All My Funky Friends is one of the most understated albums to hit the market in the last couple of years (not to mention, very possibly the only authentic contemporary funk album of 2000).
After roughly a decade under the radar of the music industry, Dawn returned to the scene in 2000 with this very funky and very contemporary solo gem.
Not surprisingly, she pulls off a very convincing cover of the whimsical Bootsy Collins ballad "I'd Rather Be With You," as well as a couple of P-Funk remakes.
