One of the greatest songs of all time….of any music genre: “One Nation Under A Groove.” This is the title track to the 1978 album that gives us 4 minutes of funktasy. And that’s only on the 45. The 12”, which was a must at parties, extends that to over 11 minutes. Play this at a party back in the day and see if EVERYONE didn’t get on the dance floor. The song reached #1 on the Billboard Soul chart in late September 1978 and stayed there for six weeks only being bumped by Chaka Khan’s “I’m Every Woman.” The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inducted the tune into its 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll and the Rolling Stone magazine lists it as #474 of “the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time”.
We pay homage to this iconic tune by presenting the label of the single. The label is printed on a soft 4.3 oz. premium tri-blend t-shirt. The shirt runs a little small so if you like a looser fit, order the next larger size.$26.00

Usually the first song you think about when the band Heatwave comes to mind is “Boogie Nights”…..and rightfully so. Released in 1977 and written by band member Rod Templeton (who also wrote a bunch of songs for Michael Jackson including “Rock with You”), it was the first single released on Heatwave’s debut album, “Too Hot To Handle.” So “hot” was this single that it charted #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and sold over 2 million copies in the U.S. We give our first shout-out to Heatwave for creating this funk/dance classic.

We at Funk Societee don’t restrict the funk to the U.S. It’s a global thing. And no other group represents that like Kraftwerk. The four fellas from Germany have been around since 1970. But it wasn’t until 1978 that they reached their peak here in the States with the electronic-funk driven “Trans-Europe Express” off the iconic LP of the same name. Rolling Stone consider the album one of the 500 Greatest of All Time (it ranks #253) and Vibe considers it one of the 100 essential albums of the 20th Century. The influence of Kraftwerk can be heard in early hip-hop with Afrika Bambaataa’s classic “Planet Rock”. We give major props to this group for introducing a new sound for our musical pleasure.

The t-shirt we use to print the designs is from a company call Next Level Apparel. They make some of the best t-shirts in the apparel biz. Our base t-shirt is their premium tri-blend crew neck t-shirt. This t-shirt is a mashup of 50% polyester, 25% combed ring spun and 25% rayon. That mix makes for three things: an extremely soft t-shirt that drapes nicely with a vintage-type look. So you’re getting a cool looking shirt that feels great. The t-shirt weighs 4.3 ounces. So you’re not wearing a bulletproof vest but a mid-weight garment. And since the fabric is mostly polyester and rayon, there is little, if any, shrinkage. Now the t-shirt does run a little small so if you like a roomer fit, please select the next size above what you normally wear.
Also, we don’t believe in offering you a one-style-fits-all or “unisex” t-shirt (whatever that is). We give the fellas and ladies a t-shirt that’s specifically made for them and their unique features. If a particular style of t-shirt isn’t available for a gender then we’ll let you know and recommend a size in that shirt that may accommodate you.
In the future, we’ll rollout different styles of tees like a scoop neck (for that off-the-shoulder Flashdance look), long sleeve, hoody and ¾ sleeve raglan so you’ll have a variety of options to choose from year round.
We recommend turning your t-shirt inside out when washing. Please machine wash in cold water with like colors. It’s best to hang dry but it’s cool if you tumble dry on low setting. Please do not iron on the decoration.
