Future Funk is a live album released in 1982 by the Washington, D.C.-based go-go band Experience Unlimited.[3]

Critical reception[edit]

The Washington Informer wrote: "Side Two is given over to 'Crankin' At The Go Go'. This is the E.U. groove -- nineteen minutes and eighteen seconds of it. Long form, tongue-in-cheek, big fun funk, its raison d'etre is that 'everybody got to do the do.' You know ... the 'do' ... the 'freaky deak' ... Anyway 'Crankin ...' is definitely for pumping up the dance floor."[1]
