117. Ancient Aethiopia ~ Sun Ra

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

123. Gap Band - "You Dropped a Bomb on Me"

For me, funk is at its nastiest with syrupy, bass lines-a-warpin', synths abuzz and crazy high harmonies. No song brings out my inner freak quite like this one.

I didn't know which track of hers to choose either, but I knew it had to be from 'Frank'. A flawless album from the beginning to end love I hate how it's hidden by the success of 'Back To Black', definitely needs more attention than it has received!

129) Charlie Parker - Koko




Charlie Parker was one of the most influential improvising soloists in jazz, and a central figure in the development of bop in the 1940s. A legendary figure in his own lifetime, he was idolized by those who worked with him, and he inspired a generation of jazz performers and composers.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=


By his own later account, he was bored with the stereotyped changes that were being used then. He said, "I kept thinking there's bound to be something else. I could hear it sometimes, but I couldn't play it." While working over at the Cherokee in a jam session with the guitarist Biddy Fleet, Parker suddenly found that by using the higher intervals of a chord as a melody line and backing them with appropriately related changes he could play what he had been "hearing." Yet, it was not until 1944-5 that his conceptions of rhythm and phrasing had evolved sufficiently to form his mature style.

130. "I Want You" - Marvin Gaye

probably my favorite marvin song. it's hypnotizing - the vocals, the rhythm. then those lyrics just send it over the edge.

How can I stand 2 stay where I am? / Poor butterfly who don't understand.
