The Message

Camp Lo were awesome. They shout out Shalamar at the start of the show. Shalamar is fresh too. So we're on the good foot. This one has the jazz, hip hop, soul, and reggae all mixed together and it works. I got a nice Dancehall block in there too.

Heed the Words of the Brother

In tribute to Gil Scott Heron, and on a lovely Memorial Day weekend, our friend DJ Brawny headed to the studio with a batch of mp3s and an armful of vinyl.

Ice Cream Man

This show has soul: classic Atlantic Soul, Daptone soul, I can't believe it's not neo-Soul, Northern Soul, Soul Jazz, Quantic Soul Orchestra. Soul for days 50 minutes. The cherry on top is 10 minutes of up-tempo 90s hip hop anthems. Aretha is here. Naughty By Nature, Badu, UMC's and Grant Green are here. It's going to be a great show.

Sandwiches

This show is sure to ignite the blogosphere.

A block of 90s hip hop nestled like lettuce tomato and onion in thick slices of funk.

Main Event

There's no theme here. This show is not an event. This show has music from Greggory Isaacs, Marvin Gaye, the Jungle Brothers, Booker T and the MGs, Lou Donaldson and Jurassic 5. Add one heady public service announcement and you know what I take it back. This show is an event.

Classic hip-hop, rare soul gems, funky sample sources. All in a breezy February evening hour of Right On Radio. No theme, just some nice laid back music to bump from the Ford Escort, or your jalopy of choice as you unwind from the hustle.

Best of 2010

In 2010, I needed a dollar and a window seat, I was walking such a tightrope. But I learned the hard way that it aint my fault, I just gotta hit em up style in the sunshine like Michael Knight. There are a few more sweet song titles I'd incorporate into this post if I were more clever. In summation, this is the best music of 2010!

I must acknowledge the clumsy start to the show, due to a confusing transition. In my dreams, I have the time to go back and edit it. In reality, let it be another adventure in endearing community radio.
