After a long weekend of digging, I had the urge to put another mix out. I had originally planned to work on an all Latin Mix that I’ve been putting together, as well as another 12″ Hip Hop Mix, but I had some great sides just waiting to be heard, and I couldn’t wait any longer. This is a short mix, but I think that the name says it all: Free For All. It really is. What good is digging for all this lost vinyl if you can’t share it with anyone? This volume we have a classic hip hop sampled track, a few really great Soul Jazz organ sides, the funkiest artist ever on Impulse! Records, a pop tune with a great drum break, and a handful of Sweet Soul to round it off. Start your week off right with Fleamarket Funk and Volume 22, Free For All. I’ll be back on Wednesday with a track from this very mix. Thanks to Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers for the cover art inspiration.
