The Kays were known to grab other bands style...

But still a great band themselves

THE "BITE-KAYS"!!!!!

MY 2 ALL-TIME FAVE BAR-KAYS TRAX:

"HOLY GHOST"
"LET'S HAVE SOME FUN"

WHY?????
THEY'RE THEIR MOST ORIGINAL SINCE "SOUL FINGER"!!!!!

You could make a list of Bar Kays songs that sound like other artists' songs They're still a great band,though.

Thanks!

I like Shine too!

My favorite song is Traffic Jammer. Then Hit and Run. I know, they're not the most popular, but I stumped a DJ in Chicago at a club called Shelter that used to be downtown off Fulton. He swore to me that ANY song I asked him to play he would know what it was. So, of course, I asked him to play Traffic Jammer. He had no clue. I won three drinks.
