James brown on the radio today. Man, I could just work it on out today, throw down, dance some. I love to dance up a storm...esp. to old soul and funk music. Ask [livejournal.com profile] ecwoodburn. Except I can't swing dance. She tried to teach me some. But I wasn't QUITE with it.

THAT's the mix I haven't made. Good dance music. And not necessarily modern stuff, like R&B or hip hop...soul music. OOh. And Barry White. And D'Angelo. And Curtis Mayfield. And P-Funk! Uncut Funk! The Bomb! Larry Graham too! And Sly. What else.....Stevie Wonder. Otis Redding.


Get on up!

Y'see, I love punk! But...it doesn't make me dance like soul music. Maybe the ideology's not there, but I love the danceability factor.

I never liked EWF, not because they aren't any good, but because I like my funk with more edges. That's why James Brown is my king. Yet, I love smooth soul music too. Hrm. I guess I DO like EWF some.

ah well. I like a couple of their songs, not as much as the Commodores, which was the other band I was going to reccomend to you.

I'm a big fan of Philly Soul - the Stylistics, the Manhattans...and of the stuff that Gladys Knight & the Pips did in the 1970s...that's all I can reccomend, since you already brought up James Brown, Stevie, Otis, etc. Maybe Solomon Burke and Wilson Pickett belong in there, too?

No, I didn't. I've just had the critical ability of a bottlecap the past couple of weeks. :/

Plus, I want to make sure to be constructive, and not, as you said, blow any smoke.
