Modernsoulsucks Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) Thank you Pete. I noticed you steppin' to it when you helped out on the cake stall but when Mrs. Ramsbottom said she thought the carrot cake was somewhat dry she really didn't mean to dis you. We have got rid of the body though now. ROD Edited August 30, 2009 by modernsoulsucks
boba Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Thanks for that Rod, one of my all time faves That redman song is classic, one funny reference is in the lords of the underground video for "what I'm after" where they sample "tonight's the night" they actually have redman do a cameo for the sample part (not gonna post the video to further derail the thread).

Sean Yes Sean. Since Ribble Borough Council twinned Clitheroe with Compton it's certainly opened my eyes and ears. There were a couple of letters to the local paper but on the whole I think it's been a good thing. The opening of the local "Glocks R Us" store has brought much needed employment to the town and luxury car sales have risen dramatically along with drive-by shootings. Arising out of a dispute between the Rotary and local Conservative club; hopefully these will reduce over time as we've now swapped our Bingo night to Tuesday removing the cause of the friction. The craic in the local Irish club has never been better although you do have to smoke it outside. ROD

It never really broke through though like hip-hop. ROD
Guest spudmurphy Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 probably get slated for this but here goes anyway, while the thread is in a scottish mode how about, average white band, picking up the pieces. or as james brown called them the less than average white band
Soul Shrews Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Yes your fellow countryman Mr. Cosgrove wes well into that Go-Go thing. It never really broke through though like hip-hop. ROD Yes Rod, tho Trouble Funk and Chuck Brown played sellout gigs in London back in the mid 80s and go-go was a mainstay on dj"s playlists there(London) for a couple of years. But you"re right it hardly broke through pop like hip hop did Cheers "good to go" Paul

grantdyche Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Cos my 'funkiest' was with a small 'F' cos l was really tired when l posted it.. But don't you think that it's very close to 'Dance To The Music'?? Both are great though!! Never liked "So is the sun" and I still dont,many of the tunes mentioned above I don't like either,But then agian who am I to comment on other peoples musical likes or dislikes,Did it once on here,you would have thought I'd killed someone, A lot of tracks I used to think FUNKY are'nt anymore,But then again as a 16 yr old(back in the days)Loads of tunes where FUNKY, I just did'nt get "them" at the time, Listen to them now though and like them, FUNKY tunes to me as a kid were The Originals "Down to love town", Brass Construction "Ha cha cha",Fat Larry's band "Center city",Barbara Pennigton "24 Hours a day",The french fries "Dance a ala music",Even Car Wash I thought was FUNKY, The reason behind the above mentioned tracks being FUNKY, Was the Blackpool Mecca crew invading the Ritz in Manchester,All wearing plastic sandals,skin tight pants and Mohair jumpers,and all dancing together(well I say dancing)just walking backwards and forwards holding hands behind ears, Anyway call me old fashioned if you like This post as been re-read by the poster, And no intention to imply that the above mentioned are or where dickheads, But as the old saying goes "If the cap fits" I'll get slated for this one Webby Grant
Guest Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Pick Up The Pieces,was and is great,and who is playing that sax?? Sure that one of them was calleds Hamish...Great stuff! There were two sax players on " PUTP " - Malcolm ( Molly ) Duncan and Roger Ball , who were known as The Dundee Horns . The Hamish you refer to Phil , was Hamish Stuart . Malc Burton

Ernie Andrews Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 AWB were on last nite here in Aberdeen but couldnt go! A big funk record on the scene from the 70s was - The Bang Gang - Who said Honkys aint got soul
Godzilla Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Seem to remember 'Cut The Cake' by them as well...Didn't they also look more like a Rock-Band?? Could somebody post up a clip cos l've not got a clue how to!! TA!
Modernsoulsucks Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Im sure everyone knows this but it's said JB was so incensed that he put out the A.A.B.B. version of AWB. ROD
dthedrug Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 HOW ABOUT "WHY DID YOU DO IT" BY STRECH - ANCHOR RECORDS ANC1021, AS A BRILLIANT NON FUNK - FUNK SOUND? AS FEATURED IN THE GREAT "LOCK STOCK AND 2 SMOKING BARRALS" FILM, I HAVE JUST PLAYED IT, AND FOR A 75 SOUND IT HAS EVERYTHING GOING FOR IT, THAT,S PROBERLEY WHY IT WAS USED IN THE FILM? DAVE KIL.
Gary Samways Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 .........And the winner is...Fight The Power-The Isley Brothers... always rated "me and baby brother" by War, serious old school funk and also "shack up" by Banbara
Gary Samways Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Googled it there and listened to it,FUNK INDEED...But was Low Rider funkier? Don't think so,but was so much cooler!! i reckon "me and baby brother" was the funkiest thing they did,i know what you mean about "low rider"being cooler, always reckoned that was deliberately written as a cruising tune and not really as a killer floorshaker! by the way it was'76 not '73 and banbarra was '75, that was a really big funk record down south then,surprised nobody else mentioned it maybe it was regional?
dthedrug Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 THE B SIDE OF THE TRA-LA LA SONG BY THE BANNANA BUNCH? IS SURE DAMM FUNKEY.. IT,S ON PAGE 1 RECORDS. DAVE KIL

Guest James Trouble Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 (edited) Not sure about all this posting of hip hop and popular 70s funky album tracks that charted. All this talk of Average White Band and Kool And The Gang, oh dear Surely it would have to go to one of the funk 45s with a deep soul flip?

Guest James Trouble Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 (edited) And what's wrong with Hip-hop? Sounds funky to me. ROD Yeah, very good Rod. I'm partial to a bit of hip hop now and again, mostly 90s stuff like B.I.G and Jay-Z, pretty well known stuff, but it's hardly soulful despite it's social message. I'll go and pick some of these geto boys things on itunes, thanks for the tip... Soul Music needs melody, surely? Rhyme, Rhythm and social message is not soul music, not in the context of this thread, surely? Or am I wrong? What is soul music? Funk is syncopation. But hip hop is not funk, even though it's syncopated. So IMO hip hop posts are not funk, not soul, and not relevant.
