In a Gadda Da Vida – Incredible Bongo Band
Classic Bboy funk, and here’s some interesting background on the band:
The Incredible Bongo Band, also known as Michael Viner’s Incredible Bongo Band, was a project started in 1972 by Michael Viner, a record artist manager and executive at MGM Records. Viner was called on to supplement the soundtrack to the virtually anonymous B film The Thing With Two Heads. The “band’s” output consisted of upbeat, funky, instrumental music. Many tracks were covers of popular songs of the day characterized by the prominence of bongo drums, conga drums, rock drums and brass.
The band released two albums, 1973’s Bongo Rock and 1974’s Return of the Incredible Bongo Band. The song “Bongo Rock”, co-written by Art Laboe and Preston Epps and released by Epps as a Top 40 hit in 1959, was covered by the Incredible Bongo Band as “Bongo Rock ’73”, and became a minor US hit for them in 1973, and a substantial hit in Canada.
And lastly, a DOPE and rare Bboy smash from The Pharaohs:
Freedom Road – The Pharaohs
Some background on The Pharaohs from Wikipedia:
The Pharaohs, an American soul/jazz/funk group, were formed in 1962 out of a student band,The Jazzmen, at Crane Junior College in Chicago, Illinois. This early incarnation comprised Louis Satterfield on trombone, Charles Handy on trumpet, and Don Myrick on alto saxophone. They were joined by Fred Humphrey on piano, Ernest McCarthy on bass guitar and Maurice White on drums. Satterfield, White, and Handy were studio musicians at Chess Records in Chicago.
