I love them both of course but in this case
I have to say "The Grunt".
That's one helluva jam cool
Also that was the first JB recording featuring
young Bootsy Collins on bass.

I don't know, I wouldn't call the Isley's funk innovators so JB's. How about Dyke and the Blazers?



This is from like '68 or something.
