13."FUNKY BROADWAY"-WILSON PICKETT
IF THERE IS A FUNKIER RECORD THAN "FUNKY BROADWAY" I'VE YET
TO HEAR IT.RECORDED AT FAME STUDIOS IN MUSCLE SHOALS,AL.,IT
PACKS A MIGHTY BIG SOUL SHOUT INTO IT'S BRIEF THREE MINUTE
LENGTH.THE RECORD CONTAINS WHAT MUST BE THE BIGGEST BASS
SOUND OF ANY RECORDING OF THE 60'S OR 70'S.THE MUSCLE SHOALS
HOUSE BAND WAS FAMOUS FOR THIER ABILITY TO CREATE THIS AND
MANY OTHER SOULFUL AND FUNKY SOUNDS.WILSON PICKETT IS BY
FAR THE MOST INTENSE SOUL SHOUTER OF ALL TIME-RENDERING
SCREAMS OF JOY THAT WOULD HAVE RUINED ANY OTHER SINGERS
VOCAL CHORDS.IT TRUELY WAS A MIRACLE THE WAY WILSON COULD
BLOW PEOPLE DOWN WITH HIS SCREAMS AND THEN CAUSUALLY RETURN
TO HIS INCREDIBLE SOULFUL SINGING VOICE.ONLY HE COULD DO ALL
THAT AND TAKE IT TO THE TOP TEN.
