We want the funk!

"Some obscure Detroit boogie from the 80′s. "Clint Westwood" (real name Danan Potts) and Orlando Cash made up the duo. Westwood used to hang out at the Detroit studio where Juan Atkins used to record, and was influenced by Atkins' style. He also worked alongside George Clinton, which probably helped to add some extra funk elements to Westwood's tracks."

The BEST Rick James rip-off ever made. (in a good way)--One of Sugarhill's very few non-rap releases, comes this funky Rick James homage. The vibe, production, arrangement, and vocals all scream Rick James ala "Give it to me Baby".

from 1971,
this version is a new recording.
The Bar-Kays were originally formed in 1966 as a sextet and their biggest hit was 'Soul Finger'. They looked like they had a healthy career in front of them as a session band & recording outfit before the backbone of the group was killed, along with Otis Redding, in a horrific plane crash.

Only Ben Cauley survived the crash and went on to form what could be dubbed Bar-Kays Mark II. James Alexander (Bass) was also one of the original members but was not aboard the plane because of limited seats on Redding's plane. For Alexander and Cauley and new members Michael Toles, Willie Hall, Ronnie Gordon and Harvey Henderson, the track 'Sang & Dance' was one of the first tracks from the new group, cut in late 1969.
