Posted by thehookandsling on 29th October 2007
Hoppin’ John joins us with his current top five 45s.
You gotta love Lee Moses , Not as dance floor friendly as ‘Time And Place’ but listen to that voice!!!
Curtis Mayfield - Mother’s son
One of the lesser known Curtis tracks but arguably the funkiest!
Billy Ball & The upsetters - Sissy Walk
Recently re-issued,funky as hell, the original 45 on Apollo will set you back hundreds, but you’ll be dancing into your grave so hey!!
Personally I love this track, the Jimmy Bee versions blinding too! Sampled to death!!!
Marilyn Barbarin & The Soul Finders - Reborn
Eddie Bo produced and released. Marilyn Barbarin was one part of The Explosions. Come on!! Everyone knows this classic!
