In our never-ending quest to improve Microkhan Jr.’s rudimentary dancing skills, we’ve recently had to call out the big gun—the oeuvre of the Godfather of Soul.

Well worth your two minutes, as is the rest of the poster’s channel—particularly this Archie Bell & The Drells clip from way back when.

Wow. I think the PCP-era James Brown might’ve opted for that one.
