Funky Friday, You're gonna need me?

Posted over 2 years ago
I first head of this one via the treats ?uesto used to splash *The Lesson* forum with. As an aside from the "its a small world" catagory, I used to date a niece of her's. Yeah, it was seventh grade and it was the height of *Gerry Curl's* and yeah she and I both had one and used to leave spots on the school bus seats when we got off aka *Coming to America* but what the hey!? I still dated her...("Just let your Soul Glooooow"). I digress, I knew about the Dionne on Burt Bacharach sound and I knew the Dionne That's what friends are for sound, but I completely missed the in between Holland-Dozier-Holland sound, which is like candy to my ears. I love the classical arrangement accompanied my the Issac Hayes like groove of that day.Check it out and oh by the way, how many songs sampled this one?I can think of a couple,J-
