You've described almost every EW&F song ever made. Check out Amazon, they have clips of songs you can listen to.

Well, that's specific.

On the bright side, I've now got "September" bouncing around in my head.

Shining Star - Didn't Sly and Family Stone do that or was it a cover?

I think you want the band, War.

They were a stellar 70's horn, funk, R & B band with enigmatic hits such as "Low Rider", "The Cisco Kid", "Slippin Into Darkness", "The World is A Ghetto", "Why Can't We Be Friends?", and a host of other hits.

The only CD you would need to buy is their collection, "The Very Best of War" which came out a couple of years ago. It's an excellent retrospective of the underrated band. But, they have a lot of horns and instrumental jamming with some fun songs.

Otherwise, I'd check out Sly & The Family Stone, Funkadelic, Parliament, or maybe even Maceo Parker. But, I think War is what you're looking for.

I think you're describing Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire".

Either that, or "Also Sprach Zarathustra". Does the song start like this? Edit: heck, for some reason the file won't attach. That's annoying.
