A.P. [Phila.] In an exclusive interview with "My Baby Magazine" Philly-based, funk/fusion band, The Big Unkle "speaks out" for the first time amid accusations that they frequently misuse the term, "Dirty Diaper Funk" when describing some of their favorite musical influences. Some critics and advocates for stinky-butt babies say that the term is insensitive and biased toward malodorous tykes who are simply in need of a change and quick swab with a moist wipe. The article surfaces as the group prepares for their appearance at The Tin Angel this Friday at 10:30pm. In a brief statement released late last evening, band spokesperson and keyboardist, Ken (Unkle) Murray (seen here on the left) added that, "this Friday's show will be our last in the City until next year, so if folks want to see what all the talk is about--they need to come smell and hear for themselves." Band members, Henderson and Theurer could not be reached for comment. <<photo by Steve Schultz
