177852, What's on your list of essential Roots songs? Posted by souleditor9, Thu Aug-14-08 08:45 AM
My friend Tina and I went to see the Roots and Jill Scott in MD two weeks ago, and she has been completely converted to being a fan (Thanks in part to Kirk's AMAZING "You Got Me" solo!).
I promised her that I would make her a CD of the "essential" Roots songs that she needed to have. I'm having a hard time narrowing down the essentials. Here's what I have so far:
1. Proceed, Pt. 1 2. Proceed, Pt.2 3. Concerto of the Desperado 4. The Next Movement 5. Dynamite 6. Double Trouble 7. Love of My Life 8. You Got Me (Live) 9. Thought @ Work 10. The Seed 11. Break You Off 12. Complexity 13. Star 14. Don't Say Nuthin' 15. Web 16. Boom 17. Don't Feel Right 18. Take it There 19. Here I Come 20. Lost Desire 21. Rising Up 22. What You Want
What's on your list of Roots essentials? Anything else I am missing or that I should include?
