Kinsmen Dazz - Get Down With The Feelin' (1977) (buy)
Consulting ye olde annals of funk, one finds that today's band in focus, Kinsmen Dazz, actually arose from two earlier groups - Bell Telepunk and Mother Braintree. Apparently Kinsmen came from the name of a street / club members of the later band performed on / at, and Dazz just sounded cool (even before this and this reached the tip of everybody's tongue).
Anyway nothing complicated about the appeal here - these songs groove to themselves whether you're around or not. They take you where they're going, like strangers in cars only safer. You need them more than they need you.
