all I can say is I very well remember Girl's Ain't Nothing but Trouble, which iirc was on the 1st album, around '87 or '88 - didn't have to wait til those other 2 songs for them to be known in my circles in MD

2008-03-14 07428, 2008

on what grounds do you call him soft?
2008-03-14 07445, 2008

phrasing and syncopation
2008-03-14 07412, 2008

ah - because he quite definitely wasn't "soft" in terms of lyrical content...

and in order to fully comprehend funkadelic you need to see the original album art -- with the comics/graphic novels on the cover

Shock G's record "Fear of a Mixed Planet" quite recalls the Funkadelic artwork

didn't pedro bell and/or overton lloyd do the artwork for that shock G album

Cover isn't really what I mean anyway, it's got this bit in that's sampled in another song, both probably from some horribly old song.

maybe Soul Makossa?

Wikipedia: The song samples the Michael Jackson 1983 single "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'", which also sampled the Manu Dibango 1972 single "Soul Makossa"
I know... but I'd avoid the mess at risk of not exactly the same data

now, re: Ghosts I-IV. He only put Ghosts I up for free download, but the liner states that the entire I-IV is under a cc attrib-nc-share alike license. That means the entire thing can be freely distributed, correct?
and another band (who I also very much like) that also does similar "reaching out to the fans as real people" stuff - TMBG - is in their third or fourth week at the top of the kids charts at both
2008-03-14 07441, 2008

They released the followup kids album Here Come the 123's a month ago
and her kids album "Barbara Hndricks Sings Disney" is one of the greats, it's OOP in the US i think

on NIN, aren't there a couple of hugely anticipated pop/rck albums due to be released in April?

Mmm, it appears I'm missing a good chunk of the albummeta table, and this is why I have no releases. ANyone know how to regenerate it directly? Can't find a script..

I doubt it... she'll end up in the top list, no doubt, but I don't think she's got as much cross-market draw as NIN (anymore)

be nice when the Concords album is out though; cooperaa and I've both added bootlegs for them, main problem at the moment is that half the titles are still unofficial
