and a bouncy comp from the good folks at Rhino, back when Rhino mattered:

Is it a racist stereotype the black women have big butts or even that black men like women with big butts ?

He likes big butts and he cannot lie.

Great. Now I have that song stuck in my head. Bump bump bumpadump.

Guess what song is stuck in Hank's head?

Note to Jimbo: I recommend the tushie as the next Friday List topic.

Hey Ven: We did a "Naughty Bits" Friday List (incl. rear ends) 'bout a year-and-a-half ago. Too soon for a reprise.

Bummer -- I'd forgotten that. Oh well, I suppose it didn't hurt to assk.

No more cracks like that, okay Vennie? Stop being cheeky.

Jimmy Castor Bunch's 'Bertha Butt Boogie' is good natured '70s fun (and the last part of the "caveman trilogy" that included 'Troglodyte [Cave Man]' and 'Luther The Anthropoid').

Yeah, I've heard "Troglodyte" as well, I think. Didn't know about "Luther the Anthropoid". I think my JCB tracks are on Rhino's Didn't it Blow Your Mind soul CD comp series, an excellent companion series to the Have a Nice Day series. Rhino really compiled some excellent series. I'm even thinking of getting their punk DIY series.

God, I hate crappy puns...

I had the single way back when - actually, I went through several copies from Sears. The bass made them all skip at the same spot. I think it was four or five copies before I finally gave up. But I did hear it on XM a few months back, and it gave me quite a chuckle.

"Luther The Anthropoid (Ape Man)" was the less successful follow up to "Troglodyte (Cave Man" (and it also appeared on the JCB's 2nd LP "Phase Two" in 1972) so many people don't remember it.
