A makeshift band consisting of the first incarnation of Thin Lizzy with addition of vocalist and keyboards from the Dublin band Elmer Fudd came together to release a tribute to Deep Purple album
About Funky Junction
Basically the first version of Thin Lizzy with Benny White on vocals and Dave Lennox on keyboards. Brought together to make 'Play a tribute to Deep Purple' which features some early Purple songs and some of their own curios.
Thin Lizzy were struggling financially at the time and this project was designed to bring in some money. The makeshift group was given the name Funky Junction and a photo of an entirely different band was put on the cover of the album.
