Oh yeah, this is the rare footage of the Soul Train performances. There are only a few played real live in the show, Mostly lip sync but AWB and Tower Of Power are the bands played real live. Jody Watly is in there on the floor with her boy friend alter formed the vocal group named Shalamar.
It's funny you mention Mc cartney.. I've always felt that Hamish Stuart & Alan Gorrie were the "Lennon & Mc Cartney" of funk, because they wrote, played and sang there asses off on all their stuff. That in of itself is VERY Lennon / McCartney like.
WHAT THE FUCK? AWB was on Soul Train? In a word: WOW! That's impressive. Nice tune, bythe way.

The only caucasions that could play funk.

@barefootpoet24 - well, almost. Don't forget about Toto. They could crank out the R&B --REALLY-- good; and a touch of funk every now and then.

One of the greatest live concert bands of the 70's. No matter how much coke or smack they did, they put on one hell of a show.

There are so many bands and singers appeared on the Soul
Train but there were few played real live. AWB was one of
them. Also Tower of Power. Does anyone have that clip ?

Jesus did Paul McCartney know a good thing when he put Hamish Steart on his gig. This guy's got a feel the way Bootsy's got a feel. Awesome!
