Ah yes....One of the first drum patterns I ever learned to play

Of course, that drum break (around the 5:22 mark) became the freakin blueprint of early Hip Hop.

God bless Mr. Clyde Stubblefield.

Ironically, Clyde hates that song with a passion. HATES it. And has played only a couple of times since recording it.

Maybe because it was just originally a jam. It was "nothing to be excited about". It was just another day under the thumb of James so I can understand why he doesn't like it. And he hasn't really gotten any royalties from it. So I can understand the bitterness.
