Title: Searching for good songs
Post by: stuntman64 on May 25, 2015, 12:10:33 am
Are there any good old songs from like the 1960's through the 1990's? I'm trying to expand my music listening. I want some funk or something like that. Any help will be great.

The Village People - Go West (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wc-AQJ2MYo)

You could give Gibson Brothers, KC and The Sunshine Band, Sylvester, Alicia Bridges, Gloria Gaynor a try.

But why stop at the 1960s? You gotta go until 1860s at least.

Anything by Queen, The Beatles or Elvis. Maybe the BeeGees as well. Ratatat is fantastic but it's early 2000s

It doesn't matter really when it's from because I don't want people to recognize the sample.
