"SOUL FINGER" THE BAR-KAYS (1967)

If you’re an 80’s child, chances are you can’t think of Soviet missile control personnel parties without remembering this song. Spies Like Us’ unforgettable scene went back a couple of decades to uncover this instrumental soul fest. Overly simple and repetitious, “Soul Finger” checks two boxes for likeability. First, it’s infectious. The kind of song you can’t get out of your head even if you tried. Second, it’s nostalgiac, whether you grew up in the 60’s or in the 80’s.
