Hardcore funk/soul fans - challenge for you...

Hey guys,

Basically I have searched high and low for this song, but to no avail, any of you infinite fountains of knowledge have a clue what song starts at 16:40 mins (or later in longer vids) from the sitcom 'Everybody hates chris', episode 'Everybody hates fathers day'? So sorry I couldn't post the link, the site wouldn't let me, but the song is right at the end when Chris is giving his dad a gift!

Thanks in advance

Surely someone has some idea, it has to be one of the most melodic groove songs I've heard in a while!

Is it Papa Was A Rolling Stone by the Temptations?

Hardcore funk is actually P-Funk. Bands during the 70s like Parliament/ Funkadelic, Rick James, The Isley Brothers, and so on.

Thanks for the response Necromancer, but no it isn't! I'm a fan of p-funk myself, this is why I know this track is of that nature

I found that particular episode 22 in season 1 on the Internet. Could only find a list of four songs that was played in that particular episode and that was one of them by the Temptations. The only other song I seen out of the four that was even close was Good Times by Chic.

Good luck finding the song.

Those were played as part of the episode, that's why they featured in the soundtrack, I've seen that list many (manyyyy) times haha! So fed up of it. Thank you for all your help, it's much appreciated!

Its going to be a hard one to find because it sounds like an instrumental. I'm not quite sure why its not listed on the credits for the episode. I liked it to, so let me know if you track it down.

Hey thank you for checking it out, I will defo update this post if I find it... But I'll be honest it isn't looking likely

if you look at the episode playlist all the artists are fairly well known, so I would venture to guess that your best shot would be to spin a few albums from soul and funk artists that sound familiar.

My best guess is that the track is from the late 70's...maybe early 80's? unless its retro.
