Posted October 7, 200618 yr just heard this one and has become no.1 on my wants list -from what little I know its 'unreleased' and was recorded circa 1972 -hopefully I'm wrong (I often am) about being 'unreleased' and someone can point me to that elusive piece of vinyl. cheers Andy

Probably a 'boot of some description - but good quality Mike
October 7, 200618 yr there was no official release on vinyl, its on the very best of C.D. however I seem to think it appeared on an unofficial E.P. with some non Marvin tracks.but, I have been wrong in the past but whatever.

Great track produced by the Mizells. Story goes Marvin kept them waiting for 2 hours, strolled in smoking weed and done it in one take and left. It was originally done as an instrumental by Donald Byrd, on the Blackbyd lp which was again Mizell produced. Its on the Lets Get It On Deluxe CD. Sure once I heard another Mizell produced Marvin track on an old Bob Jones radio show, can't remember anything else though. Edited October 7, 200618 yr by Adrian
October 7, 200618 yr It was originally done as an instrumental by Donald Byrd, on the Blackbyd lp which was again Mizell produced. it wasn't quite an instrumental, but it would have been better to have been one on this occasion as the vocal is dreadful on the blackbyrd lp. also check out the version by Funk Inc on fantasy which is really good, has that 3 pieces sound. cheers Sutty

October 8, 200618 yr TUUUUUNE this reminds me of corrupting my lovely new boyfriend (now my husband) at a party in Preston after he'd been to the Howard for the first time....
