What do I have to say more about the band T-Connection. It's one of the baddest funk bands since 1975. T-Connection are from Nassau Bahama's and is formed by T-Coakley (Theophilus). They had a few hits during the years. Some hits are 'Do what You Wanna Do', 'At Midnight', 'Groove City' and 'Take It To The Limit'. The latter is also the title track of this album that is reissued on CD by Vinyl Masterpiece.
