Got this for a real deal. I have been to record conventions and have seen this and Hot Thang for $100+. I managed to scrape a mint copy of Step by Step for $2.50 at Zern's. A farmer's market in the heart of KKK country in Boyertown, PA.

That is a $30 record. And the dealers pull up in Rolls Royce's at these conventions?
I don't think that record is really all that great. That one song Pete Rock sampled is cool but on a whole that record gets a little redundant.

Yea, highly overrated. $2.50 - 10...cool. $100......
Good players, but basically a standard instrumental LP. (i.e. redundant)
What that from that spot in L.A. that we went to?
P.S. I know a girl named S*nay and she's bangin'.
Post a pic, son!
Tha fuck you doing in Zern's!!???
Hopefully I'll find out soon enough *Pasue (?)*
What's this, someone blowin' up Raj's spot?!?
Strangely enough, that's the way I've always felt about Eddy's labelmate Dennis Coffey. After his hit "Scorpio" the pickings are slim to none for that guy...
wow, I really dig pretty much everything on Evolution, Goin' for Myself, Electric Coffey, most of Finger Lickin' Good, and the "Black Belt Jones" 45 is just sick...not that I expect to sway you, I'm just surprised.
I've only got Senay on a couple of 45's, and the only one I really feel is "Ain't No Sunshine," which is definitely dope - and a surprise as the winning side, being a rather downtempo tune, while the flip, "Hot Thang" had a promising name but is actually a straight bluesy track...
Wanted to like him, but a lot of his stuff just kinda blends in the background, IMO.
Now Senay is alright with me. I just have the HOT THANG album, and the bluesy title track works for me, kinda like something U.S. Warren woulda done. While I loved "Ain't No Sunshine" as well, it's just a serviceable cover version of a hit by Sussex Records' biggest artist. (Boogaloo Joe Jones, on the other hand, did a LOWDOWN "Ain't No Sunshine" on his WHAT IT IS album...now THAT is something to hear.)
You know, I pretty much agree. There are a couple of other cuts I like on Evolution--like his cover of "Whole Lotta Love"--but that LP is really all the Dennis Coffey anybody needs.
