    Prior to this song, nobody on the face of the earth ever thought, 'hmmm, sleigh bells are funky', and then this song dropped. That bass line, holy shit, those two guitar tracks panned left and right, man. There's so much room to breath in this track. It's fonky like an open hamper, fonky like a dirty pamper. One of their best tracks imho.

    Hey JJ, Nice reaction to "School Boy Crush," props to you my friend...You mentioned the nasty bass line; the drummer was right in the pocket playing that funky beat and the funky horns (saxophones) discreetly interjecting their parts...However, I just wanted to point out these little details that made this track different & special: the Sleigh Bells at the beginning, in the middle & at the end of the song (Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer plays this while leading Santa's Sleigh every Christmas Eve!!!), the alphabet & number countdown as well as the School Boy's Whistle at the end is absolute FIRE!!! AWB always brought the SOUL & The HARD FUNK!!!

    After “Pick Up The Pieces” this is my favorite “AWB” Joint! Helter Skelter is a movie about serial killer Charles Manson. I remember watching when I was a child, and they would play this Beatles song called Helter Skelter, it’s was scary and eerie! Peace!

    The first hip-hop band to sample this was in the 80s - Eric B & Rakim "Microphone Fiend" give it a listen. That was actually the first time I heard that bass/guitar/bells and I thought it was sooo funky with Eric B's scratching on top of it.. But then I was listening to AWB many years later and once I heard School Boy Crush I was like daaaaammnnnnnnn they sampled it from these funky Scottish boys! Crazy crazy....

    Hi, young man, I was lucky enough to see this band live twice, they are fabulous musicians, and sound amazing live. They come from Dundee in Scotland, and had great success in America, in the seventies, I'm glad you enjoyed their sound. Great reaction. Take care. ✌

    This is AWB at the top of their game. I got to see them live when they were on their "Soul Searchin" tour in 1976 (you must check out this album).
    I am so blessed, and I still whistle the end of this song.
