Store Categories SKULL SNAPS s/t / LP NEW VINYL / GSF

One of the most classic hip hop beats ever! Skull Snaps stands as a classic in pure funk and soul. The band's irresistible sound embraces the black vocal group sound of early '70s Temptations, Chi-Lites, and Dramatics, cut with an unmistakable originality. Every song is blessed with a gospel-soaked call and response dynamic that contrasts gritty lead vocals with the band's perfect harmonies. "The singing was powerful," says Samm. "Everybody had such strong lead voices. We all took turns singing lead. That's what made the Skull Snaps so different from everybody else." "Our harmony was also unique," adds George. "I did the low parts, Ervin was in between that, and Samm was on high. And it just grew from that." Instrumentally, Samm's unbeatable bass grooves and Erv's scratchy wah-pedaled guitar mesh with Bert Keyes' lush orchestrations and funky horn arrangements, while George's devastating drums takes everything higher. "We went through the soul and funk and got into and the fatness of the music," says Samm. "That's why all the tracks were so powerful."
