Original Bar-Kays doing Soul Finger

http://www.youtube.com/wa...Cn5mP-vkOk


Here is a clip of the original Bar-Kays doing their first hit single, "Soul Finger." Besides them backing their label mates Otis Redding and Sam & Dave, I'd never seen the original Bar-Kays perform their own composition.

MICHAEL JACKSON: Always and Forever

Classic R&B instrumental. thumbs up!

The trumpet player in that clip was the only band member that survived the plane crash that also killed Otis Redding.
(the bassist wasn't on the flight)

Yeah i just saw this clip on youtube a few days ago.
I never knew the original lineup dressed that funky.
I thought those cats dressed up in suits like booker t
& the mg's.
Bassist James Alexander was a real young cat back then probably
just 19 or 20.
Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint
