So don't you have no doubt, I'm gonna spell it out

I listened to this today because, of course, Questlove posted all the shiz about the Street Songs album. But, okay, it's this 7-minute live version of a song I never liked that's not even Rick's stuff, but god, is it a jam. 

Slick Levi and Lady T are exactly what I need when I get too into the work biz. Sheets? Who gives one? I don't.

I asked the faithful light

Bad news is everywhere. But at least the moon and Patti Labelle's whoop are constant, and good. Her improvisation about the loss of body parts starting around the 4:20 mark is riffing par fonky excellence.



Until today, I had no idea she/Labelle covered this song, nor of the album's existence. So this is a bright spot today. Thanks to the inimitable Questlove and his "Mai's Salon" playlist.

It would be cool to see the moon tonight. I doubt that will come to pass, but at least we know it's still up there.
