Friday night music thread anyone?

I reckon it's Farley Jackmaster Funk 'Love Can't Turn Around'. It gets going at 1'20". The song also features the late great Darryl Pandy camping it up like no-one's business - but what a voice that bloke had.

Can anyone beat this?

Yes Buzzer!!!
Spot on.
There is a just drums and Darryl version where he absolutely lets rip.
So good it makes you laugh hard.

This might also qualify for best use of wind chimes too...

This one too. Bernie's singing isn't a patch on Darryl's but much more liberal use of cowbell.

Listening to it now, thanks for the heads up as I've never heard that version before. F*ck me, that bloke's voice is incredible.

And what about Booker T - 'Soul Limbo'? More cowbell than you can shake a stick at.

I just love that version... So raw and his pipes take the piss, he's that good. See what I mean about it making you laugh cos its so good?
There was a documentary about House Music I watched and in it Farley Jackmaster Funk says that Darryl was an amazing talent to work with but was a proper pain as he kept trying to hit on all the guys in the studio despite them being straight
