bazooka Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 from wikipedia: "Watson died on stage on May 17*, 1996, while on tour in Yokohama, Japan. According to eyewitness reports, he collapsed mid guitar solo. His last words were 'ain't that a bitch', probably in reference to the song Ain't that a Bitch." I've already posted this here and in other threads, but I just can't get enough. Ain't That A Bitch - Johnny "Guitar" Watson --- *15 years ago today.

MuzikTyme Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I've already posted this here and in other threads, but I just can't get enough. Ain't That A Bitch - Johnny "Guitar" Watson That's one song I'll definitely never tire of, either. I miss ole Johnny. He was so good to his audience. How 'bout this one... Give Up the Funk ~ Parliament And...just one more thing. I don't believe anyone, funk or soul beat Earth, Wind and Fire's "Spirit" album, 1976! Look for ever and you'll NEVER find a bad song! here's but one of the extremely superior tracks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Ann Peebles - I Can't Stand The Rain Love this sound and her voice, but I have a hard time listening to a lot of Ann Peebles because she's always singing about how awful her man is.

night2day Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 I've truly never listed Ann Peebles in my "funk" category. But, I guess you like her...but do you think she's about funk? What is funk? The following musicians explain it cleverly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shackled77 Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) ^ ^ not a word about this gem from 1978.? It strikes a chord with me having heard it played it a bar in Mich's Upper penisula waay back in about '79. We had fun,no trouble or nuthin'. :sing1: Edited March 25, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
