The extended version of "Funky Drummer" from the collection In the Jungle Groove.
Also "Soul Power" and "Funky President (People It's Bad)."

Way back in my days as a touring musician, one of our bus drivers had previously driven for James Brown. Cool guy.
I was fortunate enough to see the GFOS live in concert at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage, AK in late 1976. Unusual venue but a fantastic show. He was in his prime. I’ll never forget that one.
Good stuff Nick....The bass in ‘Mother Popcorn’ is excellent!!
