Review - :
{^Funk Collection} seems like a silly title for a {$Kool & the Gang} compilation -- it's about as silly as titling a {$Marvin Gaye} compilation Soul Collection -- but it does help signify that it covers the group's pre-{\pop} crossover phase. This, like so many other sets, demonstrates how they were more artistically successful during this era, despite not being regulars on the {\pop} chart. With rare exception, each selection has appeared on at least a couple other anthologies. The disc scores points for including the obvious tracks ({&"Jungle Boogie,"} {&"Summer Madness,"} {&"Hollywood Swinging,"} {&"Funky Stuff"}) as well as a well-picked batch of album cuts. All things considered, it's rather interchangeable with no less than six other discs that cover the same ground. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide
