In the 1970's Conrad O Johnson worked in a Houston school as a band leader. The school band was big enough, but as far as good jazz bands went, they weren't one of them. Wishing to breathe a new lease of life into his students and their enthusiasm for music, Conrad 'Prof' Johnson decides to take drastic measures and try something new. He's going to make his kids play funk music. As the kids become more proficient, they became one of the hottest bands of the 1970's and were known for their covers of tracks like cover versions of 'Theme from Shaft' and 'Super Bad'.

Now, 35 years later his once famous powerhousefunk band are set to reform. Though many of the band members haven't played their instruments since school, they're all willing to give it a go to prove they've still got it and more importantly, honour the man who did so much for them.
