My point exactly...thats why we need to have a definitive term. So I suggest FONK to describe these tunes "playing poor quality funk records that should never see the light of day."

True Phil!

Oh yes...its definitely a teaser. .

Heres an example: Listed as Funk/Soul.....nuh! This is FONK!

Is it just me or do you also get frustrated when trawling through online lists or ebay sales to listen to clips that are often described as Crossover soul or Funk/soul or gospel/funk when in reality they should file under dire bin ends! Also, I have noticed that what me and Karl Heard used to call 'dirty funk edged soul' is now being confused with what I would call FONK. By this i mean the sort of generic funk or FONK thats better played at student nights where they are drunk and want to wobble about a bit. Is the desperate desire to unearth new tunes leading to generic FONK infiltrating many nights?
