    I don't know about you, but I was let down by Afria Funk volume II.. That
    Buari track, Ku Ka Maria? Alright, it's got one nice break, but the next
    track on the album from where that song was taken is an absolute funk
    monster. Why they chose not to include said track, I have no clue.. To me
    it just cheapens the compilation as a whole. I liked Volume I more.

    I was definitely feeling the Shrine comp on Ocho.. I'm all about the C.K.
    Mann and Carousel 7 track, not to mention that bad piece of business from
    Kabbala. Which reminds me, I still need to pick up that Funky Lowlives
    re-edit of the C.K. Mann track.. What was it called? Funk Construction.. I
    shouldn't have passed on that one when it first came out..

    Speaking of Afro-funk comps, anyone pick up Bilongo? I've got Ouelele and
    Racubah, but didn't pick up this latest Comet release.. Any comments?

    Adam
