Episode Notes

What is it that we do here at InObscuria? Besides eating pop-tarts, we exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. In this episode, we take a listen to all 3, as we move n’ groove our way through funk-infused rock n’ roll. This genre has a special meaning to the hosts, as they themselves have dabbled in this funkdafied landscape throughout their musical journeys.

Songs this week include:

Roachford – “Give It Up” from Roachford(1988)
Dan Reed Network – “Baby Don’t Fade” from Dan Reed Network (1988)
Mazarati – “Stroke” from Mazarati(1986)
Bad Brains – “Secret 77” from I Against I (1986)
TACK>>HEAD – “Mind And Movement” from Friendly As A Hand Grenade (1989)
Terence Trent D’Arby – “You Will Pay Tomorrow” from Neither Fish Nor Flesh(1989)
The Family – “High Fashion” from The Family (1985)
