Originally played by Chuck Rainey on the superb Young Gifted and Black album.
It's a great bass line and lots of fun to play.

indeed. Used to be a regular song in our set. Really helps if you have a nice swollen organ in the background...

Oh yes.!! wonderful record Solo. Chuck's bass playing is so cool. This is great also. The dancing is what this record is all about.

I really enjoy watching Beverley Knight's cover of the song because;

She is a fantastic singer
She puts on a show and gets the audience going
The backing singers (I'm making the assumption that they're not pros and they've been recruited from the audience) have a great time

i tell you what although Bev went a bit commercial, she is a bad ass funk gospel singer. she can keep up with Aretha Franklin all day long. Easily one of the best soul singers the UK has. she's f***ing epic
