The Smooth Operators (Martijn Soetens and I) are taking it slow on a lazy afternoon😊 Enjoy! 

First formed as a backing band, Con Funk Shun became one of the premiere party-funk groups of the 1970s before turning to a more slick R&B sound the next decade. Aside from being the primary musicians on all their albums, the band also contributed to each of their albums as writers, arrangers, and producers. Signed to Mercury in 1976, Con Funk Shun hit the top of the R&B charts one year later with Ffun, written as a tribute to funk band Brick. Over a ten-year span, they released one hit after another (including Shake And Dance With Me, Chase Me and Got To Be Enough) and were a popular concert attraction as well. California 1 is from their 1981 album Con Funk Shun 7.
