Self reply, but Ohio/Machine Gun is such a powerful song. The lyrics, melodic guitar, beautiful solos and then when the “machine gun” section comes, just wow. I know it’s CSN but love this version so much.

I went through Rick James’s discography a couple of years ago. Lots of fire funk in there.

Sooo much. I found Reflections on vinyl for $2 and it is without a doubt my prized score.

Such a huge moment in Napoleon’s growth. I strongly believe that finding that VHS dance tape at the thrift store was the key to Napoleon’s success. Had he not learned those sweet dance moves, he never would have had the confidence to tell off Uncle Rico or save Pedro’s campaign.
