You'll be amongst the first to know, Rasser.
Time for a bit of fun. The Bar-Kays, through the decades:

Okay, no video, but a very upbeat stax sound. Nice R&B tune with a hint of proto-funk. Promising start

I like the cat who has a bit of philosophising at the start. They all dress like me, which is cool. Wah guitar vamping on a minor chord, almost like 'jungle boogie' - the tail end of the blaxploitation sound. Rising rapidly..

NONONONONONO. They dress like chatterbox. I think he has a cameo part (ie a red leather codpiece). It's like Rick James and Cameo had a talentless baby. Red leather jackets, white leather belts, aviator specs, feathers. Shoite vocoder part, also.

Its 'kids in the hall' horrific. J-dog has a tape like this but for 90 mins that he plays as he drives in his car. In his ripped T-shirt.
