- These songs were all covered and made into big hits but that doesn't mean they are better than the original. Have a Listen. #NFW
Songs explored by Lezli Valentine, Gloria Jones, Jean DuShon, Sir Mack Rice, Sam & Dave, The Vibrations, The Undisputed Truth, The Temptations, Yvonne Fair & The Eleventh Hour
More people should be as passionate about music as you are.. ..the world would be a better place.
This might be the best NFW so far!
This was fantastic Funk! It's blowing my mind right now
@Adam Rees On this ocassion, was a *Soul rendition* .
That Eleventh Hour is gold. Seriously #NFW. :)
You are the man! I could watch these all day. Thanks and keep the videos coming!
you crack me up with grabbing the lamp!
+Trish Mullins Right??!! I was rollin' when he did that.
i just realized you started top ten samples in hip hop history 7 years ago...i still love you man.
The 11th hour stunned me!!!

Always enjoy your show as there is always the added benefit of listening to great music as you present musical history - so interesting! Further notes related to this current present: Gloria Jones other great classic, Heartbeat another Northern soul bestie, inspired Jimmy Somerville's 1994 Heartbeat. She was married to Marc Bloan, T. Rex himself, wrote 70s disco classic "Haven't Stopped Dancing." You could do a whole segment on Gloria Jones, song-writer. Speaking of writers, Sir Mac Rice was the writer of Mustang Sally, as anyone with the Wicked Pickett 7" can see under the title: (Rice). Speaking of Yvonne Fair, she was one of James Brown's special early female singers (see Lyn Collins), & her "I Feel Good" was released 3 years prior to James Brown's "I Got You" (same label King, same writer, Brown). Fair is but a handful of artists that sang duet with Marvin Gaye (1975). Has Lezli Valentine ever been given song-writer props for "Love on a Two-Way Street": hers 1968, Moments 1970, Stacy Lattisaw 1981, Alicia Keyes 2009. Eleventh Hour: great dance album in the same vein of Disco Tex & the Sex-O-Lettes. Please DJ FUNKTUAL: more tunes, more history - DAVEDJ
Thanks Funkt, always droppin knowledge!
AMAZING. Thank you for helping us square pegs from suck ass Florida to be a little more cool.
Omg, I love this guy
Temptations! and The Eleventh Hour totally threw me off, i was not expecting that. At all.
Can't stop watching your videos. Have you been declared a Professor Of Good GodDamned Music yet? If not, I would like to proclaim you as such
0:45 - I died laughing my ass off. "Shut Up." BAHAHAHAHAHA!
Thats some pimp sh*t right there...
Dude...... The Eleventh Hour #NFW
Should be called "No Funkin way"
Do The Players Association - Footsteps. Great cover.
how do you retain all this knowledge!
check out Gloria Ann Taylor "World That's Not Real"
Hey, Funktual, 2 questions for you:
1) Whom do you like better: Dorothy Moore or Merry Clayton?
2) What percentage of your collection of 45 RPM 7" records are
made of polystyrene versus polyvinylchloride? Also, could you make a
video sometime explaining the difference between the two substances so
that people can avoid getting stuck with the terrible sounding, easily
worn out styrene records?
Your kung fu in great old school music is very good. I'd like you to teach me- what essential equipment would you recommend in this Bluetooth digital age to become a decent DJ? Right now I am just parsing your vids, picking songs I like, and going with a portable Bluetooth boombox and Spotify. I know you live for vinyl, but I am more interested in the sampling/DJ/speaker equipment you use, and is there anything out there for novices with special regards to portability yet block rockin beats?
Please include Tammi Terell's "All I Do".....
Was that "hup, two, three, four" in War sampled by Beastie Boys? It sounds familiar.
Where's the "no freakin' ways"?
