About What's Up Front That Counts
One of the rarest of Detroit funk outfits, you'll look long and hard in the soul handbooks and music encyclopaedias for any information on The Counts. The group recorded and released What's Up Front That Counts in 1971 and the album is rarer than rarer and funkier than funky. Not content with that state of affairs, we have added two previously unissued bonus tracks - Motor City and What's It All About - to the CD version (the vinyl remains a copy of the original album). This one's a big club favorite and a samplers' paradise. Anyone who has already checked out our S.O.U.L, Funk Inc, Blackbyrds, Pleasure and Westbound funk set Gettin' It Off, (CDSEWD 061) will need no further recommendation. Those testing the waters of funk for the first time, need only wade in to The Counts to be fully and funkily baptized.
