? You should, as there are several alternates not issued on LP. Quote

I didn't buy the box because I had all of the albums on lp except for that one. Someone's sorted me out though. I knew it would be a good album. How could it not with Golson AND RRK together, not to mention the stellar group playing with them? Quote
