Try his Cinderella Liberty track - Wednesday Special (with some Paul Williams vocals).

The singer/songwriter or the guy from the Temptations?

Just listened. Not funk in the least. The track has a triplet feel, while funk uses straight eighth notes.

Okay, but again with Cinderella Liberty........try Neptune's Bar.

I can't think of another score where Williams gets close to Funk, unless there's a source cue he wrote. Hopefully, someone will come up with a better track.

Kinda sounds like a funky version of The Towering Inferno Main Title! Perhaps an inside joke?

Here's another brief one -- begins at the 57 second mark...




And I know you're not big on Williams' Spielberg scores, Onya -- but you might like Williams' distinctly 1970s arrangement of his Close Encounters music...

Why would OnyaBirri wish to listen to an ass whose music is bad?

I just couldn't think of any JW 70s cop-show-styled funk stuff, so I'm glad it is out there! And Williams is not an ass! wink

Didn't understand what this cue was supposed to be doing exactly until hearing the hit music from "Shaft" and realized it is a playful variation piece for Richard Roundtree.

It must be a boot, Onya. There was never an official full release as far as I know. All those great tracks from CINDERELLA LIBERTY are on the LP/CDs. Be careful though if your house is a harmonica-free zone - there's a lot of harmonica in the score, although I think even you might bow down before the greatness of Toots Thielemans' tooting away on some absolutely great JW-penned jazz tracks.

Yes, I almost picked this up from the dollar bin, but I went on YouTube and the harmonica scared me.

I do recognize Toots' abilities, both as guitarist with the George Shearing Quintet, and also as harmonica player on Quincy Jones' funky early 70s LPs!

Toots is also famous for playing the hamonica on the Midnight Cowboy soundtrack.
