Music Intro by: Gail Nobles


Con function is a R&B and funk band from Vallego, California, Formed in 1969 I remember their single Love’s Train in 1982 from their 10th studio album, To the Max. It is an R&B funk and quiet storm song that includes a steering bass guitar, glittering keys, and synth centric flair of 80s R&B. Lyrically, the song is based on a real-life love triangle involving Michael Cooper and Felton Pilate. They were the songwriters. Since the songs released, it has received praise from music critics, with the majority commending the bands vocals.


While the song was never released as a single, it has since become an audience favorite and signature song for the band.


I like the tune of Love Train’s and the way it's written.


Warm night, can't sleep, too weak

Gotta call her up.
