Texas Funk, now available domestically for the first time, is the definitive look into the funk hotbed that was the late '60s and early '70s Lone Star State. From tough, urban centers such as Dallas and Houston, to the sparsely populated dots of Pasadena and Longview, one message rings clear – this expanse offered up musical hopefuls who offered “black gold” equal or better to their major label peers.
