The Jet Setter – FMF Vol. 26

It’s Monday, and I hope all of you enjoyed your weekend. I did get a few days of digging in that uncovered some really great sides and a reissue of the infamous Boscoe record. Some of the coolest shit to ever come out of Chicago for sure. Here is a mix I had in the can for a while, and just got around to doing the drops to. It’s only a 10 song podcast, but the content is heavy brothers and sisters. I’m gonna send this mix out to my man Rickey Calloway, for getting in touch with me, and better yet hitting me off with some of his unreleased 45s. He is truly a gentleman and a great performer who needs to be supported. If you do not have any of the reissue sides from Kay-Dee, pick them up. It’s a dope label (no pun intended) with dope music on it of course.

For this Volume of FMF, I chose some heavy Funk hitters, some Sweet Soul, and a variety of other raw treats. I hope you enjoy this session as much as I did recording it. I’ll be live on the air at 91.7 WLFR on Thursday March 27th promoting Friday’s Asbury Park 45 Sessions with my homie Devil Dick and Jack the Ripper on DD’s Forward to the Caves Radio Show. His show is from 6-10 PM EST, we’ll be doing the last 2 hours from 8 ’til 10. Check us out on the live internet stream.

  1. Ah, and a bonus cut…with the “soul clap” on top of a funked up Motown groove…that makes my day for sure.
