Charly and the Bourbon Family – Boogachi

Charly and the Bourbon Family Listen/Download -Charly and the Bourbon Family – Boogachi Greetings all. Welcome to yet another week of funky and soulful goodness under the auspices of the Sixteen Funky Corners. As has been demonstrated here many a time, sometimes you can find very funky things that have been produced by artists for whom funk was not a first (or functional) language. Today’s selection is yet another of those examples. I first heard ‘Boogachi’ by Charly and the Bourbon Family sometime last year and was shocked that I hadn’t heard it before. Not that it is so wildly spectacular a 45 that it should have appeared on my radar screen (though it is quite groovy), b

Blackjack (1978)

Starring: William Smith Tony Burton Frank Christi Damu King cinemageddon.netThat’s the name of the goddamn game! A late-period entry in the blaxploitation cycle, John Evans’s BLACKJACK is kind of akin to a black-skinned OCEAN’S ELEVEN, if OCEAN’S had less Rat-Pack-style farting around and more racial tension. Frank Christi stars as Joe Greene, a dude who’s gone up the river for five years for a crime he didn’t commit. (Of course.) While in prison, he befriends four fellow convicts and trains them all in the game of blackjack, so that they can get jobs in casinos when they get out. The ultimate plan? Hit five casino/hotels in one night, make some scra

Odetta Listen/Download – Odetta – Hit or Miss Greetings all. I hope everyone is well, and that you’re all ready to end the week with something groovy. If I might make a related detour, I will remind you that the Funky16Corners Radio Show hits the airwaves of the interwebs this (and every) Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio. This week is another very greasy Hammond 45 special, with all manner of burners stacked up and set alight by yours truly. If you can’t be there when it airs, you can pick up the show on Saturday as an MP3, right here at the blog. The tune I bring you today is another bit of that rare but delicious subgenre known as folk-funk (funky folk, folky funk, wh

Sun Dragon [a.k.a. Hard Way To Die] (1979)

Starring: Billy Chong Carl Scott Louis Neglia IMDB.comWho cares about the dubbing or the editing or the mambo jumbo. If you’ve seen enough b-kung fu movies like me you’ll appreciate this one. It’s loaded with fights and weapon fights. They may not be up to par with jackie chan’s drunken master 2 but they are a little more complex then fist of fury. Seriously if you see the part where billy does the hurricana on the one guy in the cabin then you’ll understand what im talking about. This movie makes everyone who can’t fight seam like they can fight. Heck even Carl Scott is damn good! I’ve seen seen almost every Van Damme movie,
