Name that tune:_________________ 
  
It's time to celebrate the founding fathers of music that makes me ask: CAN YOU DIG IT?! 
  
For this I must direct you to the Periodic Table of Funk. No it's not the scientific catergorization of odor, it's the specific classification of soulful, "I HEAR YOU, BROTHER!!! CAN I GET AN AMEN?!?!?" music! 
  
Hey speaking of slang (and no we weren't speaking of it I just wanted to change the subject), don't you love how back in the 60's they used phrases like:  DIG IT....IT'S A GAS... etc etc. 
  
What's your favorite phrase, from any given era? 
  
For today's musical selection I have what was meant to be "gasoline for the Classical guitar", hence it's often times mistaken name, "Classical Gas"- Mason Williams 
  
Being that it's FUNK FRIDAY, let's hear from the King of Soul, James Brown.
