This is how we do it.

Yes it is Heatwave. You don't even know...

Now if you visit this blog often, you know that old school jams are more often than not posted under the "Old School Funk for the True Funk Soldiers" headline. But sometimes old school joints are so good, so well put together, so classic to a brotha, [see Montell Jordan's This is how we do it] that all I can do is marvel at their goodness as they boldly play on and show us how's it done. This jam, presented below, is one such example.

File this under one of my favorite old school/R&B/melodic/just straight up perfect jams of all time. This is due mostly to the fact that it just so happens to be one of the first songs I heard booming throughout my house as a child that stopped me dead in my tracks and just made me listen. So go on, press play, and revel in the magic. (Also, feel free to sing along if you got the lyrics down pat, as I am sure you already do...)

Heatwave.

Always & Forever.
