Crazy Obscure Awesome-ness


This is a band that was at one point comprised of Neil Young and Rick James. Hard to believe but true. Apparently another memeber went on to help Young form Buffalo Springfield and some of the others went to Steppenwolf. They signed to Motown as but never released any singles due to Rick James trouble with the law. This song which I believe is one of the few Young and James co-written pieces is an amazing piece of R&B early rock n' roll history. In this picture below you can see the baby faced Young on the left and James of course center, they were both minors when this band existed. Amazing piece of rock history. The Mynah Birds!

Oh my god.....best soul song EVER! Seriously. If this doesn't do it for you, if this doesn't move feet and pull at your heartstrings, you my friend may be soul-less.
Wow! So, ummm....I've always loved Goblin, which is an Italian Horror soundtrack band. But RJD2 went above and beyond mixing this Goblin track from "Suspiria" with mad beats. So cool!

This is the original, later made famous by Young Rascals. Billy Preston, aka "the fifth Beatle" is featured in this video playing piano.
