MUSIC SIGNPOSTS ON THE WEB'S LONELY ROAD

Artist: Roy C. and The Honeydrippers
Track: Impeach the President
(96)

Roy C. is kinda sittin' on the fence, but the Honeydrippers know the prez has got to go. They're talkin' about Tricky Dick, but the sentiment works for me tonight.

Inspirational Quote: "Behind the Walls/Of the White House/There's A Lotta things/ we don't know about."

In addition to the song being funkier than a mosquitos tweeter crushed onto a windshhield and scraped off with a 3 dollar bill, it is one of the most sampled songs of all time, here's why..

NOW THAT'S FUNKY!

See who's used it in comments. Here's a preview of the A's! 3XDope’s “No Words” A Lighter Shade of Brown’s “Paquito Soul” Above the Law’s “Kalifornia” Alkaholiks’s “21 and Under” Alphabet Soup’s “The Resurrection of Gertrude” Anotha Level’s “What's That Cha Say?” Antoinette’s “I Got an Attitude” Arsonists’s “The Session” Audio Two’s “Top Billin'”

Right... I agree with Mike & everybody else... Cody, you're hitting several nails on the head with just one stroke of funk genius. E-Applause!

That sample list has a lot of listening suggestions, too. That'll keep me busy for a while ;-)

On a funky friday man moons ago Dr.Funkenstrin said, "Funk is its own reward."

True indeed, but along with the funk your comments weave the same magic.

Thanks Your Emperor

I agree with all of the above. Cody................how can anyone top that? I truly hope all the hard work has helped you in the love department. I mean........wisdom like that needs to be rewarded. And since you're the funk master the only acceptable reward has got to be love.
