雖然遲了些,但是這集電台的確是要追憶靈魂放克的開山祖師James Brown,去年聖誕節離開了人世。
音檔已下線。
01. Intro, It's a New Day... / James Brown / Revolution of the Mind(1971) / Polydor
招牌且經典的開場。
02. Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine / James Brown / Sex Machine(1970) / Polydor
所有饒舌說唱的鼻祖,以及能叫人背脊發麻的尖叫。
03. Sex Machine / Sly & the Family Stone / Stand!(1969) / Epic
有人說:「James Brown創造了Funk,Sly Stone則使Funk蓁於完美。」
這首雖然不能算是Sly & the Family Stone的代表作,但是Jam得挺精采,曲名恰好是對James Brown的致敬。
Sly Stone加了娃娃效果的人聲值得一聽。
04. On the Corner/New York Girl/Thinkin' of One Thing and Doin' Another/Vote for Miles / Miles Davis / On the Corner(1972) / Columbia
"It was with Sly Stone and James Brown in mind that I went into the studio...to record On The Corner."
──Miles Davis told Quincy Troupe in 《Miles - The Autobiography》.
