Marcia Griffiths’ “Electric Slide” Featured In New @SheHulkOfficial Episode!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Watched any good TV shows this week? Earlier this week, Marvel’s new series “She-Hulk: Attoryney At Law” debuted a new episode. The Comedy/Action series focuses on Jennifer Walters, who is a Lawyer who specializes in Superhero cases, and ends up becoming a Superhero herself called, “She-Hulk“. In the newest episode, a familiar Jamaican song was featured.

During episode 6 of “She-Hulk” called “Just Jen“, Reggae Legend Marcia Griffiths’ 1989 hit, “Electric Slide” was featured during the episode’s fight scene between She-Hulk and her rival Mary MacPherran a.k.a. Tatiana. Originally called “Electric Boogie” which was recorded and produced by the late Bunny Wailer in 1976, and released in 1980 and 1989, “Electric Slide” lived a few lives over the years. While it was a minor hit for Wailer in the late 70s and 80s, Marcia Griffiths’ 1983 version of the record was released and became a minor hit as well. It wasn’t until 1989 when a remixed version that was featured on Griffiths’ “Carousel” album quickly made it a dance staple around the world. The new version gave birth to the “Electric Slide” dance, which became the official dance for cookouts, family gatherings, Weddings, and various celebrations and events over the years.

If you haven’t seen it yet, “She-Hulk: Attorney At Law” is available for viewing now on Disney+.

OLDIES SUNDAY: @BigMountainBand – Baby I Love Your Way (1994)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s another Oldies Sunday, where we highlight a few classics, and old school songs you’ve never heard before. For today’s selection, we fly over to San Diego, California to check out Reggae Band Big Mountain’s “Baby I Love Your Way“.

Produced by Ron Fair, this was released in 1994 through Giant/RCA. Big Mountain’s “Baby I Love Your Way” was a remake of the Peter Frampton’s 1975 single. The remake had a Reggae vibe, which contrasted from the original’s Soft Rock sound. Big Mountain’s version enjoyed chart success peaking at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, #2 on the UK Singles Chart, and #1 in Denmark, Spain, and Sweden. The track was included in the soundtrack for the 1994 Rom-Com, “Reality Bites“, and went on to go Platinum in Australia, Silver in the UK, and Gold in the US. The track was featured in Big Mountain’s 3rd album, “Unity“, and remains one of their biggest songs. They also performed the song at Reggae Sunsplash, as they were booked in 1994, and 1995.

Since the release of “Baby I Love Your Way”, Big Mountain went on to release more singles and albums, and continues to remain active performers taking their music to various parts of the world.

Thank You Big Mountain For This Classic!
