For those who grew up with this original DC funk groove, this sound feels like Ballou HS, Haines Point and Ben's Chili Bowl all rolling over your ear hole at once!
I lived in DC and loved this music! Remember the 'punk/funk' shows? Trouble Funk would play with bands like Discord or The Meat Men. The crowds at those shows were amazing, harmonious and everyone got along and danced together. What a time for music.
Wow, PG County kid who grew up and graduated HS in 84’. Grew up on DC Go-Go. Livin in the South now but haven’t forgotten this awesome music. Folks down here jus’ don know…
Most business's don't even last 40 years...It's Amazing to see them putting down this massive sound 40 years later so perfectly ! That can only mean one thing. This is real music !
When I was little I used to try and imitate gogo drummers using empty peanut cans and buckets. I got pretty good too.😁 Trouble Funk is untouchable 100%!!!
Oh yes. I hit DC area in 82 and it was all go...as in Go Go. All the way live. DC people are some of the most real people in the world. Represent Trouble Funk.
The D.C. legends are here and they go by the name of Trouble Funk. They are doing a show, and they are tight. I highly recommend seeing them live whenever possible. They still play regularly, and they are amazing. At 25 seconds into this show, they drop the go-go bomb, and it sounds like nothing else. Superb.
Back in the mid 80’s I saw a show with the Beastie Boys, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Trouble Funk. Trouble Funk blew the doors off the place. When the other bands got inducted into the hall of fame, I just remembered how much better Trouble Funk was. Drop the Bomb!
Damn, I'm homesick! I remember when you could open your window on a Saturday morning and just hear this music blasting out of folk's cars and stereos. Very D-M-V.
Never heard Go Go till I went to Morgan State University and the students for D. C. would be rocking Go Go. The D.C. girls would go wild when they played Go Go at the parties and I made sure I was right in the middle of them......lol lol
I have Trouble Funk Album for a lonnnnggg time and still play it out loud up the Mountain Clubs in Switzerland!!! Thanks, looking at this make me very Happy and bring a very big Smile. Much Respect To You All
Fam, we was bangin to Trouble Funk in Philly too, Pump me up was the SHIT!!!!!!!! DJs was playing that joint at all the block parties, and EU Freeze by Experience Unlimited too. This brings back memories for real tho.
Outstanding,holy funk batman ,there's a fever in the funkhouse..I have an unbreakable smile on face.funk not only moves it also removes,the blahs.Get the funk out my face.this is as it should be.....sho nuff!whew!
THIS IS TOTALLY INSPRIING!!!! Being a DC native, growing up during that 70's, 80's GO-GO we NEVER imagined it going this far!!!! A lot of people never gave Go-Go a chance, nor the respect it deserved!!! To see it STILL GOING STRONG and more importantly, ACROSS THE POND!!!!!! Words CAN'T EXPRESS it enough!!!!!
River Terrace Park in the summertime, the battle of the bands at the Coliseum, Malcolm X Park, The Carter Barron, Masonic Temple, Cap Centre, The Atlas and doing the Happy Feet. Big Tony, Funk, Lil Benny, Sugar Bear and the Godfather himself, Chuck. When Chocolate City was REAL. Great memories.
I saw Trouble Funk live many times in the 1980s, and it is a real treat to hear them sounding so good in 2018. Thanks NPR, and congratulations all round.
Ain't nothing like DC's go-go music. It's our own and unique to the DMV. Listening to Trouble Funk has me thinking of the late great Godfather of go-go, the one and only Mr. Chuck Brown. He is missed so much and his memory along with go-go will live on forever.
Trouble funk is a REAL truly talented bank.Gotta miss these guys!Rap and jazz mixed with Go Go music,you just cant beat this!I miss this!!They bring back the good ol' days!!When you see people show up and make music right there,you know thats some ****!
I'm here because of the GoGo special on TV One, I'm from Baltimore and DC is next door, i remember hearing Trouble Funk when I was a little shorty, always liked their music 🎶
I was at Fort Meade, Md(between DC and Baltimore)1982-83 and fell in love with GO GO music that one year I was stationed there. Was a fan of Trouble Funk.
This white boy has loved funk since I was about 15 , saw P Funk first time at 22 and I’m now 48 and still listening. Yabba Funkin’ On Baby! Stretching out in a rubber band.
This group inspired me to play when I was like 3 or 4 years old 1540 AM in RVA! Changed my world and taught to hold that pocket on whatever instrument you played!!
In the future, real live music (real instruments) is going to be missed. D.C. still trying to hold on to it... ..and is the greatest in the nation for that...
Still doing it...yes the band is still alive and well. Big Tony and James "Doc" Avery are the only original members. However; we still tour and perform locally from time to time.
I saw these guys at the old 9:30 club all of 30 years ago, I'm a white guy from Boston and I was blown away. 30 years of Gogo later, still diggin it. RIP Chuck Baby! And...PUMP PUMP PUMP ME UP!!!
Ahh yess.....visiting my aunt and cousins in va back in the mid 80's! All I heard was this jam, along with "Let's get small" Chesapeake and Norfolk, good memories!
I lived in Maryland for two years back in the 80s (I'm from Chicago) and I remember this group and had one of their albums. Go Go is to the east coast what house music is to Chicago.
Crankin like crazy! Trouble funk doesn't get the credit that they deserve and has earned! One of the true pioneers of gogo! First gogo band to do a live album back in the day! That "Trouble Funk live from Washington D.C. was the joint! These guys have toured the world and gave gogo a pathway for the other gogo bands! I salute you for your accomplishments, longevity and most of all your originality!
I appreciate your comment Kevin, history has tended to minimize Trouble Funk's stature in go go, but in truth in the early and mid 80s they were THE dominant go go band in DC. Then they took it worldwide. Unless you lived it, sadly you would never know that now.
I always loved Go Go Music ever since my neighborhood friend Eddie Richardson used to bring it from DC to KC every summer when we were in middle school and high school in the late 70’s and early 80’s! Trouble Funk is killing it!
Legends I played their tunes back to back on my decks in da 80-90's.... gonna dig them out again and dust of the 12's.We need A DESK IN THE UK PLEASE? NPR reeeespect
Wow, I listen to T-Funk as a teen in the late 70's just to bounce and groove (pump-pump). Never knew they were Go-Go until NPR! I now understand the deep soulful funk of the band!!! WTF!! Tight!!! Nice Job!!!
Thank you for bringing Trouble Funk, I started listening to Go-go in the 80s, when I would visit my cousin for Christmas in the DMV. I'm so glad to see them introduced to more people. Live is always the best way to listen and dance to Go-to.
This IS perfection. I am so glad y’all captured Trouble Funk, Rare Essence & Chuck Brown’s Tink Desk Concerts. Seriously, shoutout to everyone who made these events possible 🥺💖
Grew up in DC and still have never heard anything close to a GoGo groove. Percussion is untouchable. I cannot not move when that percussion kicks in...and Im a 50 year old white dude! Good Gawd y'all!
Yes, TROUBLE FUNK, DMV we in the house with GOGO!!!!!! I am going nuts, yes this is so mind blowing. People must understand this is our own sound created in D.C. This is historical, The legendary and iconic TROUBLE FUNK!!!!! FATHER CHUCK BROWN created GOGO music in D.C. GoGo music became the sound track for our lives in DMV. NPR thank you, and you understand your audience!!! TROUBLE FUNK is knocking it out the park as ALWAYS!!!!! I am here in 2019.
I know some Soul Searchers who would beg to differ with that opinion. For me, I'm transported back to my days at the college on the highest of seven hills in Tallahassee, Florida. Especially "Drop the Bomb." I remember the exact party and the exact young lady.😁
Back in the day, the only funky radio station I had access to use to play "Drop the Bomb" and "Trouble Funk Express". I only knew "They Don't touch that dial" by Captain Sky and "Work That Sucker To Death" by Xavier. Anyways, they sound great live with all that brass!
You see Washington DC metro area is DMV not Baltimore let's get it right. I am glad that this band is true to it's roots and stay their own lane. Just like all the other east coast cities and rest of the world everybody got their own beat.
Man oh man am I proud of have grown up in DC and had parents who introduced this REAL music to me. Trouble Funk is one of the best of to ever do it!!!!! This was a phenomenal set
For those who grew up with this original DC funk groove, this sound feels like Ballou HS, Haines Point and Ben's Chili Bowl all rolling over your ear hole at once!
like 1970s best BLACK music, for me (Eastern Europe)
Very much go go style like Chuck Brown too
SURSUM CORDA
Highland...6th & Atlantic 😏
@@kay_o5868 yes sir🫡”Summer in the Parks” every hood had a dozen or more “go go” bands
I lived in DC and loved this music! Remember the 'punk/funk' shows? Trouble Funk would play with bands like Discord or The Meat Men. The crowds at those shows were amazing, harmonious and everyone got along and danced together. What a time for music.
A white boy from Beltsville. Go Go music and sports brought everyone together. Almost 60 now & still find a smile when I hear trouble funk.
4 years later I still watch this once a week lol
Wow, PG County kid who grew up and graduated HS in 84’. Grew up on DC Go-Go. Livin in the South now but haven’t forgotten this awesome music. Folks down here jus’ don know…
was locked up there for a
minute !
I'm STILL waiting for the day GoGo becomes a searchable music genre.
WOW!! That horn section!!! I commented once but those horns are cranking!!!!!
Big Lee Yeah!!!
The horns are definitely the butter in these grits!!!
Most business's don't even last 40 years...It's Amazing to see them putting down this massive sound 40 years later so perfectly ! That can only mean one thing. This is real music !
Word
Dude on the Drum set back there quietly KILLING it!!! I see you Dawg!
I'll tell Tony Edwards that you gave him props
@@emanon704 tell him he kinda looks like pharoahe monch too
When I was little I used to try and imitate gogo drummers using empty peanut cans and buckets. I got pretty good too.😁 Trouble Funk is untouchable 100%!!!
No one is taking bout how the drummer plays effortlessly and the precision of the guitarist.
No doubt. But that's mandatory to play Go Go which you know came from Funk, which means it's tight, syncopated, and in the pocket.
@sona amusan
You can't stop there bro, the whole unit is playing like a well oiled, finely tuned machine!
You are.
Mad pocket
Playing the pocket on drums is harder than fast playing solos. Anyone can have a bad night in a band..... Except the drummer.
Oh yes. I hit DC area in 82 and it was all go...as in Go Go. All the way live. DC people are some of the most real people in the world. Represent Trouble Funk.

Thanks for that history and knowledge!
you just droped another one
Wow, and that's when RHCP was still Funky!
theyre better than both of those groups
Thé chili peppers have evolved since the 80s
Congratulations to the Audio Engineers: Josh Rogosin and James Willetts!!! Amazing work!
Damn, I'm homesick! I remember when you could open your window on a Saturday morning and just hear this music blasting out of folk's cars and stereos. Very D-M-V.

I bet them girls hurt you with them moves.
@@DouglasPendletonintherealms Pleasureable pain. lol lol
I Didn’t hear gogo til I went to Bowie loll same situation
Who needs coffee when you can have Trouble Funk instead!
Trouble Funk was always my favorite Go-Go Band!! Still doin’ it 40 years later!!
🥁 🎹 🎺 🎤
This might be one of the best Tiny Desk ever.
oh, so you haven't seen the Chuck Brown one from a few years ago
Davis Davis I saw it. I loved it. That one is up there in the top 5. This TF one is is great also.
You damn right
@@KJon25 Chuck is the father but this Trouble Funk set was far superior.
I agree but you gotta see Chuck and Rakim 🔥🔥 🔥
Deserves a trillion views.. such incredible groovetastic magic happening here..
How can you not like Trouble Funk?!!! Go-Go Legends!!!
Talk about a pleasant surprise! 40 plus years for these guys and still jamming!

Sho nuff!!!
Givin the culture vultures something to feed on!
OG's of Go Go!
This is what WE grew up on...the 45 plus crew..(age).....FULL BANDS.!!!!
Preach
I remember when Pump me up with come on at Dominion skating rink in Northern Va and we would all get on the floor.
Y'all had some good music alot of the new stuff based of trouble funk eu and essence I'm 42 but I know where it came
PG County kid who graduated in 84. Used to listen to Go Go all the time. Redds and the Boys, Chuck Brown…old school stuff.
But how you get paid?? 😟

Mang, they sound great!!! Big Tony is still holding it down! Big up to the sound engineers, they did their JOB! GRIP IT!!!!

I've watched this Trouble Funk video so many times now. I love it every time I watch it. It stays on my playlist. Love Trouble Funk! ❤
I'm not even from DC but I always loved GoGo. Its kinda the best kept secret.
Trouble Funk was the first band I heard live growing up in Virginia my mom took me to a festival at the beach. Introduced me to gogo music.
Outstanding,holy funk batman ,there's a fever in the funkhouse..I have an unbreakable smile on face.funk not only moves it also removes,the blahs.Get the funk out my face.this is as it should be.....sho nuff!whew!

I love Big Tony Fischer and Trouble Funk! This is one of the greatest live performances of all time!
Big Tony is sooooo cool.

In the future, real live music (real instruments) is going to be missed. D.C. still trying to hold on to it... ..and is the greatest in the nation for that...
absolutely,shouts out to DC
What these guys are still out there. I remember them from back in the 80's I'm almost 50 so most of these guys are in the mid 50's to early 60's.
They've had numerous members co m e and go under various circumstances ! Reminds me of James Brown's stage shows 🏆
Yeah but Fat Tony been there from the beginning
Still doing it...yes the band is still alive and well. Big Tony and James "Doc" Avery are the only original members. However; we still tour and perform locally from time to time.

Man! I lived in Baltimore for 3 years and LOVE GO-GO and House music. This was live! ❤️❤️❤️
this play is the NON STOP MUSIC! The wave with beat is continuing, continuing.
"Go-Go" because it goes and goes, once that beat drops it don't stop.

Grew up on GoGo music! My mom took me, my brothers and sister to see the Junkyard Band perform as kids.
Whoa! It is such a delight listen to this!
One of my all time favorites, still sounding tight as always,proud to say they was apart of my teenage years and now, Salute to Trouble Funk!

That bass was killing!! From the slide in at the start, he didnt let up! And the tone was so beautiful!
How can you not like Trouble Funk? Yeah I'm from Bmore but I appreciate a lil Go-Go myself
Beautiful stuff.
The best go-go band ever. Thank you! 😆 👏
Indeed, the kings! So solid & chunky with the rhythm, cracking session. those horns..
I know some Soul Searchers who would beg to differ with that opinion.
For me, I'm transported back to my days at the college on the highest of seven hills in Tallahassee, Florida. Especially "Drop the Bomb." I remember the exact party and the exact young lady.😁
That's hot 40 yrs later Trouble still can Funk it up.
I came here to listen for a few seconds and ended up here for 18mins! Funkin it up!
Back in the day, the only funky radio station I had access to use to play "Drop the Bomb" and "Trouble Funk Express". I only knew "They Don't touch that dial" by Captain Sky and "Work That Sucker To Death" by Xavier. Anyways, they sound great live with all that brass!
You COULD NOT GO TO A BLOCK PARTY IN PHILLY without playing this record! PERIOD!!! Classic funk!! What’s up TF?😌👍🏾🎶
Wow! I haven't had this much fun listening to music in years. Thanks
Funk is like Punk Rock, Go-go is like Hardcore Punk. the extension of a base great thing. Thank god for DC music.
You see Washington DC metro area is DMV not Baltimore let's get it right. I am glad that this band is true to it's roots and stay their own lane. Just like all the other east coast cities and rest of the world everybody got their own beat.
Man oh man am I proud of have grown up in DC and had parents who introduced this REAL music to me. Trouble Funk is one of the best of to ever do it!!!!! This was a phenomenal set
Thanks for documenting this old skool GoGo bands! Great music! I remeber them playing my high school in Maryland...
They, or RE. (so long ago) played one of my proms at Wilson. I wish I appreciated them then as much as I do now!
