We reach a decade of Covered With Soul mixes with interpretations of songs better known in versions by the Mamas and the Papas, Rolling Stones, Randy Newman, The Righteous Brothers, Brook Benton, Ben E King (or Shirley Bassey), Barbra Streisand, Dionne Warwick, The Shirelles, Frankie Laine, Frankie Valli, Jimmy Cliff, Blood Sweat & Tears, Bob Dylan, Chicken Shack (or the late Etta James), Kris Kristofferson, Gil Scott-Heron, Carpenters, Doobie Brothers, Bread and Abba. Even if you are a casual observer of soul music, you will know at least one voice here among the lesser known singers: Dorothy [...]
Great rolling vibes here from all the way back in 1980. This tune completely flopped due to the decline of disco's popularity but it hasn't been forgotten down here at the gym! It was sampled in 1988 by the Jungle Brothers in their poppin' throwdown 'Beyond this world' . Che' che' checkit aout! DOWLOAD
It has been two and a half years since I last posted a Any Major Funk mix. Most of the tracks contained in this, the sixth volume, have been languishing in the shortlist folder since then. So here are 16 more songs from the great era of dance music, stretching from 1977 to 1983. While I'm at it, I have updated the expired links for the first five volumes. Michael Henderson has played with the greats. Having moved to Detroit as a child, he was only 13-14 years old when he [...]
Having been sampled by the Stereo MC's , Jungle Brothers and Ultra Naté there is no doubt that Jimmy 'Bo' Horne has some killer beats. With R&B and disco tunes throughout the 702s & 802s he was maybe one the the less appreciated artists until the crate diggers started to get to know his tunes. For me the 1979 disco hit "Spank" ticks all the right boxes with the stand out electric keyboard riff at the start to the high pitch brass that gives the chorus the euphoric feel. [...]
"If you want to live your life in a creative way, as an artist, you have to not look back too much. You have to be willing to take whatever you've done and whoever you were and throw them away. What are we, anyway? Most of what we think we are is just a collection of likes and dislikes, habits, patterns. At the core of what we are is our values, and what decisions and actions we make reflect those values. That is why it's hard doing interviews and being visible: As you [...]
Serge Santiago dropped off some cool unreleased edits with us this week. All very playful party tracks, some of which you'll recognise from his cracking BIS mix several years ago and even one...

Can you say "Spank" by Jimmy "Bo" Horne? Because that's what this song essentially is after the Madness sample. Cut, slice, mix it up-oh no! "Sixty Nine" (69) by Brooklyn Express mixed by New York's Tee Scott. Brooklyn Express - Sixty Nine
Yes...Long Before Spank Rock, It was Jimmy "Bo" Horne who told us how to Spank it Right!!! And Lets be honest, there is nothing wrong with a premium Spank once in a while. If you ask me, it's probably just about the right thing to get you out of bed on yet another Lazy Lazy Sunday... Spank! Spank! Do it! Do it! Listen: Jimmy "Bo" Horne - Spank (T.K Disco) Spank, woo, woo, woo, woo Spank, do it, do it, do it, do it Spank, woo, woo, woo, [...]
- Frequenze Samples - Sample , ovvero campione . L'acquisizione di un segnale analogico (un suono, nel caso qui proposto) che viene poi trasformato in digitale per essere utilizzato come vero strumento addizionale. Questo ha permesso sin dai primi anni '80 (periodo in cui nacque il Fairlight CMI , primo vero e proprio campionatore) di poter acquisire effetti, parti vocali, intere linee melodiche o singoli riff e poterli riutilizzare a proprio piacimento. Il nostro compito, in questa nuova rubrica [...]
It's been a minute since I last posted some music but I've been listening to a lot of old grooves which I'm planning to feature on here. I thought I'd start with some classic late 70's / early 80's disco funk. First up is Jimmy "Bo" Horne's Spank. Just looking at this dude's face on his record cover, you know he's a freak and he means every line of this song. No, but really, how priceless is this cover!? Second song I got on the fullyfitted blog . It's a Devlin edit of a 1978 song from Canadian [...]
APRIL 1, 2008 Captured by Everyone Is Famous "Overflow" is a list of music that I have found. Some songs are good, some are not, but I'll leave that descision to you, Enjoy! Gwen Stefani - Hollaback Girl (Fidel Klaustro remix) [...]
Some tracks only work within a very certain context when playing out to a crowd, other s may have a slightly more universal appeal. I'm no genius selector, but I thought Jimmy Bo Horne's 'Is It In' was always a safe bet, I guess I was proven wrong a couple of Thursdays ago when I played it to a small but packed dancefloor at the end of my set, leaving behind only a wasteland for the next DJ to take over. "That track you just played left me in bad shape. Its a dud!" [...]
(Deel 270 hiero ) Jimmy "Bo" Horne - Spank label: TK jaar: 1979 kant a: Spank kant b: I Wanna Go Home with You De herontdekking van disco was dit voor mij, dankzij vriend Erwin die dit vaak aanvroeg in het Koetshuis. Want ver stond dit niet af van de house waar we in De Spoel en de RoXY op dansten.
Some more songs tangentially related to the Body Snatchers stories, and more about the stories (with spoilers) below that: Jimmy Bo Horne -- Get Happy There's something here that reminds me of much of George McCrae's work, probably in the simple composition and the repetition, but also in the reliance on a sweet hook and an energetic horn section in a poppy R&B track with high-flying vocals. Another happy song, appropriately enough. [ The Legendary Henry Stone Presents: Jimmy Bo Horne @ emusic [...]
