Mantra - Doin It To The Bone

Larry Blackmon Production from 1981

[@SingleWing]

WOW! I wrote this song in 1978. Haven't heard it for a while. Hearing it now on KZbin makes me think about the girl I wrote it about. Wonder where she is now. I appreciate all of your comments. Thanks.

Dr. J.S. Great-House hi my name is Paul and I would just like to know how was it recording this in the studio with one of the greatest producer Larry Blackman and how was it to have him and Anthony locket to help you arrange music to it

[@pauldaniel5119]

Dr. J.S. Great-House by the way this song is very funky you are dope

[@eddievance7674]

Dr. J.S. Great-House you did your thang

[@KeithCopeland778]

This is a classic groove from back in the day. Very cool bass line!!! I forgot who the bass player was on this track.

[@MaxG_47]

Thank you for this incredible jam sir. Peace!

[@brutisque]

Got that Nasty C-A-M-E-O sound! Back in the day was a great mix w/Your Love Takes Me Out!

[@wisenatts]

Finding this album in mint condition and on vinyl would be like striking gold.

[@richfunk266]

Sean Forde I’m lucky enough to have the Album in mint condition 😀

[@julianromero3003]

@@richfunk266 i have thjs album in mint condition too. I bought it at Ghetto records in the late 90's.

[@mjsapien]

I have several New Copies still in plastic... It helps when your step-dad is in the band. LOL

[@Dirtyvinyl23]

@@mjsapien That’s amazing seeing that there aren’t that many sealed copies of this album in circulation. What do you intend doing with them? Furthermore, a lot of these type of funk albums are being reissued now.

[@mjsapien]

@@Dirtyvinyl23 The albums we have are in safe keeping. Family heirlooms so to speak. It would be nice to see a reissue of this album. I plan on recording the album and burning it to a disc.

[@brownduck7924]

hey. i got it on tape. 8-track that is.its been taped and cut then put back together again so many times i doubt if it will even play!

[@sadepeter]

A good base lick always get me every time !! This song was tattooed in my brain since 1981 !! Does anyone know who this bass player is ?? Sounds like Aaron Mills. Whoever this base player is earned my respect.

[@richfunk266]

Folasade Oluwafemi: Eric Alexander played bass & background vocals on this excellent album

[@saladaps]

Great!

[@kgmckool]

I HAD THIS ALBUM,CAMEO BASS LINE!

[@richardhill351]

Love it ! Still got the album 😀

[@producent22]

rewelacja!!!

[@wezzhunte3440]

Ultra funk,,

[@myfunkyway9]

the 1st 58sec. funky

[@Neosoulgroovydude]

If u like Cameo & Larry Blackmon productions,Mantra,L.a. Connection,Howard Kenney,Cashflow,and Tomi Jenkins' solo album are good finds! Cameo was on fire with the naked funk in the 80's. Maybe someday these long out of print albums will be reissued.

[@unclefunkyd.6040]

Neosoulgroovydude Slapback and Barbra Mitchell

[@unclefunkyd.6040]

Do any one have their Soul Train performance with Cameo

[@mjsapien]

I doubt you will find a CD. It was never produced on one. My step-dad is(was) in the band. We have some brand new albums in storage. I have converted the music to my ipod...

[@rerob52]

Hot !!! 1

[@lucdenebadon]

GOOD

[@TheRhythmdee]

This jam still sounds so damn good!

[@valerianoscerna2644]

YUPPPPPPPPPPPP....YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS....FUNKKKKKKKKK

[@peacefulblonde39]

I would love to purchase a album or the songs for my ipod. ;)

[@wisenatts]

Nice funky bass which has cameo stamped all over it. I think they had something to do it. Boy, don't make music like this anymore. The art of slapped bass playing is dying out nowadays - bring back the funk and nothing but the funk!

[@Ampdriver]

Could you PLEASE post PROMISE ME by this Band LOVE it THANK YOU.
