Propositions: The Complete Collection
This nine-member group from Detroit is widely considered one of the funkiest bands of all time. This album compiles the original versions remastered, all the collectible 7-inches, and several unreleased tracks. The Propositions were influenced by Funkadelic, Earth Wind & Fire, Sly Stone, and local predecessors, The Fabulous Counts. They created their own style by taking a dedicated instrumental direction and abandoning vocalization. The result is a tasty combo of funky drums, wah-wah guitar, and a full horn section.
