Sloan Bey – Look At Your Brother

I know it’s been a while since my last post but I’ve been super busy recently. My new DJ residency kicked off a few weeks back so that’s taken up quite a bit of my time. Hopefully things are all in order now and I can get back to posting more regularly.

So today’s selection must go down as one of my all-time favourite funk records. I can’t remember when, or where I first heard it but as soon as I did I absolutely loved it. This particular ’45 was cut in ’69 and was one of only 2 singles that he produced (the other being There Goes Another Lover in ’72).

I don’t really know too much about him if I am honest. After doing some digging it appears that he was a Philly native who was a member of a group called “The Thieves”. Beyond that, I’m pretty much stuck. Nonetheless, with a track this dope the backstory doesn’t matter so much. So sit back, relax, and hit that little play button and enjoy this sublime piece of funk.
