Review from allmusic.com
by Andrew Hamilton

Instant Funk was a nine-piece funk unit discovered by Bunny Sigler. The
members included Raymond Earl (bass), Kim Miller (guitar), Scotty Miller
(drums), Dennis Richardson (piano), James Carmichael (lead and background
vocals), Larry Davis (trumpet), Johnny Onderlinde (tenor and alto saxes), Eric
Huff (trombone), and George Bell (guitar). The Trenton, NJ, natives created a
stir locally as "the T.N.J.'s". Fireworks exploded when Salsoul released "I Got
My Mind Made Up." Swirling, screaming horns announce the chorus; hand
claps, tambourines and a maniacal rhythm guitar battle the heavy bottom; a
woman delivers erotic lines for added impact. Salsoul followed the number 20
pop and number one (for three weeks) R&B hit with "Crying," a race horse
whose relentless beat only subsides near the fade; Carmichael's vocal is
passionate, almost deranged. "Never Let Me Go Away," a rare Instant Funk
ballad, was so overblown, the melody got buried. Spooky voices and haunted
house sounds wallpaper "Dark Vader"'s comic book lyrics and funky hooks.
Rolling horns pump "I'll Be Doggone" (not the Marvin Gaye hit), a cooker that
rolls for seven minutes. Four of the eight tracks are killers; the other four
should have been killed. [The 1995 reissue adds a remix and a different
version of "I Got My Mind Made Up.">
