the high numbers, here t'is, leaving here, zoot suit, i'm the face, brilliant r&b from early who, the quality was allways there, pity there wasn't more r&b by the band in this great raw bluesy mood..

This from 1966 which enjoyed some popularity as a dancer at the Wigan Casino.
Not a particular favourite of mine, but it's an interesting tune and something of a classic.
Ron Grainer did a version (someone Urban should be aware of) along with several theme tunes for TV...Joe 90, The Prisoner and Tales of the Unexpected, among others.

Ohio Players-Skin Tight. (my personal favorite, not taking anything from 'Fire' & 'Love Rollercoaster'). YouTube - Ohio Players- Skin Tight

Average White Band-Cut The Cake. (AWB showed that they could Funk with the best of them)

YouTube - Average White Band - Cut The Cake (live)

Brothers Johnson-Get The Funk Outta Ma Face. (one of the best on bass guitar)

YouTube - The Brothers Johnson Get Da Funk Out Ma' Face

Ohio Players-Sweet Sticky Thing. (the ohio players were very jazz orientated, sweet sticky thing is my #1 favorite, the ohio players style of music closely resembles the jazz style of steely dan).

YouTube - The Ohio Players Sweet Sticky Thing

The Isley Brothers=Livin' In The Life. YouTube -

LIVIN' IN THE LIFE - THE ISLEY BROTHERS (1977)
(the history of the Isely's go way back to the early 60s minus, the Isley Brothers, & others, produced some of the best Soul & Funk music of the 70s).

junior wells, shake it baby, great r&b dancer, great to here when your at a mod/soul night, when it's slid in between a few soul numbers, the mood on the dance floor shakes, a good dj knows when to change the vibe...

junior wells, stomach ache, same as above, great r&b dancer, a mod cub classic....

goodfoot · 01-30-2010, 02:01 PM

mitch ryder, cc rider, r&b from detroit, with a little garage rock'n roll through in to the mix, one of my favourite 60t's groups, they had great energy, you fell it pumping right through your veins...

(You have a unique collection goodfoot, I liked Junior Wells-I got a stomic ache), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDckI2P_DPA
Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) Marvin ***e, (as always you can hear the turbulance of the streets, war, & civil rights, etc. with Marvin ***e). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjKFCYzqq-A
Paliament Funkadelic-We want the funk, ( Parliaments most popular song).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Uwm45TINkI
Parliament Funkadelic-"Dr. Funkenstein", (this song even more defines the attitude & personality of Paliament).
