Funky Kings was a band from Los Angeles, California, that released one self-titled album: Funky Kings, released on Arista Records in 1976.

The band’s sound has been described as ‘early Eagles’.

Personnel: Jules Shear, Jack Tempchin, Richard Stekol, Greg Leisz (all vocals/guitar), Bill Bodine (bass/vocals) and Frank Cotinola (drums).

As their eponymous debut album failed to yield any commercial success, Funky Kings split up. Jules Shear moved on to form Jules And The Polar Bears.

Note: I've recently updated the zip with a newly ripped vinyl LP at 24bit/48KHz

Encoded at 320K. Zip format.
