Bumped some Groove Theory on the ride to work this morning.



Something about Amel Larrieux that I always liked ...

I hit a few shops in Atlanta. Managed to find some nice ones.

I went to Wuxtry, which has a nice soundtrack selection and Full Moon records. Full Moon is a small shop but it has a good selection and a cool vibe. If you are ever in the area, the Gato Bizco restaurant across the street from Full Moon Records is awesome. Killer huevos rancheros.

James Brown - Black Caesar







This has been sampled by a few

Payed the cost to be the boss




The Baby Huey Story







Pigmeat Markham



Def some proto hip hop





The Fugs



I first heard of the these guys when I inherited The Fugs - Fist album from my mother. This is one crazy band.

BEWARE THE MAN WHO IS NOT MOVED BY SOUND!




Babe Ruth



I love this Ennio Morricone inspired rocker





The Grodeck Whipperjenny



This band was a James Brown discovery.




I have been wanting to do a post for this guy.

Nice post Kep!! I got that Baby Huey joint and it's dope . Been looking for Black Caesar , but every time I find a copy , it's very beat up . Probably gonna have to cop the repress . The other artists on your post I am unfamiliar with , but all the tracks you posted were great..
I got the Friends Of Distinction in the headphones right now .

^ @JayBrown - The strings in the intro to going in circles is so sick!

I was hanging out with my cousin who has been living in Japan. He turned me on the this band.

...and GMM is back once again with the modern funk 45s, good ish.

Isn't it nice that there's still a hot funk 45 scene in 2014?
