Oh yeah Grand Funk did do Some Kind Of Wonderful. That's bluesy alright. I prefer the earlier material though, when Mel had the mudbucker in his Jazz bass. Nice rendition from John Ellison there Uwe.
Here's a tune off an album I just picked up from an old shop in Lowell, MA. It's 89' and that's kinda classic from my perspective. Hamp is classic. He's backed up by some young lions here, notably Anthony Jackson who is laying it down solid and simple. Hamp is the one who steals the performance when his solo comes around. Listen for a man in his 80s expressing a lifetime of experience. That's good ole' classic blues to me.
