Ooooooooh - I just stumbled over this - one of my "long lost" songs of the past  :D  It's one I heard way back then.  For a long time I only remembered bits and pieces of the song and thus couldn't find it.  But I just found it!

The Meters - Hey Pocky A-Way (1974)

Once Earth, Wind and Fire finalized their mid-70's lineup, the hits started coming.  This funky gem was their first major exposure and top 40 hit...

James Brown- Funky President


Oh yes - a much beloved (and sometimes chucked at but we loved it anyway) James Brown gem from Fall 1974.  Good pick!  :)
