Video: Mayer Hawthorne "Henny & Gingerale"

Michigan-bred soulcat (and closet boogie expert--you should hear his DJ sets) Mayer Hawthorne does the well-known makers of fine 'gnacs (not to mention Canada Dry!) a super-solid look with this boogie-ish tribute to his favorite cocktail. Sounds a lot like the mood and groove from Marvin Gaye's "Got To Give It Up"--if that party in the background was an actual happening, instead of just a loop of a Don Cornelius and Marvin's little sister Zeola Gaye going "heyyyy" in Motown's studios (true story). Hmm, kinda makes you want to hit stop and go have have yourself a time (exit, stage left).
