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

Welcome to another groovy week where the corners are funky and the music is too.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s selection has been sitting on the back burner for a long time (too long).<\/p>\n

This has nothing to do with its quality and everything to do with the fact that I\u2019ve posted so much Young-Holt<\/strong> ish here over the years that I didn\u2019t want to overdo it.<\/p>\n

\u2018Hot Pants\u2019 is especially groovy because it\u2019s not only a tasty funk jam all by its own bad self, but thanks to the involvement of the mighty Richard Evans<\/strong> (one of the patron saints of Funky16Corners) it sounds like a continuation of the spirit of the Soulful Strings.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Written and arranged by Evans, \u2018Hot Pants\u2019 mixes fuzzed out, wah wah guitar (Cash McCall<\/strong>, y\u2019all!) , chants of \u2018Hot Pants\u2019 and those wonderful strings, whipping it all into one of the great, lost 45s of the funk era.<\/p>\n

Originally included on the 1971 Young-Holt LP \u2018Born Again\u2019, there are two versions of the 45, one (the one I have) a double-sided, mono\/stereo promo, and the other including the b-side \u2018I\u2019ll Be There\u2019.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s one of my favorite Young-Holt jams (of which there are many<\/em>).<\/p>\n

I hope you dig it, too.<\/p>\n

See you on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

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