Did u know: My Medallion = Eric Burdon rip? Last night on the radio I heard what sounded like a classic soul tune, a bit left of center, with spoken word verses. The chorus was near identical to My Medallion
Thanx to the orger below who posted the link in response to my original request. [Edited 10/29/08 12:53pm] "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"

Wow! Thanks!
Is this well-known? I've never seen it mentioned and it didn't show up on a search I ran... Shits all over My Medallion... (although I'm not among those that detest that song). So I guess I misheard the lyrics, becsude of the Prince version - but I still can't make out the second half of the chorus: what does he say after Spill that Wine? Anyway, a great way to find out about a classic I haven't seen before. Love Eric Burdon and the combination with War is brilliant. "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"

If it's ok to chime in; here is Jimi with Eric Burdon and WAR.

now to tie in Hendrix and Prince (as if that's a strech) but see if you recognize the drum beat from this hendrix song and where it ended up in Princes world

i dont think so.... Really? The choruses don't sound identical to you? "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"
