this track sounds like dasher's theme song [COLOR="White"]obligatorynohomo[/COLOR]

johnny guitar watson - superman lover

Johnny Guitar Watson is one of my favorites. Very tasteful player, and the way he reinvented himself in the seventies is so impressive. From early electric Texas blues musician in the fifties to completely over the top funk artist.

Plus, he was just a pimp straight up.

grover washington jr - moonstreams (amazing vibe out joint)

grover washington jr - ain't no sunshine

bob james - caribbean nights
