yeah......OP "Honey" is the shit! "Fire" is a great album as well. also, check out
"Pain", "Pleasure", and "Ecstacy". it's their early stuff on Westbound (same label
as early Funkadelic). I think "Pain" has the highly sampled "Funky Worm" on it.
There is a compilation of the Westbound years entitled "Orgasm", but it may only
be available as an import.
