It's My Thing (LP)

It's My Thing is the second LP recorded by American funk singer Marva Whitney, who was "Soul Sister #1" of the James Brown Revue from 1967 to 1969. It was first released during her last year of working with Brown, who produced the album, wrote or co-wrote most of the tunes, and even sings a duet with Whitney on "You Got to Have a Job." Marva Whitney shines on all tempos, each of them extraordinarily funky, all of them sources for hip hop sampling, making Marva a Soul Sister for all generations.  Her vocals and elements from "It's My Thing" have been sampled in hundreds of Hip-Hop songs.  DJ Mark The 45 King sampled "Unwind Yourself" for "The 900 Number," which Ed Lover turned into his dance theme song on YO! MTV Raps.  Tracklist:  A1        It's My Thing (Part 1) A2        It's My Thing (Part 2) A3        Things Got To Get Better (Get Together) A4        What Kind Of Man A5        If You Love Me A6        In The Middle B1        Unwind Yourself B2        You Got To Have A Job B3        I'll Work It Out B4        Get Out Of My Life B5        I'm Tired, I'm Tired, I'm Tired B6        Shades Of Brown
