Not Quite Funky Enough Oct 04, 2008
This cd is a bit schizophrenic: half the tracks sound fast,loud, and danceable; the other half are too thin and weedy-sounding to be truly funky. The short length of the album--less than 30 minutes--doesn't help either. Recommended only for Funk/Disco collectors.
Review for "Wild Cherry" CD Jun 17, 2007
I really like the "funk" sound these white boys produce. Although the group really was more or less a "one hit wonder", that one hit made number one on the charts.

 Missing writer for "play that funky music" Jul 03, 2006
Mandy,
Had no other way of contacting you so;
Rob Parissi owns the copyright and is credited as the writer. He was also the main guitarist for the track. When he later reformed the band there was another guitarist but not your Dad. There is a photo of the band members on the front of one of their albums, you could check that but from what you have said then I am afraid that the evidence does not support his claim.

 One marvel, four good, and four lousy tracks Aug 27, 2004
As most reviewers agree, the title track "Play that funky music white boy" is a thriller, and is worth the prize of the whole cd
(for my taste the awesome guitar solo could have been longer even)!
The rest pales in comparison but still contains four g o o d tracks; in decreasing order
The lady wants your money, I feel sanctified (a cover version of The Commodores or an even earlier band), What in the funk do you see, Get it up. The remaining four tracks are forgettable, probably produced in a hurry because the band was capable of more. I only know of one "white boy" band that gets as funky as
(the performing) WildCherry and that's Rare Earth. Listen to
Finger Lickin good on their album Midnite Lady, or Keepin me out of the storm on Back to Earth.

in answer to Mandy Jul 28, 2004
The Song 'play that Funky Music' was written by the founder of the group, and lead guitarist Robert Parissi. Other members of the band included Mark Avsec, Bryan Bassett, Ron Beitle, Wil Masisak,& Allen Wentz. Take from that what you will. I personally like this album, it's what you expect from this time period, and 'play that funky music' will always be a dance staple.
