I just had this record playing and felt it needed a post. One of the more well known cuts by Stax Records’ in-house and rhythm band, Booker T & the MGs. This is a classic b-boy record with one of the funkiest organ jammin ever recorded (in my opinion). If you really can’t wait, fast forward to 4:32 for the funky breakdown. Also, if you’ve seen The Roots play live, you may be familiar with their cover as well.
