That one is a super, super early Karl Hector record - a live performance of the Poets in Switzerland in like 1995 and given out as a promo? Original song is James Young and the House Wreckers/James Young Blues Band "Funky Booty" which did not have the overcooked organ. The only copy on discogs is 1500 euros, which I honestly would find worth it if I could pay it. Cassette-sounding mix and all.
Anyway today's keeping it German, why not:
today's, straight out of Egypt, don't sleep on pépite records
Also it's credited to Leon Ware and Bob Hilliard - WTF? I thought Deep Throat OST was famously anonymous. I have no idea where this 45's high quality instrumental version came from (youtube says only German sex cinemas sold it?? come on, get real) but the label says it was them.
and the lo-fi longass version that I think is on every LP of the soundtrackAndy Loore aka Janko Nilovic double feature
mellow italian, sounds like library but I think it's not
Fun fact: Louis Chachere produced deep funk legend "Remember Me" by Trinikas.

Life-affirmingly funky, love it when he starts really going at it and you can hear the crowd are going batshit for it.

But if we're doing long soul-jazz jams then my post for today should be Melvin Sparks' WGTTW cover. While Melvin's guitar soloing is great wherever I hear it, and Idris Muhammad's drums is what first drew me to this track when I heard it on a LONG dead site "raremusic.com" on .mp2 (really), I am still into it for the Leon Spencer organ solo at about 5-8 minutes.
Also a cool looking record cover.
from soul brother to soul power, don't know anything about this one:
Thanks to the Louisianan producer himself who hooked me up with a copy years back out of generosity.
I don't know much about this track but the hammond player on this is a maniac and someone should've been there to tell him not to do it, but I'm glad no one did:
in case the Topic video above doesn't work for your region, a really shittily digitized version
It reminds me a lot of Flat Backin' by Jack McDuff.
I like the solo a lot on this one. Sugarman 3 are good live too.
i played this in the office the other day and one of the italians came over and asked me to use earplugs. "maybe some of us don't like your music" for some reason i find myself playing it again and again. resigning is starting to feel better and better.
The guy from the venus in furs record store went to amsterdam and the music with soul guys recorded this 45 with him doing vocals... ridiculous garage. It sounds like they wrecked something on the organ by the end of the track. Ignore the shitty video... is that minstrelsy?? why??
bonus lugnut records cover - it hews close to the original but I might actually prefer the soundThis is the tune which plays in my head every time I have to make an important decision:
Back when smoking cigarettes was sexy and even good for you. RJR, my initials!:
Ultra rare Ed Townsend produced 45:
Tribute to Jimmy McGriff:
I'm not sure if I heard the Nilsmen one in full before, but I've heard it sampled by Cornershop of all things (song called "Wogs Will Walk").
Speaking of Booker T here's a french band doing a cover of Mar-Keys Pop Eye Stroll:
And speaking of live organist video here's Cory Henry messing around and still sounding quality... a minute or two in he gets into "Boogie on Reggae Woman", 5 million viewers can't be wrong.
Belgians.
