Brothers Johnson – I’ll Be Good To You

Thursday, March 31st, 2011

It’s a bit cheesy and all but fun stuff from Quincy Jones’s boys doing one of their tunes that would later be covered by Quincy, Ray Charles and Chaka Khan. You probably know The brothers for this one that, aside from being a very well known tunes in its own right, was featured in the Jackie Brown soundtrack.

Billy Paul – Let The Dollar Circulate

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

This one has been sampled for a few Hip Hop tunes, I think, that latest being some Young Jeezy track that just rips the whole thing. Wicked old 70s cut, am currently loving it with the sun shining outside.

Foster Sylvers – Misdemeanor

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

A friend of mine showed me this tune years back after picking it up second hand. Apparently a well known old skool tune in its field I recognised the intro from M-Beat’s jungle track, Style.

Performed and released when he was only 11 years old Foster Sylvers was part of a family of singers & songwriters, similar to the Jacksons, so I’m told. This was his first hit and has also been sampled on many Hip Hop tracks, according to Google.

Enjoy!
