Doug Clark & The Nuts
Baby Let Me Bang Your Box - 1973

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

Here is a dirty song based around a double entendre. I guess it can be hear as a song about a guy wanting to play a chick's piano, although it took a few listens before I even heard the word 'piano' in this song.

Doug Clark & His Hot Nuts (I don't know why this label just says Doug Clark & The Nuts) were a R&B/rock band that would almost always write these kind of songs. They featured titles such as "Big Jugs" and "He's Got The Whole World By The Balls".

If just one side of this mediocre idea still doesn't seem to repetitive enough to you, don't worry. There is a part II on the b-side.


Download and Enjoy!

Albert King
Breaking' Up Somebody's Home - 1972

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

Albert Kings' 'Breaking Up Somebody's Home' has got to be one of my favorite Stax tracks. Play it on a hot rainy night and you'll see what I mean. It just feels good.

The B side to this is not nearly as good but still worth posting.

Download and Enjoy!

Side A:

Maceo & The Macks
Parrty - 1973

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

The title says it all. PARRTY! This is a fun little funk groove produced and written by The Hit Man, The Godfather Of Soul himself, Mr. James Brown and features his (and sometimes George Clinton's) Saxophonist, Maceo Parker. This was released on most commercially successful of James Brown's labels, the People label.

Jean Knight
You Think You're Hot Stuff - 1971

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

No, It's not "Mr. Big Stuff" but it might as well be. It's the same artist, it's got similar groove with similar lyrical content, hell it's even on the same album, but it's not the same song.

The B side is yet another song about someone named Jody. I just love Jean Knight's voice and shes sounds so angry on this one. She's yelling at her man for taking shit about her lover, 'Jody'. Ooohhhh-wheeeeee!

Download and Enjoy!

Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings
I Just Dropped In To See What Condition My Condition Is In - 2006

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

Once again the good folks at Daptone give us a rare slice of good ole' funk. This label is great. Buy lots of stuff from them and go see their artists when they tour. Sharon Jones has new record out so go order it. Or ask for it at your local record store.

Here is a cover of a tune originally done by The First Edition (featuring Kenny Rogers). I remember hearing somewhere that this was originally recorded for a KFC commercial but was scrapped. That might be completely made-up, though.

Download and Enjoy!

Wilson Pickett
Funky Broadway - 1967

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

Here we have Wilson Pickett's Version of Funky Broadway. I highly recommend checking out Bill Cosby's version of this song.

The thing that really gets me on this record is the B side. Wilson doing a Bobby Womack tune 'I'm Sorry About That'.

Star Spangled Banner/Detroit Rock City - 2008

This week is WFMU's 'Singles Going Steady' week to get ready for the record fair October 22nd though 24th so I'll be putting up a different 7" every day.

The B Side is them doing 'Detroit Rock Fukin' City'! Yeah! It's like the best band in the world covering the second best band in the world.

Patton Oswalt/The Melvins
Chunklet Split 7" - 2006

Today I'm offering up a quick little split 7" from Patton Oswalt and The Melvins.

Side A is Patton Oswalt's 'The Two Dumbest Cunts In The World' which pretty much consists of him berating a chick who is talking on her cell phone during one of his shows. A lot of it is him trying to figure out why she would pay to come to a comedy show then proceed to talk to someone else through out it. "Fuck you, liver!" Priceless!

The other side has two locked grooves of The Melvins' aural assault in the form of a Sonics cover, 'Boss Hoss'. It's a good little punk rock number that is given the Melvins usual shit-soaked noise treatment. Drop the needle and randomly get one groove or the other. One of the grooves is the songs in it's regular version, 'Boss Hoss'; The other is the song backwards, 'Ssoh ssob'.

Download and Enjoy!
