Visual artist J.R. Williams has compiled a heavy collection of radio spots from the era of blaxploitation cinema for your listening enjoyment and nostalgia. "FUNKY CRIMES" features mp3 disc--124 tracks, plus 62 original blaxploitation radio spots on a single CD-R (total playing time: 6 hours, 27 minutes).
