about

i looked up the supposed roots of valentine's day and found decapitated saints, instruments of purification (called februa), "men beating women with animal hides..." all mashed up into a great big boon for flower shops, dimly lit restaurants, and merchants of romance. speaking of mashups, here's one of mine. it began as a calling out of misappropriation - and poor uses of stolen treasure. like selln watered-down funque. i grabbed a popular chorus - replaced "moves like Jagger" w "moves like James Brown" (bcuz, who wouldn't?). stuck it inside a Stevie classic, stretching the classic so as to hint at a blues. then i reinforced the point with a tribal, festive rhythm - what i call 'slide-n-butter' (reminds me of boxing) - and toppd it w Jimmy Nolen's guitar riff from 'Mother Popcorn'. happy valentine's day. the #24 tune from the countdown of MY favorite songs that i've recorded is 2014's 'Music Is A World Within Itself'
