Thanks!

I want to know that too. That's a GREAT instrumental by the way. People who claim Motown wasn't funky should check the instrumental out!!!

According to a post on YouTube, it was on a Earl Van Dyke album from 1969.

thanks guys!

Seems it´s only on that year by year cd, since it doesn´t appear on the Earl van Dyke 1970 album "The earl of funk". So it´s quite a rarity.
