i'll have to make a plug for Al and Marvin...<BR>there are many possible choices here but i'd vote for 'Love & Tenderness' and 'Make Me Wanna Holler'. It's clear that D's the heir to the funky lover man throne held by those two. I have to admit I've slept on Donny Hathaway (despite my love for Roberta), but my friend just this weekend (!) was telling me about how he's been listening to him on the reg. Any suggestions on DH 101?<P>We also shouldn't forget there are many songs out there sung by women worthy of the d'angelic attention...Rock Steady by Aretha anyone?<P>adamant<P>ps we've gotta get some traffic on this board! it feels so sad when I check on it after two or three hours and there are no new posts. c'mon y'all...<P>"Not until you have heard Rakim on a rocky mountaintop have you heard hip-hop." -- Saul Williams
