Also all those who have heard the tambourine mix for "Funky Drummer" have the deepest regrets for what could have been if Ketchup Lady had been there.

Anthropologists: humans are slowing loosing their pinky's through evolution due to lack of use Blake Mills: hold my volume knob

[@dr0ppazeti68]

Is that a real thing ? lol

[@Vashtanerada477]

Dr0PPA ZETI To answer your question, I doubt it. Traits don’t just disappear due to disuse, that’s not how genetics works. I’m not an anthropologist (Biochemist who has studied evolutionary biology tho) but the whole “we’re not using it so it’s disappearing” thing implies an intentionality to evolution that isn’t there. I’m sure that if some kind of mutation were to arise that caused 1% of babies to be born sans pinkies that the trait wouldn’t be selected *out* per se (selection pressure for humanity as a whole has p much disappeared), but for humans to start “losing their pinkies” would require some kind of selection pressure that would render the lack of a pinky somehow advantageous to propagating one’s genes over the presence of a pinky. Also, I’m really not convinced that we’re somehow using our pinkies less than we were thousands of years ago. We’re still gripping things and holding them. Honestly with the advent of typing I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re using our pinkies MORE now than we were thousands of years ago.

[@aaaponte0613]

@@Vashtanerada477 Interesting thank you!

[@HBCrigs]

Since we're all turned on by it, it may in fact be an evolutionary advantage to use your pinky when shredding

Rest in peace dear Pastor Sandra ! You are missed 💔💔💔💔

Just heard of Ms. Crouch’s passing and came here to pay my respects by watching in awe one of the greatest tambourine performances ever recorded

[@patrickohaodha8743]

"Sandra Crouch just shreds in a total league of her own"

[@DweebsUnited]

Whoever mixed this absolutely killed it. 3 guitars, a bass, a tambourine, and a drummer, and yet you can hear each and every one of them. Absolutely phenomenal

[@yaboi-km2qn]

read the description

[@TheThingattheEndoftheBook]

I just stumbled across this channel today! From what I gather, it's some sort of research program devoted to finding out whether it is physically possible for a piece of music to be simply too damn funky to exist? I wish you luck in your efforts and will continue to enjoy the by-products of your experiments. I would dearly love to be there as well, ready to dive head-first into the Funk Dimension when y'all finally succeed in grooving your way through the very fabric of reality.

[@mint-flavouredsand8943]

The Thing at the End of the Book It’s almost the Funk Nirvana

[@Rbrgr83]

You can study further research into this topic with Vulfpeck's It Get's Funkier series. They came to the conclusion that on at least 3 separate occasions, they were in fact able to somehow get funkier. Although the most recent attempt did require assistance from the percussive subject matter expert Louis Cole.

[@atomdecay]

​@@Rbrgr83yeah, I've given up trying to decide between Louis & Nate & just accepted the funk.

[@KevinOMusic]

The camera never pans down because Blake Mills' feet would take up the entire shot!

[@willduperier]

Blake Mills. A 31 year old legend. He’ll go down as one of the greats.

[@star_vars_]

May I know any more of his songs? I can't find any with a tone similar to this song.

[@Xavier----]

@@star_vars_ "if i'm unworthy" might suit you

[@koekoekwarrior]

For those who don't know yet, this is a Stevie Wonder cover, however, it sounds more like the version from another forgotten great 70s funk band called 'Stuff'. If you like Vulf, you've got the check them out.

[@brotatoe3299]

It is but its also a love letter to theo. The changes sound kinda like "brooklyn"

[@oldgoat381]

Yeah Sandra Crouch is one of the most prolific tambourine players of the 20th century She has been on albums that have gone gold and platinum

[@mo0omo]

Slap that guitar. It's been bad

[@michaelthibodeau7589]

Joe Dart is indeed BAD...

[@purushswaminathan5693]

that style of guitar - T-style neck with strat body is literally called a "mischiefmaker" 😂

[@sg1770]

Purushotham Kaushik Swaminathan it’s a coodercaster too. With a guyatone instead of a tiesco

[@thepieromancers7090]

What a peculiar guitar. Strat body, tele neck and head, yoinked the middle pickup

[@camillephilippon9594]

That's a coodercaster. First assembled by Ry Cooder. Note the slide guitar pickups, the 3 position (telly) switch and the volume knob for both pickups at the pinky to emulate a volume pedal. Edit: yes its a tellys neck; the table needs to be flat for the slide.

[@mortenkeiser-nielsen7311]
