It is a single black LP housed in a tip-on sleeve, catalog number MRBLP347, with four tracks on each side. Mr Bongo issues the album on CD as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe arrangements are credited to Bobby Williams And His Band, with Robert Reese as producer. Mr Bongo's notes place James Brown as the clear influence and point to horn sections, guitar and bass lines built over breakbeats. The title track and \"Soul Brother Party\" each run as one continuous track on the album, where the 7-inch singles split them into Parts 1 and 2. Side A also carries the ballad \"Morning of Love,\" and side B closes on \"Fair Trade,\" an instrumental the label hears as close to a Blaxploitation soundtrack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe record found a second audience through sampling. \"Funky Superfly\" is a sample source for \"The Number Song\" on DJ Shadow's \u003cem\u003eEndtroducing.....\u003c\/em\u003e (1996), and \"Soul Brother Party\" was used a year later on Coldcut's \u003cem\u003eMore Beats \u0026amp; Pieces\u003c\/em\u003e. For this pressing Stefan Tenner cut the lacquers, and the jacket carries liner notes by Williams himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunky Superfly (Part 1 \u0026amp; 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMorning of Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLet's Jam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeach Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col start=\"5\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoul Brother Party (Part 1 \u0026amp; 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGet Into It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMake Yourself Funky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFair Trade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5024017007499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mr Bongo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.11.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mr Bongo","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":48230672531614,"sku":"EVP-1C1BF3C2-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/4523715-3625369.jpg?v=1789618197","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/bobby-williams-funky-super-fly-vinyl","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
