Description:

Released on Motown in 1967, “Hip City” is a driving, uptempo track that emphasizes Junior Walker’s rough-edged saxophone as the centerpiece of the groove. The rhythm section pushes a funk-inflected backbeat, with sharp horn punctuations and energetic guitar riffs adding to the urgency of the track.

Walker’s saxophone leads the charge, weaving between riffs and improvised flourishes that make the song feel spontaneous yet tightly arranged. It’s a quintessential example of Walker’s mid-’60s work, where Motown polish meets street-level funk energy.
