ImberBoy Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Download Video Youtube Link This is one of those tracks that still makes me kinda go ooh when you hear the complexity of the music and the sheer joy to the ear. The xylophone gets right under your skin and burns deep into your memory banks, you aint ever forgetting this tune! Loved by Jazz Heads and Soulies alike it gives off a resinous of sophistication that the Funk Brothers would die for. I can never ever remember hearing this played at an allnighter and I only guess it was a Wigan sound? The last time I heard it was Keb Darge bombing the The Altstadt in Dusseldorph with it as a warmer to his funky set, it went down like a tramp on chips.

Pete S Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 I agree though, great track, got a UK Verve issue if anyone wants it, has a little edge bump not affecting play, £20, EX

Remember, a couple of years ago, when I started turning from skin reggae to soul & mod stuff, this was one of my faves. And still is... GUACHI GUARO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Godzilla Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Great tune. 60s Latin though surely? Not remotely crossover as I understand the term. Mind you if I'm wrong I can't be arsed to debate it... Godz
Pete S Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Fromage frais Pete, fromage frais :-) Good call on the track mate but the Funk Brothers are "undissable". (Is that a word? If so, it should be banned)
Tomangoes Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Massive at KGB nighters Sheffield. Crap by Timebox, Ace by Cal. About the same time as James Coit, Black power. Ed
ImberBoy Posted November 1, 2007 Author Posted November 1, 2007 Pete, rodger that ref the Funk Brothers, they are "undissable". Did you clock Osama Bin Laden going mental chicken oriental on the bongos? Brilliant musicians all of them and makin it look so easy, I was a mong on the recorder at school.

Billy Freemantle Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 This was played at The Wheel .And wasn't it played on Radio Caroline? I don't think the Funk Brothers would have been phased at all if they'd been asked to play this type of music. They just weren't.
Mike Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 maybe cause of the below Media Source A place for Sounds, Videos, Radio discussion and links fairly straight forward move to me, but sure who ever moved it will say so once aware
Guest Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 (edited) Great tune..I love Shirley Scotts' version..makes me want to balance fruit on my head...] Try Hank Diamonds version too ....my favourite, bit more uptempo although the lyrics are a bit cheesy ...
