Greetings all.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome once again to Funky16Corners.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I should start by letting you know that the Funky16Corners Radio Show<\/strong> train continues forward unabated, and can be boarded this Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio.<\/strong><\/a> As always, if you can\u2019t be there in person you can always fall by the blog over the weekend to pick yourselves up an MP3 of the show (or of any of the more than 100 past episodes stored in the archive).<\/p>\n

___________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n

In other news, though circumstances prevent me from participating this time out, I do want to let you know that the HPRS will be open again on 4\/21, Record Store Day. This will be the 6th anniversary of the HPRS collective and I can assure you that there is plenty of excellent vinyl to be had.\u00a0 The sale runs from 11-5 at 960 Green Street in Iselin, NJ<\/strong> (not too far off of Rt1). There will be another guest dealer (bringing 45s!) so if you’re in the area and vinyl is something you dig, make sure you stop by.<\/p>\n

___________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n

You all know me, and how wherever possible I like to end the week on an up note with the kind of sounds that might convince you and your mates to slip on your dancing shoes, let loose with the juice and get down a bit.<\/p>\n

Miss Lyn Collins<\/strong> \u2013 like so many members of the James Brown<\/strong> galaxy of stars \u2013 has been featured in this space before.<\/p>\n

She had one of the more powerful voices of JB\u2019s divas, and very rarely left the recording studio without laying down something heavy.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s selection is the party (or more appropriately PAARTY) side of a very excellent two-sided killer on the People label from 1973 (the flip being a fantastic ballad that I simply must feature here sometime soon).<\/p>\n

\u2018We Want to Parrty Parrty Parrty\u2019 is marked not only by one of Miss Collins\u2019 patented intros (she wasn\u2019t called the Female Preacher<\/strong> for nothing) but a very tasty, heavy electric piano groove. The JBs line up for some of that razor sharp wah wah guitar, high stepping drums and perfectly arranged horns.<\/p>\n

Things are a little bit slower than some of her better known 45s, but they are also without a doubt funky, extremely danceable and filled with head nodding goodness.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the rhythm track was recycled as the b-side of a JBs 45 (retitled ‘Crossover’) on Polydor in 1977.<\/p>\n

So pull down the ones and zeros, slap this one on your pod-thingy and let\u2019er rip.<\/em><\/p>\n

Your party guests will thank you.<\/p>\n

Have a great weekend and I\u2019ll see you all on Monday.<\/p>\n

Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n
