In honor of Black History Month, Yellow Snow and @HillsboroDuck are pleased to announce a Battle of the Bands featuring 32 of the greatest soul, R&B, and funk artists of the past 60 years. I handled seeding the 60’s and 70’s and @HillsboroDuck took the reins for the 80s the present to keep us out of the mud. There were some tough calls no doubt to get this whittled down to 32 artists and if you don’t like our judgments here, well then F.O. Poles will open very soon.

Ok, Round 1 of the 1960's is up. Poles will stay open for a few days on each round. I aim to have Round 1 of the 1970's up by tomorrow and maybe the 1980's as well.

Have any of you seen the bootleg video of Stevie Wonder's 1973 show in Seattle?

No. Please to be posting. I've seen plenty of his 1973 stuff on YouTube though. I felt pretty strongly about him as the clear #1 seed for the 1970's.Baseman said:Have any of you seen the bootleg video of Stevie Wonder's 1973 show in Seattle?
