When Something Is Wrong With My Baby
Live, 1967
🕯️Happy heavenly birthday, Gabriel.
Jan. 31, 1992 – May 6, 2021
🌅This morning, I visited my nephew Gabriel on what would have been his 34th birthday. Gabriel was a caring #soul and a dedicated nurse who touched so many lives.
❄️The #snow made it difficult to find his resting place this #morning. I was looking all around, searching the grounds, only to realize he was right in front of me the whole time.
📲If you or someone you know is struggling, please call or text 988. You are not alone.
JR. WALKER AND THE ALL-STARS
Shotgun
1965 U.S. MONO pressing
Another great one that ALSO feels right for a Friday afternoon.
Quite simply one of the COOLEST sounding records ever.
Absolutely essential funky, soulful R&B rock.
The whole album is so great, but “Shotgun” is in a class all by itself. And to think it almost DIDN’T happen.
It was Jr. Walker’s first song as a vocalist, and it only happened because the singer that was hired to sing it at the recording session didn’t even show up!
Jr. stood in, and Berry Gordy liked it so much he kept it, much to the world’s benefit.
The song is ONE CHORD, and it’s one of the greatest tunes ever.

I had the most awesome pleasure of turning @DJUpNorth onto #theojays today. One of the things that impressed the hell out of me when I had the pleasure of meeting Lady UpNorth, was her deep passion for Soul Music.
Soul, Hip Hop & R&B that at her age, her and her mates were NOT Listening to in Edenborough, Scotland. together.
According to her, she was the oddball out listening to the same music I was listening to back in #philly
So as we were listening to this beautiful music,

It's very obvious in hindsight how much 70s soul like this inspired the musical style of hip hop.
CURTIS MAYFIELD
Super Fly
1972 Canada pressing
Happy New Year’s Eve, everybody!
Might as well make the last waning hours of this foul year of our Lord 2025 extra FUNKY.
Touted as one of the few soundtracks to out-gross the film it accompanied, Mayfield’s third album is an all-time classic of all classics.
If your body or head doesn’t start bobbing, or your walk doesn’t start turning to a glide when the title track begins, then you are already dead inside, and there is no hope for you.

RIP Steve Cropper, soul music legend.
He was a member of the Stax label house band, Booker T & MGs and a member of Otis Redding's backing band.
He has many songwriting credits, including " In the Midnight Hour " and " (Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" and more.
He also appeared in the 'Blues Brothers' film.
He was an extremely soulful guitar player who always served the song.
