Episode 32 - Give It Up, Turn It A Loose
Give It Up, Turn It A Loose
James Brown In the Jungle Groove
Honey “The Carnal” Knuckles and Z “The Humble Magnaminous” Note go back to the roots of Sanguine Soul with this week’s episode, “Give It Up, Turn It A Loose.” We look towards the one and the only, the funkiest there is, the godfather of soul stompin’ music, the forever imitated and never duplicated, James Brown, for inspiration and guidance on this trek. And with the help of the Soul Power king, we take a trip into the crates of funky grooves, dusty soul, heavy sample based hip-hop, and today’s revival of it all.
Honey Knucks delivers a strictly 45 set, going through his collection of dusty vinyl from Mandril’s “Happy Beat” to Sharon Jone’s “I Just Dropped In To See What Condition My Condition Is In”. As for myself, Z-Note I try to move from the funky hip-hop of Special Ed and Ed O.G. into the new old school of Poets of Rhythm and Breakestra. Shelmatic even calls in near the end to give her word on this show, and you should call in too next time and tell us what you think! Or just leave a comment below.
Enjoy this one, we got some venerable treats for your ear drums!
