The Dap-Kings Concert History

By the sound of them, you would think the Dap-Kings started making funk-loaded soul music in the 1960s. But they didn’t, they started it within the 1990s! A great performing band with the James Brown type of funk. Members are Binky Griptite, Bugaloo Velez, Homer Steinweiss, and Dave Guy.
