Speaking of Thicke....I was late to the video for Blurred Lines -- after it had already stirred the blowback. Goshamighty....then he plays dumb about why it might be offensive...?
I picked up George's "Don't Let Go" & "Follow The Rainbow" albums before I knew anything about him. The covers looked cool and the song titles sounded great. I'm really glad I picked up the records.
Have yet to see the "Blurred Lines" vid. All I know is, there's some controversy for some reason. My aversion to Thicke is preventing me from being more informed.
@caryn i feel the same way re: "blurred lines." and then around the same time justin timberlake released his "take back the night" song and i just turned my back to both of them knowing that if i engaged massive irritation would be inevitable.
The hilarious thing about the Thicke video to me is that the song is so irritating that even with the...erm...*visuals* I turned it off after about a minute. How dumb does he think we are?
Nothing wrong with that, unless they're just objects or being hurt.
I haven't watched it because the clothed people and the hook are all over tv anyway.
Sneaking Sally is pretty good, but doesn't top the Lee Dorsey original. Palmer in those days was very enthusiastic about a lot of great music, got great bands (Meters, etc.) to play on his records and sang pretty well. For me, his version of You Are In My System is his peak.

He got a lot of great people royalties when they weren't cool, so I respect that about him.

Lee Dorsey is amazing. One of my top 5 soul singers for sure. So sly.
Cool. Thanks for the endorsements, folks. Sneakin' Sally should be pretty easy to procure in the dollar bin. I was only familiar with Addicted to Love/Power Station Palmer. Not my bag at all.
Sick as a dog and it's raining like hell, so I ordered some food. But just realised that (due to being ill) I can't hear the damn doorbell, so I may have to spend the next half an hour standing in the hallway waiting for the food instead of listening in. Grr!
