What's the verdict on the Roots' cover of Masters of War?

The Residents fixed my brain. Everything I need to know I learned from Third Reich and Roll

Jason Mittell was a professor for a class I took in college. He really brought the rock salt.

This is better:

Rainbow Connection
Damn, I was deep on this song. I refused to play anything else at piano recitals from, like, age 5 to 9. The second really deep, spinally infused song I got to was Soulful Strut by Young Holt Unlimited (AKA, Am I the same girl by Barbara Aklin, but I'm pretty sure I heard the instrumental first).

They're not people, James Ingram. They're Jimmy Buffet fans.

What about the J5 EP?

California Raisins?
Seriously, that cassette tape ran non-stop during every trip out of the County when I was small. It only dawned on me recently that this is probably the reason why I love soul music.

"Jacques Cousteau could never get this low"?

Sweet and Sour
Off the Crusader's Free as the Wind. I got that album on record for like 3 dollars at Octaves in West Leb, NH, the first summer I could drive. That and Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow. I had to put them on a tape!

Yes yes yes! Give me Radiator (especially Placid Casual, Herman Loves Pauline, International Language of Screaming, Demons) or Guerillas (notably Northern Lights, Nightvision, Chewing Gum) anytime we need to get to the beach at midnight in record time!

That same Quincy cut is sampled pretty effectively on the Roots track, "Clones", off of Illadelph Halflife.

Eddie Hazel should be regarded as a guitar god: Maggot Brain, Super Stupid, Shit Goddamn Get Off Your Ass and Jam, and the '74 version of Red Hot Momma.

Pay attention if you can't afford free speech
I gotta say, like I think someone mentioned before, no discussion of P-Funk is complete without a mention of the first three Bootsy albums. Stretchin' Out and Player of the Year are fantastic, and I think Ah… The Name is Bootsy, Baby is as good or better than any of the…

When you're taking every kind of pill…
This first one totally fits into the oversaturation category of pop-culture re-virgining. I wish I could go back and listen to the song "Funkentelechy" off of Parliament's Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome with a new sense of surprise. It's my nominee for greatest funk song…
