Funk Junction [2022] - What Will I Be / Let's Try It Again [Epsilon #EPS013]


After a year of negotiations Yann Vatiste has licensed two tracks by Funk Junction for the latest release on Epsilon. The previously released, but extremely rare, "Let's Try It Again" along with an unreleased funky dancer "What Will I Be".

"Let's Try It Again" is an ultra obscure sweet soul song released on Fos-Glo in 1980 by a San Francisco group called Function written by group member James Green. Yann managed to track James down who directed him to the group's manager and label owner Warren Foster.

Foster owned Fos-Glo with Ron Bell who was a member of Masterplan ((The Girl In) Clinton Park) aka The Windjammers (Poor Sad Child) aka The Emotions. Foster also worked with Little Stanley (Lippitt), Bill Griffith, Butch Tavares & Tavares Brothers, Con Funk Shun and Lenny Williams.

Epsilon plans to release some more tracks licensed from Foster in the coming months.

Available on 7" vinyl from Epsilon.
