You omitted my favorites:

I Can't Stand Myself (When You Touch Me)
Doing it to the Death

Funky Drummer = too long. Everything else (that I've heard) is good, though I've only heard the Lyn Collins version of Think. However, what about "Funky President"? "Make It Funky"? "Papa Don't Take No Mess"? You have "Soul Power" but not "Sex Machine"? Ethan!

Man, I can't believe I forgot "There Was A Time". That song rocks! The drums are unbelievable on that one, as it flys.

"Escape-Ism"! Redoubled by the fact that it wasn't an actual song yet when it was recorded--it was a rehearsal jam, and the tape was rolling- -!

Also: "Mother Popcorn," "Let a Man Come In and Do the Popcorn" (with that miraculous B-vamp deferred for a good four minutes), "Messin' With the Blues," "There It Is," I could go on like this all night but it's tough on my suspenders.

Are there any non-perfect JB songs?

― Ben Williams, Wednesday, 22 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Please Please Please! Get On The Good Foot! Get Up, Get Into It, Get Involved! Prisoner Of Love! Try Me!

― Martin Skidmore, Wednesday, 22 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Just this evening I realized how crap Pigbag's take on "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag" is. What was I thinking? Funky Drummer is way too long. Like a seemingly never ending wank fest.
