“You/Thank You”
Williams Brothers
From the Blackberry CD: The Williams Brothers: LIVE at Hard Rock (2011)
www.blackberryrecords.com
The Williams Brothers are their deliciously funky, soulful Mississippi quartet selves on this medley, a singular expression of gratitude to God for His willingness to “open doors I could not see.” The punchy brass section sounds borrowed from Earth, Wind & Fire.
The song ends, and quite appropriately so, it turns out, with the sing-along chorus of Sly and the Family Stone’s “Thank You Falletinme Be Mice Elf Agin.”
