Gerardo feat. George Clinton ~ We Want The Funk

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

^^Michael Sembello sings the background vocals on the song. The remixes on the maxi single are good too. Gerardo has been recording all of this time in spanish mostly, but he occasionally does songs in english. He had an album out last year.
