We Got The Funk!

Sorry I haven't been around online much lately.
I've been busy with the kids and life and stuff around the house.

Here's a favorite tune from my youth.  Back when it became cool to be ethnic, when Black was beautiful baby, and even this pasty white girl wore a 'fro and owned a pick.
Pop tunes come and go but the Funk?.....Funk is classic and Goes on Forever!

This should help you get over your Hump Day blahs.....turn your speakers up and enjoy!

    I should totally sport a fro again!
    But my only problem is, how do I pick out three strands of hair?

    I am older than you. In 1976 (link) I was deep into motherhood with infant, preschooler, and elementary age children. Motherhood I enjoyed
    No afro, no pick, none of this music regularly. I had a shag when others had afros and drool-stained clothes. It was fun...lol. Now, it seems I watched from the sidelines. But, that is okay, too.

    Mark,
    My hair is too thin for a shag! I totally understand. We had seasons in the sun.

    I need that for listening to in the car. But then I'd probably drive like an asshole. So maybe not. Thanks for the awesome song!

    Hmmmm.. I think I had a short bob withed feathered bangs. I would have to perm the hell out of my hair to sport a fro.
