      Another discogs "on fire" LP, not rare just in demand, people who pay more of 40 eur for it didn't bough nowhere from the net, really disgusted by internet, commercial releases cost too much money.. :/
      How to be in 2022 a Funk amateur and buy all these classic record?

        "Give It Up" is The Precious Gem here! Grab one before prices level up!

          a must have for every funk/disco lover! go check "Rhyze to the Top" and you'll get the vibe

            Rhyze's 1981 LP "To The Top" features some great horn arrangements as well as some really great dance beats, like on the track "Tonight's Gonna Be My Night". Some great uptempo recordings like "Rhyze To The Top" followed up by nice smooth grooves like "Give It Up" and "Having Fun" this release is a real toe-tapper. It's hard to understand why Rhyze never really became a household name. Nice vocals and nice music included with this recording.
