Horniest Song of the 60's/70's???

[MiddleRiverRefugee]

Inspired by the "Lucretia MacEvil" thread.
"Horniest" is defined here as "possessing a killer horn section".

[arwalden]

1. Love To Love You Baby ... and...

Love Won't Let Me Wait

[bicentennial_baby]

4. Second vote for

Love to Love You Baby...that's gotta be the horniest song of the 70s at least.

[liberalpress]

30. That's it..

"Love Won't Let Me Wait" by Major Harris. World's best makeout song.

2. Tonight's the Night

Rod Stewart..

[radwriter0555]

3. Afternoon Delight...

some bad disco band one hit wonder.....

[booksenkatz]

5. Big Chicago fan here

I voted for "other" because I think that "Beginnings" may be a bit hornier than "25 or 6 to 4" (which is so guitar heavy), but I could be wrong. I'll listen to both this morning and decide, LOL! I could listen to Pankow and Parazaider all day long.

BTW, I love everything Chicago did up until Kath died, and after that they went soft and sucked, IMO. Kath was the true soul and innovator of that group.

on edit: I thought he wanted us to talk about songs with strong horn sections, as opposed to sexually horny songs?
:shrug:

23. On the nose, patsified...Kath drove that band.

They used to be so POLITICAL, too!

[GumboYaYa]

6. "Rock n Roll" by Zeppelin.

Been long, lonely, lonely time.........

[DarkPhenyx]

7. I say "Super Freak" by Rick James.

Horns or horny. It hits the mark on both issues.

[fertilizeonarbusto]

8. For Gawd's sake

ANYTHING by the late great Barry White!

[arwalden]

9. Barry White Is DEAD??

Really??

[bicentennial_baby]

10. Yes, unfortunately

From 7/4/03:

"(CBS/AP) Velvet-voiced R&B crooner Barry White, renowned for his lush baritone and lyrics that oozed sex appeal on songs such as "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe," died Friday morning, his manager said.

White, who had suffered kidney failure from years of high blood pressure, died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center around 9:30 a.m., said manager Ned Shankman. He was 58.

White had been undergoing dialysis treatment and had been hospitalized since last September."

[MiltonLeBerle]

25. which Barry White songs have horn arrangements?

I can't think of any.

[MiddleRiverRefugee]

11. I had to vote for an Other myself...

"Late in the Evening" by Paul Simon.

One of the best horn arrangements, ever. IMHO.

[ProfessorGAC]

33. Hey UIBP!

Can't believe you forgot "Get It On" by Chase. Now that song had some horns on it.

That cascading horn section fall at the end of the bridge is one of the coolest things in the whole of the 70's. And those guys could rock pretty hard for jazz dudes.

Funny side note: When we were doubling the size of our PA, we got a deal at an auction on a couple of 2000 series JBL horns. (No drivers, just horns.) They belonged to Bill Chase!

So, obviously i have a dual reason for remembering that band.

13. Can't believe you missed "Strokin' " by Clarence Carter

"We be strokin' "

That's just nothing but 3 minutes of pure horndog.

[boilerbabe]

32. Horn-Dog but no Horns n/t

[arwalden]

14. "SQUEEZEBOX."... Absolutely HORRIBLE too!!

[commander bunnypants]

16. Status Quo: "Roll Over Lay Down and Let Me In"

:evilgrin:

[kcwayne]

17. Make Me Smile - Chicago

Kick ass horns, drums, vocals, and solo guitar lead....

[booksenkatz]

20. Good choice!

I thought of that one after I'd suggested "Beginnings." I think you might be right. But the end of "Beginnings" just knocks me out, I wish it'd go on forever.

(BTW, do you get the feeling that there are TWO conversations going on in this thread??)

[kcwayne]

21. Two Threads

Definitely. Apparently the inability to read closely is not an affliction only for freepers.

[MissMillie]

18. Jefferson Airplane

Miracles


not just horny, but pretty racy for it's time.

19. Do You Wanna Dance?

By Bette Middler. I think it was late 70s.

[Richardo]

22. "Down to the Nightclub" - Tower of Power

"...Bumpty-bumpty-bump. Bump City!" :D :thumbsup:



...and most other TofP songs - tightest horn section EVER, even live.

[DoYouEverWonder]

24. No one remembers the Fugs?

I'm horny
Horny, horny, horny.

You can't get any more horny than that.

I believe it was off of their "It Crawled Into My Hand, Honest" album.

26. "Horniest" vs. "Horn-iest"

Hmm-for "Horn-iest" I would go with "Twenty-five or Six to Four" by Chicago, or "Spinning Wheel" by BS and T. For "Horniest" I might recommend "Right Time of the Night" by Jennifer Warren. And, not to be picky, but "Do You Wanna Dance" was first done by Bobby Freeman back in the fifties, and then redone by Maria Muldauer.

[boilerbabe]

31. Spinning wheel n/t

[Redbear]

27. "Pick Up The Pieces"

by Average White Band

With nods to:

"Jungle Boogie" Kool & the Gang

"Sir Duke" Stevie Wonder

[BiggJawn]

28. Anything by "Tower of Power"...

Ooooh, that Oakland Sound!

[noonwitch]

29. Paradise By The Dashboard Light by Meatloaf

I love that song

[DemExpat]

34. Je t'aime...moi non plus - Jane Brikin/Serge Gainsbourg

This song embarrassed me as a young lass in the late 60s.....

35. Bend It - Dave, Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich

Bend it, bend it, just a little bit and
take it easy, show you're likin' it,
and lover, you know that we're gonna hit
the heights, 'cos I'm sure that we're made to fit
together just like pieces of a
jigsaw puzzle, what's the hustle

Bend it, bend it, just a little more,
without you, baby, I'm so insecure,
but you can make me feel that I am sure,
I've got a sickness only you can cure,
so just relax, there's stacks of time, but honey,
please don't tease me, try to please me.
Oh, yeah, that's good , oh, yes, ah,yes.
+ repeat verse 1 +

Bend it, bend it, just a little bit and
take it easy, show you're likin' it, and ah, show me now,
yeah, that's right, ah,oh yeah, yeah, that's right,
c'mon now, right right right.
