Kris Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I have a pretty large record collection. I often have late night parties/gatherings after shows etc. I'd guess some of you do as well... My question is, what album is most often in your player or requested to get the bootys shakin' late night... Lately at my place it's been Michael Jackson's Thriller (believe it or not... I can't)!!! It's just too damn funky and the ladies love it... A close second is Shakedown Street (Grateful Dead). On a side note I thought it was interesting that this album was produced by Lowell George (Little Feat). Kris My Band: http://www.fullblackout.com UPDATED!!!

Roto Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I'd say Off the Wall before Thriller. Little Feat usually goes over well, but everyone asks who it is :) Even moreso with [url=http://www.soniadada.com]Sonia Dada[/url] . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meccajay Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 Parties at the crib... Lil Jill Scott for the wine sipping sets.. Pfunk greatest hits(The bomb) for the live "booty shakin" crowd or BBQ's.. Prince's bootleg 'live in small club' for the ladies.. Marvin Gaye's greatest for the singers.. Trouble Funk mixed tape for the drummers.. Donny Hathaway live for the musicians.. Crusaders for the musicians.. Classic Santana for the musicians and the youth(teaching mode).. Stevie Ray Vaughn to impress my friends.. Remy Shan for the CD to take to sets at other people's house.. And of course.. The Best Of Special Ed(rap) For the ultimate 'Get your shit off' dance party...nothin betta! TROLL . . . ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Posted October 15, 2002 Author Share Posted October 15, 2002 One of my favorite joys is making new Little Feat fans... Anyone ever listen to Johny Guitar Watson?

Dan South Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I'm not a big fan, but I find that INXS is the ultimate late night party music. People always become lively when I put this on. Talking Heads or B-52's work well, also. The worst late night party albums are Floyd's Dark Side or anything by Neil Young, because everyone will crash within ten minutes if you play these. The Black Knight always triumphs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 Seriously, you should see the reaction when I put on; -Sgt. peppers. -the best of Mr. james brown. The GodFather of Soul is a given , but you should see people groove to Lovely Rita! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenElevenShadows Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 If we're talking about getting the energy going... various funk and disco compilations, including "Pure Funk", "Pure Disco", "Forward in Funk", Millenium Funk Party", "In Yo' Face", "The Funk Box" and other various comps, as well as the Prince Boxed Set and "Dirty Mind" and "Controversy". To be funny, a great thing to sneak in are a few cuts from "Cambodian Rocks",which features some really great high-energy psychedelic guitar tracks with high-pitched nasaly female singers singing in Cambodian. If we are talking about sittin' and chillin', then things like Scientist "Heavyweight Dub Champion", Bob Marley, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Future Sound of London "Lifeforms", King Tubby, The Orb, Eleven Shadows "Irian Jaya", and other stuff with a really cool, easy pulse is great.. If it's really late and I want to clear a room, Tibetan monks chanting, "OHM: The Early Gurus of Electronic Music", anything that's vaguely "lo-fi", or band rehearsal cassettes usually does the trick.
