Seminal rare groove funk and deep soul album originally released in 1973 on GRC Records, now reissued 50 years later on Soul Jazz Records in this fully remastered edition for RSD Black Friday.

Ripple's unique blend of funk, soul, rock, proto-disco, and more placed them alongside groups like Funkadelic, Brass Construction, Mandrill, Pleasure, Kool and the Gang, and The Blackbyrds, who were all merging these styles while staying firmly focused on the dancefloor. Hailing from Michigan like the group Funkadelic, Ripple opened for them on their Parliament/Funkadelic Mothership Connection tour in 1976. The self-titled album "Ripple" features the timeless classic "I Don't Know What It Is, But It Sure Is Funky," one of the most iconic funk tunes ever, sampled numerous times. This legendary album has been out of print on vinyl for nearly 30 years and is now fully remastered and presented here with its original artwork.
