Show #17: August 18 - September 3

Show #17!  I finally get a new mixer, and replace my old piece of crap one (with a new piece of crap!).  I'm still not firmly at the helm, so be gentle.  Lots of good songs in this episode, though, with a particular emphasis on the island sounds... a celebration of the independence of the Bahamas through funk, some quality reissues (Richard Stoute, Funky Nassau), and some generally great songs (Willie Hutch, Curtis Mayfield) round out this episode.  I also finally play the flipside to the opening music - the mighty Iron Leg.  Enjoy.
