[str8outtatexas1]

hey all you youngsters who think these whack ass,no singing,sampling,auto-tuned the fuck out,so called artists today represent music,well they don't.with the exception of a ''few'' today, the industry has sold out this type of classic music for bitches,cars,money,bling,guns,­drank,tattoo's,skinny jeans,& thuggery.a 100 years from now they'll still know what this music is.yet you clowns today think it's o.k. too sample it,but call it old or played out.60's-90's best era of music ever, hands down!

[babah77088]

[moukur]

I'm so glad I grew up in the 70's :)

[blacknasty65]

@moukur I'm witcha on that. the bell bottoms, the fro's, the picnics and parties where our parents would have us dance for the "grown folk".......gotta luv it!!

[moukur]

@blacknasty65 YES. I remember the dance contest. between us and the kids who were visiting us from out of town. our own soultrain , dance party. and the parent were chllin playing cards. house full of food, candy, cakes, and good ass 70's music. no fighting just LOVE.

[DAPEACHEE1]

[pc0p1mp]

Definitive of an era!... Now where are my roller skates?!

[mistycat57]

yo' don't think youngesters don't get it. yuo gotta understand music changes. do you not like what your parents played?

[Ojukiah]

@mistycat57 I get it...

so why do most of the new music basically samples of old school tracks with New Lyrics--

"watered down" is what it is. I can't listen to the new stuff because it isn't new AT ALL!

[Ojukiah]

@mistycat57 I get it...

so  why is most of the new music basically samples of old school tracks with New Lyrics--

"watered down" is what it is. I can't listen to the new stuff because it isn't new AT ALL!

[mistycat57]

@Ojukiah ,do you like the songs your parents listen to. not only did alot of their music get covered by the artist of our time. but like i said the music changed,and like zep says "the song remains the same".although they didn't sample,the play the music and lyrics.

[mistycat57]

@Ojukiah the reason is they can't write music, they're good at what they think is poetry,or something ,nor can't play instraments (sorry i don't spell good) but in the 70"s there were remakes of earlier songs with no change in music or lyrics.

[ifitwasntforHIM]

mean horn

[nebnorfan]

That's that hit rite dere!!!

[nebnorfan]

That's that hit rite dere!!!

[nebnorfan]

That's that shit rite dere!!!

[karmelsugar]

songs like these are responsible for my jacked up feet! Trying to be cute back in the days, wearing high heel (w/pointy toes on top of that) shoes, & couldn't sit down with jamz like these coming back to back...long-extended versions mixed into the next. we danced until we were soaking wet & had to carry shoes home.....so much fun!!!!

[missuma2]

Funky Tom Browne & band classic w/a Chaka sound twist !

[svendiamond]

young people are stupid and old people are not stupid

[tootieluvsmusic]

Jazz-funk at its finest! Tom Browne could do no wrong because his songs made people that hardly ever dance at parties wanna get up & shake something!

[JackTheNasty1]

I wanna grip ya hips and move!

[musicmanro]

[JazzBass7]

Just because we're young doesn't mean we don't know what real music is. I hate when people say that then get surprised when I take out my bass and start playing Earth, Wind, & Fire or Zapp & Roger basslines. Either way...it sounds like Marcus Miller is on this track tearing the pocket up with some funky bass!!!

[kax61]

@JazzBass7 Well, according to the album sleeve it's not Marcus Miller on this very track, but Sekou Bunch.

[JazzBass7]

@kax61 Thanks for the info. I did say it sounds like him but Sekou is definitely apart of my iTunes library!

[TheAfterLifeNow]

[adoratanamicina]

non sapevo questa meraviglia !!gracias por posting!

[Terri2799]

WOW! Why is his picture not on the cover? He should be recognized for this classic.

[robocop207]

Reminds me of skateland on Mission Blvd. in Pomona, Ca in the 80's, stompin on those wooden floors( better known as Funk Boards).

[thejackl]

I love this song! the bass is bumping!

[pisquanciano]

@thejackl

that's sekou bunch, amigo!

[mishun1]

Reminds me of WBLS back in the day.

[luvinlamarr]

Another oldie but goodie forever by Tom 'Funkin' Brown!

[Thamp17]

@luvinlamarr wat u said. ima young one. but luv dis track

[Micaroni715]

Thought it was Chaka Khan

[blackberrycobbler4me]

@Micaroni715 me too..

[MrJuly1990ish]

@Micaroni715

Funny you should mention that, because when I first heard "Funkin For Jamaica" back in the day, I thought it was Chaka Khan and Rufus too! Lol!!

[Spaniggles]

@MrJuly1990ish

I thought that was Chaka on the female vocals of this jam?? This song reminds me of fun high school days!!!!

[MrJuly1990ish]

@Spaniggles

The singer who is featured on "Thighs High" (she song lead on Funkin For Jamaica as well) is Toni Smith.

[Spaniggles]

@MrJuly1990ish

Yep your right...I looked it up afterwards. I thought for years that was Chaka... :) Thanks for the chatt!

[TheGreenerItGets]

My goodness that bass!

[TreeSmoke1999]

Great tune!!!

[MrWINNSLAW]

"I believe it was '81 and life looked so simple to my 10 year old eyes:)

[tonyzackery]

Just. Real.  Music.

[LuvPeaceNMusic]

oh man i havnt heard this in years, still love it to death!

[OldMrMemories]

I think this is Tom Browne's nephew Totis Browne cause it sure ain't Tom Browne on the Cover.

[90Musique]

Aaaah ahahaha I wanna groove youuu!

[glasscitadel12]

dat cover photo ain't TB.

[MrWarandlove]

Back in da day; Gone so fast,and so quick. The quality of music back then, is not being made like this anymore. True music is lost,and forgotten,but I know that times changes,and nothing stays the same; I just think, that today's new artists should bring back some of that old music in a, new, old, original stylish form.

[vaughnvdg]

REAL MUSIC!!!! Take heed YOUNG BUCKS!!!

[markmark1987]

@vaughnvdg im 24 yrs of age i get down to old school i love me teena marie whispers funkadelltics

[vaughnvdg]

@markmark1987 That's what's up!!! Keep listening to REAL MUSIC. It's better for THE MIND.

[Spaniggles]

@markmark1987

You have great taste in music...glad to see the younger generation diggin' it...

[rtp1968]

@vaughnvdg:YES INDEED!!!

[Meridian83West]

I believe that's guitarist Doc Powell on that cover. Someone pulled a major faux pas!

[Aquarianquetie]

@ericbuchanan; sounds like a good idea. An 70/80's party & have people dress up as their favorite 70/80's artist or outfit. I'm doing the same for my next birthday party.

[ericbuchanan]

@Aquarianquetie will keep you posted but like 100% sure its going down......too many people want it

[ericbuchanan]

In Detroit thinking about renting a hall and throwing a dayz of wayback jam with old school classics like this with some zapp/roger, tom browne,whodini,heatwave,ojays,­tempts,cameo,etc,etc......you get the point.....think it would go over well?

[jerryjr37]

@ericbuchanan Yo E...make you wanna go party at the Arubua Palace on John R....lol

[Celliam7]

make me wanna jump in da ride and drop da top and rooooooooooll out!

[RuthieAnde43]

flashback!

[bitlowtothebone]

Tom Brown gave a Bomb concert at the Fabulous Forum back in the 70's. He did it real big back then.
