    • 2. Ain’t No Sunshine

    Big Crown Records are on a roll at the moment! Here is their reissue of the highly sought-after, very rare, and only release by Texas funk band, The Soul Explosives.

    The A Side “Tryin To Get Down” is a lo-fi funk gem with all the makings of an underground classic.  The B Side, a absolutely smashing cover of “Ain’t No Sunshine”, is nothing short of a must have. The Soul Explosives nearly instrumental cover might just be the toughest version on a 45.
