🎧 I listen to #Prince enough, YT serves The Purple One's music almost daily on my home page. This evening, it's "Little Red Corvette" (1982).

The song has another reference for me. I saw Sandra Bernhard perform a *raunchy as you please version in "Without You, I'm Nothing" in NY, 1988.

Was feeling drained due to recent/still resolving stomach issues, but then this song showed up in my feed and lifted me up.

Solid, somewhat under the radar album. Recommended. Can still find copies without breaking the bank too. @vinylrecords

Once upon a midnight dreary
While I pondered, weak and weary
To lift my spirit, I had a theory
The funk would cure me, cued up by Siri

"Flashlight" (1978) 10:48

🎧 | "More Bounce to the Ounce" from funk pioneer / , 1978.

You know the chorus in 's "California Love" with the voice box?

California knows how to party
California knows how to party (Yes, they do)

That's Roger Troutman.

DAY 13: a song you like from the 70s

If you'll allow a 3rd entry + wee cheat.

were one of my favorite bands in the 70s. I was *way into the funk in HS in Tinytown, North Carolina, and had all their 8-tracks.

In college, I spun records in the disco and "Celebration" (1980) was a top song-choice of couples who dressed-out to compete in our dance contests.
