Has anyone made a football-themed boogie mix? I don't have enough songs for a solid mix yet but maybe with help from readers we can put one together. Here is one quality track recorded by five members of the San Diego Chargers in 1981. To me there are two strong tracks on their LP with lyrics that could be about romance or football. If you are down to participate please drop a comment with your favorite (quality) boogie tracks made by football players or about football. Please no "Superbowl Shuffle".

do the Go Raiders chants at the end of "E.T. Where R.U." make it football related enough for this theoretical mix?

ReplyDeleteYou might need to go wider and do a sport-related boogie mix. That gives you about a dozen basketball jams (Dr. Jam, Mighty Fire - Take it to the Hoop, Kurtis Blow - Basketball etc) the NY Mets 'Metsmerise' Chicago Bears 'Superbowl Shuffle'...
ReplyDeletere: the raiders chant: yeah I love that George Semper LP I would definitely work some of that in. I think that is my favorite football related 80s synth soul LP.

Well, you can take any track by D-Train (the lead vocalist got the nickname "D-Train" as a high-school football player).
