    Rules:

    40 rounds. No more extensions.

    You may pick only pick one song from a given artist. Parliament and Funkadelic count as separate artists. Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 count as separate artists.

    Blues, jazz, rock, and reggae songs are not eligible. Rap songs may be eligible based on backing music. Anything with "influences of soul and funk" is fine.

    If there is a question about the eligibility of a pick, it is up to the questioner to raise the issue and discuss why he thinks the pick should not be eligible. If the questioner and the picker cannot resolve their difference of opinion, the matter will go to a vote of all drafters. Other picks can be made while this is going on.

    There is no clock, but please be mindful of when it is your turn and pick as promptly as you can. Those who do not pick for an excessively long time will be skipped.

        The fam cut me some slack, provided I made Marvin my first pick. So there you have it.

          If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                  2.01 Back Stabbers - The O'Jays (1972)



                  The peak of Philly soul, amazing arrangement and orchestration. But it was a scary and dark song when I was a kid. Every time the guy leaves his house, all of his friends go over to bang his wife! Again and again!

                            2.06 Try a Little Tenderness - Otis Redding (1966)

                            A lot of people before and after performed this song, but Otis made it his own. His version is definitive and one of the first things I think of when "soul music" is mentioned.
