Soviet band Pesnyary performs funky song Rushniki (1971) Песняры - Рушники

Here is an example of the Soviet Union funk music. The band Pesnyary (can be translated as Bards or Storytellers) was established by Vladimir Mulyavin in 1969 in Minsk, the capital of Belarus. They played pop music contemporary for the time and gained huge prominence in the Soviet Union. But as you can hear, they also created this funky gem. The song is in Belorussian. If you are looking for a new funky bboy tune for sampling, try this.
