Description:
“Funky Nassau” by The Beginning Of The End is a genre-defining fusion of funk, soul, and Caribbean rhythms, recorded in Nassau, Bahamas. Its tight horn lines, syncopated bass, and infectious groove create a celebratory, tropical funk sound that helped the band stand out internationally.

The track achieved significant chart success, peaking at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100, and due to it's raw drum-break that their drummer 'Frank "Bud" Munnings' drops on bar 41, has been widely sampled in Hip-Hop and electronic music, including tracks by De La Soul and Fatboy Slim. Its joyful energy, rhythmic inventiveness, and cross-cultural flair make it a timeless classic in funk and rare groove collections.
