Sam and Dave were great.  They also hated the fuck out of each other.

Decades of touring and they entered the stage from opposite sides and never spoke a word to each other.

That 3rd track is one of my favorite songs of all time. 

I love this thread because I get to post my literal favorite song ever.

 

 

a little on the disco side, but he's the king of smooth

and the real love master

 

I was raised on 1960s and 1970s R&B, constantly playing in my parents' car.  Lots of great stuff on this thread.  

Props for Inner City Blues by Marvin.  Such a haunting intro from one of my top 5 favorite albums of all time.

The Four Tops still fuck.

 

And speaking of Marvin, Trouble Man is brilliant.

Not the original four - they're all dead.

Back on the other site (or one of them) we had a similar thread. I created a playlist of all the offerings then, and have added the ones here as well.

What the fuck is wrong with y'all?

 

No Godfather?  No Soul Brother Number One?

Great thread. Thanks, @elguapo.

Grew up on military bases around the U.S. and in Germany, where virtually every one of these songs was a staple on the radio and especially on the jukeboxes of the base snack bars. 

My first real job was at a snack bar, where a coworker, an older Korean woman, would use her daily breaks by pulling up next to the jukebox, lighting a cigarette, and puffing away while staring into the distance and listening to this song, practically spitting out a derisive "huh" two or three times with every play. Especially during the opening spoken portion. 

Day after day, week after week, for an entire summer I watched this routine. Not sure I've seen that level of fixation on a song since.
