      I think its also providing some tonal help for recording purposes. I remember SImon Phillips talking about using cinder blocks in or around his bass drum for a particular sound.

    Something I've noticed....the more Joe Dart moves, the funkier it gets. The less Mark Lettieri moves, the funkier it gets. The whiter Cory Wong's right hand gets, the funkier it gets. The less eye contact Nate Smith makes with anyone, the funkier it gets. All four things are happening on this track. My face was still in "funk grimace mode," 5 minutes after the song ended.

    • @Vinnygotnoodles

    Minimum required watching - 7 times:
    1. Listen to the tune.
    2. Listen to just Corey's part.
    3. Listen to just Mark's part.
    4. Listen to just Joe's part.
    5. Listen to just Nate's part.

      Interesting, I think he is out of place and looks braggadocious in this group. The others are having more fun. Theo would be a better choice. Actually, they should just put Nate in full time with Vulf, calm Jack's Jewish salesman attitude down a bit , close Wong's mouth and then they would be up there with the best funk bands ever. Joe is waiting... Especially if they want to be around for another 20...
