PrintableUbiquity said: I dig the original Bar-Keys the most (the brothers which died in the tragic plane crash with Otis Redding back in 1967). Cuts like "Soulfinger" are plain hard driven FUNK!
However, I also dig some of the 70s material of the follow-up Bar-Keys such as "Do you see what I see". Anybody dig the "Mar-Keys", the original white studio band of Stax records?? They were all white cats but groovy as hell! Duck Dunn (later Booker T and the MGs) played with them as well as the son of Stax-Boss Estelle Axton. "Soulfinger" is the serious joint! 
Wow! The "Mar-Keys"? Did they go on to become "Wild Cherry"?   | |

thanks Man.I felt that Horn part was Inspired by the Crusaders "Street Life" but never the less that was my cut off that Album as well.I tapped it off a Buddy's Album&also finally got it off Napster.yeah it was one of the first cuts I wanted to have ASAP.Peace&props for bringing this Slow jam up.But I really revived this thread to say that one of my favorite R&B jams is their song "Feels Like I'm Falling In Love" from the 1981 NightCrusin album. Man that track is classic!!! And it wasn't even released as a single. I don't have a hardcopy of the recording. I taped it from one of my uncles who had the album. Tight cut!!! That horn riff was no joke on that track!!! "OOO WEEE OOO WEEE Feels like I'm falling in looove whhoooaaa babyyy" 
I love to hear Larry Dodson funkdafied vocals!!! [This message was edited Wed Aug 13 8:34:13 PDT 2003 by BRO915] mistermaxxx | |
