It's "Color Him Father"... oh yeah i got the 45. It's a great song, the vocal melody was even stolen by Huey Lewis on "I want a new drug"Quote:

But to say they're not even famous outside of electronic music, they had several billboard hits in the late 60's.
They, like so many other great soul artist, seem to be fading out now-a-days. For me, they all have a place in my record collection.
Ha, i'm sampling "Sing Sing Sing" for a track i'm working on.Quote:

Lol, I don't want to actually call myself a DJ yet, But in the past hour and 15 minutes, while I was supposed to be working at my job, I read this thread.
I now know what an amen break is, and it's already annoying me...
I found the youtube crossfader thing, which is awesome!
I think you're a better DJ when you don't get them. FOCUS ON THE MUSIC!Quote:
