Legomaster, I've been getting this as an earworm ever since I listened to it. No worries, it's made it a lot easier to do the dishes :-)

^^ Hi sweetie (that is not meant to embarrass or patronize. People where I live use it casually across-age-ranges and mean it kindly. I was shocked the first time it was extended to me, but now my reaction is "awwww..." :-) )

What's cool is that it brings back wonderful memories for me, while it showcases great music that might otherwise be lost, to a whole new set of folks.

Persevere, young sir :-) your mission is worthwhile :-) and I'm serious.

I sure will persevere, to keep this history going, which other youths never really thought of to do. ;)

I *love* Curtis Mayfield. Wish he were still around creating this gorgeous stuff.

(Legomaster, you done gave me another earworm :-) Keep up the good work :-) )

What kind of housework? Housework itself sounds hard to do.

Just the normal stuff. I have kitties (and they shed) so vacuuming is on the agenda daily, along with dust mopping. Lots easier if you can kind of dance through it (turns out it is actually useful exercise). Lots easier to do that with a good funky earworm going :-). Ditto dish washing.

@Kelby: yum, I had forgotten that piece and can't imagine how :-)

^I like Jazz-funk. I hope that fits in with this topic, since it is really a sub-genre of Jazz. Or, is it purely for Funk? No pun intended. (If that’s even considered a pun. Perhaps, just a (inadvertant) play on words).
