Zapp - S/T

Because the good Lord has shone down on the US of A (now Obamanation) and most of us proud lib gringos are exhaling for the first time in eight years, getting our drank on and generally plan on spending the next 71 days celebrating the conquest of the wrong (the right), we need a soundtrack to the freak out. Here's one suggestion.

Wikipedia: The nucleus of Zapp circled around three of the five Troutman brothers: Lester, Larry and their younger brother Roger. The duo of Lester and Roger started several groups including Little Roger and the Vels. Larry and Tony eventually joined their brothers when their name became Roger and the Human Body, which also included youngest brother Terry.

The name change to Zapp came courtesy of Terry, whose nickname was that of "Zapp". Discovered by members of P-Funk in 1979, the funk collective's leader George Clinton signed them to his Uncle Jam Records. When that label folded the following year, the group signed with P-Funk's parent label, Warner Bros. Records, and began working on their first album courtesy of co-production from Bootsy Collins.

Released in the late summer of 1980, Zapp's seminal self-titled debut album became a platinum success peaking at the top twenty of the Billboard Top 200 thanks to the success of their leading single, the Roger composition, "More Bounce to the Ounce", which reached number two on the Hot Soul Singles chart.
