I've not shared this for a while, but the summer heat has turned me on!
Here's my blurb for the original release:
1. Funkadelic - Free Your Mind and Your Ass Will Follow
This seemed the perfect sentiment with which to kick off the mix and comes from a totally 'out there' album, apparently recorded within 24hrs while the band were completely off their nut. Not an unusual occurrence in those days but 'Free Your Mind…' took funk into another, heavier dimension.
2. Frankie Valli - Grease
From 1978 and one of my first musical memories. It's been so overplayed and hijacked by the tacky Saturday night Karaoke brigade one forgets how good the music actually is. Fantastically warm production which conjures up many good memories and a few desperate ones of my futile search for a fly leather jacket and Yale cardigan.
3. Michael Jackson - PYT
I recently dug this out to play at Cafe Mambo Ibiza and felt the atmosphere lift immediately as soon as it dropped. The groove is sooo tight ...
