  • Have you ever been to Morganton? I'd be worried. This guy might not take no for an answer.
  • Edpowers, In response to your role reversal question, just some local observations so yourself, and others can draw their own conclusions: (Not that it matters, but the woman went to NC Central, another HBC, but the concept is the same.) Duke and…
  • Butta Team/Big Daddy Kane/9th Wonder: Welcome To Durham (W2D 12" - 2005) Has anyone seen the documentary this came from? Some wild shit. http://www.welcome2durham.com/inside/story.htm
  • a casualty of internet experience You can be 99% confident I'm never trying to argue with anyone on here (or in real life either). Which is why I stepped aside when I saw it coming. I was just asking you some questions.
  • Do you know who Paul Robeson is Where did I indicate I didn't? I wasn't at all implying that since I hadn't heard of him it discounted his body of work. I was seriously asking.
  • It's the first American film written, directed, and produced by a black person. And as for this one, we can probably go back even further, but for a genuine maverick and influential artist, there is Oscar Micheaux, who was producing/writing/di…
  • I don't like sweetback all that much, but its still great/ important/ brilliant/etc. WHY? It's the first American film written, directed, and produced by a black person. It's the first American film to make a majority of it's revenue from black …

  • Don't Play Us Cheap has been released on DVD...and whatever you thought of Sweetback is what you'll think of the other ones. I think his son's docudrama on the making of Sweetback is more interesting than the actual film...but it's still an importa…
  • Have you seen Sweetback and want to see more or have you never seen anything by him?
  • Mine is white inside too. I assumed later 70's press, but I don't know for sure.
  • You've probably already heard these, but I had to add them: "The Goose" by Parliament has that drum machine and is definately creepy. It's a little long, though. "All Your Goodies Are Gone" is on the same album; it doesn't have that drum sound b…
  • A bunch of jazz musicians: George Benson, Billy Strayhorn, Earl Hines, Stanley T, Erroll Garner, Ahmad Jamal, Billy Eckstine. Probably a lot more.
  • Can someone tell me why he left the stage earlyer than the others ??? Wouldn't you have?
  • As far as the Stevie Wonder comparisons...both were progressive black artists from the early 70's who played keyboards and that's the only commonality I hear. Stevie seemed more electronic and rockish. Donny, on the other hand, appeared to be sligh…
  • [quote Donny had manic depression. Maybe even Bi-polar. Manic depression essentially is bipolar disorder. I have family with the illness and work to help people like this everyday and many of them are highly creative. They are either euphoric …
  • Mickey Murray has an album called Shout Bamalama but I don???t know the number. Can anybody help out? Murray LP is SSS 102 - a great album, although I was surprised to see it has been reissued, since I got my OG for under $10 on eBay less than…
  • SSS-1 Peggy Scott & Jo Jo Benson ??? Soul Shake SSS-2 Peggy Scott & Jo Jo Benson ??? Lover???s Heaven SSS-3 Various Artists ??? Soul Gold Vol 1 SSS-4 Sil Austin ??? Honey Sax SSS-5 Johnny Adams ??? Heart and Soul SSS-6 or 8? Sil Austin ??? S…
  • Pickwick: Do you have a link or personal knowledge of an SSS LP discog? I've compiled a good bit, but I'm missing some titles and have doubts as to whether some had an official release or not.
  • I'm afraid all I know is it was owned by Shelby Singleton, who was a madman...he also owned Plantation, Amazon, Silver Fox, and probably my favorite label SSS International. I'm not sure what was distributed by what and subsidiary to what and all t…
  • It was a dance in the sixties done to music with a delayed 2 and 4 beat (or backbeat). Stuff like 'Mustang Sally' and 'Cool Jerk' were good examples. I tried to type out what a dancer looks like when they did it but it just sounded stupid. No…
  • Nothing nobody's never seen, but in acquiring these I: 1) got in a car accident. 2) had to haggle with a twelve year old who chain smoked cowboy killers and kept insisting his "diddy's" poodles dressed in various period costumes were the best deal…

  • I don't know if this fits into any loose or strict definition of prog. Space rock maybe? I like it though and would recommend Captain Beyond S/T
  • If anyone's worked in the back of the house of a restaurant, or still does, you know the hilarity that comes from interacting with the purveyors. These are the guys who deliver things off the trucks (everything from food to supplies). If it's your…
  • Just to be clear, robotrippin and sippin sizzurp are two completely different things. Robotrippin is overdosing on DXM, which used to be found on OTC cough medicine. Shit makes you hallucinate in a not fun way, imagine chugging a bottle of Robutus…
  • also, first people I was around "sippin' drank" with 10 years ago or so had no clue who Screw or any of this shit was. We was just dudes trying to get fucked up like everybody else. Yes. Most country boys called it Robotrippin. well, I wouldnt…
