I think you missed the connection between "Roll With Me" and bounce music. To me, that is probably one of the reasons this song is a classic - because it basically is a bounce second-line song.

Tuta, you make a good point. But once you bring that up, you have to explain what bounce is. And who Jubilee is.  And what "Trigger Man" is. Etc. There might be five to ten people reading this who have any idea what you’re talking about.
