This was one of my favorite songs from my youth as I remember using it for my phys ed gymnastics tumbling routine.
I was such a progressive back then at 12 years old.

Also, hey what is a thread about Funk Bass without a little Grand Funky?
Another of my favorite bands ever since I first saw this Album in 6th grade.

I’m your Captain! I wore out 8 track tapes of that album. Also one of the first bass lines I worked on after getting the Gibson bass a few years ago. Love me some GF, cause we’re an American Band!
