"BAR NONE"THE BAR-KAYS-THE BEST OF THE BAR-KAYS:Rising from the ashes of the same plane crash that killed OTIS REDDING, STAX RECORDS ensemble THE BAR-KAYS regrouped around surviving members BEN CAULEY and JAMES ALEXANDER, morphing into a snarling urban funk outfit far removed from their more mostly instrumental SOUL FINGER beginnings. SHAKE YOUR RUMP TO THE FUNK, their biggest pop hit under the new regime boasted a staggering bass line, leering vocals, hot horns, and a nasty vibe that found favor with disco fans, even though their revamped sound was closer to GEORGE CLINTON's PARLIAMENT/FUNKADELIC than KC & THE SUNSHINE BAND. Follow-ups included titillating titles like TOO HOT TA STOP, MOVE YOUR BOOGIE BODY and FREAKSHOW ON THE DANCE FLOOR, which kept them on the RNB charts, even though they seldom broke new ground artistically. In a mid seventies arena where funk acts were as plentiful as platform footwear, few threw down harder, heavier or hornier than the mighty, groove-humpin' BAR-KAYS.RATING: FOUR BARS
