Go to WFMU and come home with more books than records. That really happened once. Got this gem from @lpcoverlover and have been trying to get all the records in it ever since. Who's holding? re: @hakstao you know the deal
Can't always be about records! Despite the unusually humid and scorching weather, here we find the Dad in his natural habitat. After a long day of yelling at fish, loud families disturbing him fishing, broken lines, deep cuts from fishing lines and finally catching the biggest smallmouth bass he's ever caught, he returns to his home made fire pit and delivers on the promise of a BBQ in said fire pit. After an hour of attempting to get the fire started, he does what any Dad would do, goes to the nearest supermarket and buys a Duraflame and get this: dry wood. Crisis solved, beer drank, mouths fed. Then he waits four hours until the damn thing goes out.
Rainy morning sounds. Great reissue of "The Call" from @outernationalsounds of this 1978 scorcher from Horace Tapscott Conducting The Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra. 2019
Dellinger & King Tubby: Jah Jah Dub
Early on, some tried to turn me on to Zappa. I remember being a teen and hearing Crew Slut and Yellow Snow and being like, what is this? My buddy was deep into the Mothers and Zappa and my musical palate wasn't ready. Fast forward ..
Oh when the @wax_poetics arrives...Hello Patrice Rushen.
