Soul, Funk, Rythym, Motown

I like to listen to this sort of stuff when I’m driving. It’s nice to cruise to and calms me when I’m stuck in traffic:

And just for fun:

Good stuff doc.

Don’t forget Gil Scott Heron and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins!

take off your shoes, I’m about to knock your socks off!

“POW” by Graham Central Station. Larry Graham invented “slappin’ da bass” and there’d be no Les Claypool or Flea without him. First bit of this song is a bit bizarre but gets good after 1:30. Listen to Larry KILL it on the bass starting around 2:55.
