I'm Black/Ain't Got No - Hair

[locker300]

Ain't got no guns; we got bananas! xD

[mwsander77]

The female singer is Nell Carter. I think this version of the song might be the best version in that it possesses the speed and vitality that the song requires from the singers. However, I think the bizarre Laurence Welk band instruments in the backgroud distract from the edginess and unrefined style of the song.

[gastabullo]

fantstic!i have a question: do you know who's the bass player in this song?

[gibbredav]

FEEL the funk!

[karskot]

@gastabullo Wilbur Bascomb, Guitar was Fender P-Bass from 1966 with extra Bartollini jazz bridge pickup, plug into Ampeg B-15 from mid 70'

[gastabullo]

@karskot thanks a lot!i love the bass playing of this musical!

[DerKosmonaut1972]

@gastabullo Great point. The bass playing is nothing less than brilliant on this soundtrack. Obviously there's a lot of soul influence but at the same time, the soundtrack clearly paved the way for Funk music which took off shortly around 1969-70. You have a good hear to have picked up on the bass.
