Back to Business!

Show #52 - a big mix of funk & soul & jazz!  Some great tunes in the mix this week - the opening set is shorter songs, with a stong influence of funk - from the Senegalese band Orchestre du Bawobab to Kool and the Gang, to Lee Dorsey, the opening set is movin'!  It concludes with a classic Fontella Bass track 'Rescue Me', which I then use to segue into the 2nd half, which opens with the Art Ensemble of Chicago's fiery 'Theme de Yoyo' with Fontella Bass on vocals in a completely different style.  "Your eyes are like two blind eagles who kill what they can't see"!  Then there's the inimitiable Leon Thomas, and a percussion heavy number by Ghanean band Hedzoleh Soundz.  Lots of different styles in this show, check it out!
