The Just Brothers - Sliced Tomatoes (1998)

- The Just Brothers were the American musical duo of the brothers Jimmy and Frank Bryant and several session musicians. Their song "Sliced Tomatoes" was a dancefloor hit in 1972, and was sampled in Fatboy Slim's "The Rockafeller Skank." Living and recording in Detroit, their huge Northern Soul anthem, "Sliced Tomatoes" was almost an accidental throw away B side instrumental. I was the first DJ to ever play this record. When I started at Blackpool Mecca in late 1971, a very very young Tony Rounce picked up the single on Music Merchant and brought it up to me to play at The Mecca. At first everyone was sceptical, because it was quite different to the usual Northern Soul sound, and almost broke the norm, but then it went on to become such an anthem. Jimmy Bryant died many years ago, but Frank and A.J. very accurately recreated their classic for us for our award winning documentary, "The Strange World Of Northern Soul".

funk soul brother :D
How many people are here because of Fatboy Slim & how many because of B&Q I wonder?
Me - both!!!
B&Q via Fatboy Slim - I've heard the ad campaign multiple times, recognised the extract from the Fatboy Slim tune, then knowing he builds his tunes from samples of other tunes, headed to Wiki to find out which of the four samples was the tune B&Q used.
Meanwhile, I was introduced to Peter, Bjorn and John's Young Folks via their rivals Wickes' radio ads (although some of their latest ones seem to sample Noel Gallagher's Holy Mountain, which itself samples Chewing Gum Kid [the penny whistle hook]). It's amazing what music ads can introduce you to!
I'm here to represent everyone who have come from the B&Q adverts.
absolutely. That was where I got it from and also from Fat Boy Slim sampling.
Right about now, the Funk Soul Brother.
Check it now, The Funk Soul Brother
Thank you, Northern Soul KTF
This version sounds even better with the extra low bass sound towards the end.
i think this is a good piece of music for funky breakdancing

Fat Boy Slim Got it from this?
Yes I believe he did.
Ian, great you got the remaining members of this forgotten group together for this recut.
I always liked 'Carlena'!
Btw, I think you'll find it was various members of the Funk Brothers who played on the original 'Sliced Tomatoes', as they did on 'Carlena'.
This sound is crazy good.
