"Makers, Markahs, cranberry vodka,
Got a mink coat that's furry like Chewbacca."
and added more foes in my quest for this gold.
that's one of the better songs from the album, but i seem to have missed the discussion about it.
James Knight & the Butlers

What about the SONS of SPIRIT?
I'm sure that D.R. HOOKER record is on a lot more want lists now...
Also FOOD, George Braith, George Guzman, Larry T, Lovelites, anything on the Folkways label, Sons of Truth, Sylvers II, of course Burton Inc.
This is a good album.
Help!
I've got $$$$ for it.
Holla Boscoe owners in need of duckets.
and
Lightmen
plus
Dave Pike Set - Got The Feeling
I try to jump on the bandwagon, but my taste keeps me from staying on for very long. I don't hear what's so great about a lot of the whoo-pee-doo records. What???s the big deal with Frank Cunimondo for instance? After a few listens, it???s still some MOR jazz to me.
Thanks. AMG has nothing on these cats. Is it soul or funk or somewhere in between? Either way, I apparently need it.
New Reynaldo alias?
I BLAME P*YCZECH
BUT THANK WHOEVER POSTED THE MP3s
Because my vinyl copy is VG-
from dustygroove:
"An excellent bit of southern funk -- very much in the early mode of Little Beaver, but with a sound that's even harder! James Knight is The Black Knight -- leading a tight little combo with a raw funky 45 sound, heavy on the horns for backing, but with James' guitar right up front in the mix, jamming hard in a way that would have made Hendrix proud! The tracks are a mix of heavy funk numbers and more tripped-out jams -- and Knight's vocals remind us a bit of Charles Wright in the old days, blaring out of the speakers with a bit of distortion and lots of soul, really driving home the quality of the songs. Titles include "Fantasy World", "Save Me", "Flyin High", "Funky Cat", "Uncle Joe", "Cotton Candy", and "Just My Love For You"
Actually ss factor started around the time AP did a big post about it... I think a lot of folks forgot about it though.
Latin in general is stupid right now, the funk 45 of 2005 for sure.
Luckily there's copious supply right now
Now that's the truth right there. A couple folks are mad at me for uploading it... sorry j****!
It's a little of both, even a little psychy in some parts. The ballads sound better to my ears, but that's just me.
Nice one!
Joi de vivre!
Sayin though!
baroquely complex, yet funky & breezy.
I agree with this.
I don't get the Cunimundo craze either. The albums I've heard sound like cocktail music. Decent, but far from facemelting. Maybe I just missed the really good ones?
that reminds me, can we throw Dyson's Faces on the list?
BTW Th*s, I brought those ac*t*t*s to Buena Park thinking you might be there, you going to PCC?
Naw. Am I being poked fun at? It was not w/out trepidation that I typed those letters. Fuck it tho, I like music.
