ESG

Hi all, another question I keep seeing ESG mentioned when I read about bands. To be honest i don't know if I have ever heard them. I've read they are minimalist funk and have seen some comparisions to Gang of Four, and the Factory label. I see they have a 7" on Factory.

Can anyone recommend the best songs to look for? Thanks!

Get the compilation 'A South Bronx Story' that's out on Soul Jazz. That has most of their stuff collected together.

"Dance"
"Get funky"
and on the latest album "My street" rocks.

also - 'standing in line'
'party music'
'it's alright'
'the beat'

Bryan Poole has a new ESG cover band called 'Tiny Sticks' that I'm rather excited about.

there's an SF band called Tussel that's practically an ESG cover band without the vocals but instead more drums. they're a party pleaser

The beat is maybe my fave along with Moody and UFO

no way, "earn it" is the best esg song!

Call me crazy, but The Rogers Sisters reminded me a lot of ESG.
