This was one of the best and it is smooooooth! The funny thing is Sugarfoot never wanted to sing...After Juney left the group he was thrust into the lead!!
This is the jam..WEST SIIIDE!! But homeboy got a serious grill!!...LOL he cant eat no coochie!! he might tear the Uterus out a sista!! and he dam sho cant have a bite of my hamburger!!
@chynna722 LOL..seriously tho..i could play this song all day long! chillin with a sista on a sunday afternoon sipping on some kool-aid! BUT!! i wonder how long he take to brush his teeth! he would make a scary ass vampire! i might faint just looking at those big ass fangs..lol
Songs today can't touch this! Notice the 'jazz' chords and the way the pianist is 'comping'. Also, the flutes and strings swaying in the background. Man, I always go back to this era (the 70's). Real music, real instruments, no auto tune........and the last chord....pure jazz!
There were a lot great bands in the 70's....I mean alot...but the bands that influenced that era and defined the times....EWF, Funkadelic, The Ohio Players, Kool & The Gang, Bar-Kays, The Commodores, Average White Band,L. T. D., Cameo and The Isley Brothers....I'm sure there are more, but these BANDS were trend setters.....
This group was incredible. I was knee-high chuck to a pup but I loved looking at those albums with that naked bald-headed chic. I know I was not the only kid intrigued with those albums. Just keeping it real.
I love this joint........brothers back in da day had game and da old school playas still got game......I am a 70's baby...73 to be exact.....these yongsters have zero game and dont have what it takes to get my attention....old school all day everyday.....heaven must be like this...
All these amazing funk bands from the 70s don't get enough airplay anymore, especially not in mainstream America. Ohio Players, Commodores, AWB, War, Parliament/Funkadelics, Isley Brothers, Sly and the Family Stone, B.T. Express, Rufus and Chaka Khan, Labelle, Kool and the Gang, Minnie Riperton, and my all-time favorite Earth, Wind and Fire. These bands will always be an enduring part of me. So much joy, power, and unbridled sensuality.
The lip bite, head nod and closed eyes 0:27. Then you got 0:34 the look back (women like to feel you are being secretive. That is their nature. Then there is the macho stand back @ 1:17. Take these and use 'em. Haven't seen these subconscious moves since about '83.

Yo Sugar Foot is the man I remember listening to these dudes and all thei rslow joints to hear Sugar talkin that slick talk to the ladies he was the best! Nobody ad-libs like Sugar by the way they easily should be in the R&R Hall of Fame...
The70's..... such a beautiful time for black culture & music.....Women were respected, social commentary, the message was love, Good Times, What's Happening, The Jeffersons, Flip Wilson, Sanford and Son, Naturals were cut tight, Soul Train Saturday Mornings, J5, Muhammad Ali, SOUL Brotha, Right on!!!....Shaft, Foxy Brown, Super Fly, Ice Cream truck in the hood, Afro pick with the Black Power salute on the end....BLACK WAS BEAUTIFUL!!....Lets get it back!! One Luv!!
The 1970's was a beautiful time back then compare to now !!! If there's anyone with a Mothership that can travel back to that time, I'm aboard for the ride !!!

Daaaaaaaaaaaaayum! Everything on this song jams. The bass is funky as hell, the piano is silky smooth, rim shot too crisp and vocals r like butta! OP has a sound that influenced SO many acts. (cameo, other live bands and artists singing/playing styles) And to think the basically went into the studio with a clean slate and just jammed. TRUE SOUL MUST BE LIKE THIS. IT MUST BE LIKE THIS. And ya gots ta love that afro, baby!
in one interview Sugar foot said that Satch was A bitch! these are his words. it also meant that Satch was hard to work with even though he was the so called leader~ and after watching UNSUNG! it comes out that Satch was a thief ! and financially fucked them ALL!!
@tedkay he sure did screw the band out of their money and homes all cuz he was taking care of hoes outside of his marriage, this is so sad because they were one of th best bands and made tons of money all to lose it at the end over dumb reasons, sad
I wouldn't say they're underrated. I think it's probably more that people --- particularly those who didn't grow up listening to the band --- don't know many of their tunes other than "Love Rollercoaster". The Red Hot Chili Peppers version, unfortunately. Those are the same people who never heard "Higher Ground" prior to the Chili Peppers 1989 remake, either. They're probably more overlooked --- by a certain segment of the population --- than underrated. Most bands from that era are.
@crunchbar123 D'Angelo remade it about 12 years ago. His version is actually pretty decent.... That's coming from a man who essentially despises remakes.
One of the most mellow songs ever!
