^^ I freakin' LOVE this song! Thank you thank you (and HighLlama and ASPartofme) for this entire thread. You guys got me out of a dark wretched place with this - and with your jazz posts elsewhere - and I am grateful.
(edit in: this song ^^*right here*^^ is where I fell in love with walking bass.)
(edit edit in in: and this one is where I fell in love with funk. Not to mention, it fits here, oh how it fits.)

No problem! Old music is what I listen to everyday. (So I have some respect for you elders.) I don't really favor much modern tunes nowadays. They lost the soul and rhythm over the years. My dad also grew up listening to funk and some Mexican music, so I got his funky genes in me, but not really Mexican music genes.
