Long-time Good Records NYC customer and homie Brian H. from California (and Philadelphia, briefly) has an awesome music & design blog that you should really check out called Dreams In Audio (www.dreamsinaudio.com) where his recent obsession with African music is getting represented lovely.
Brian has laced us with the following mix that is packing, well, a hell of a lot of that fire.
Track list below the fold.
The Eccentric Soul Review killed last night. Shame on you if you weren’t there!
Thanks to The Numero Group for putting it up, for JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound for laying it down, and to Renaldo Domino, The Notations, and Syl Johnson for knocking it out of the park. Er, the music hall.
Tonight, if you’re in NYC and looking for something to get into, you can’t do much better than my mans an nem Chairman Mao and Matthew Africa (from Oakland, CA! Town Biz, yadadadig?) at club APT for Mao’s Grand Groove monthly.
Apropos of Mr. Africa’s visit, everyone interested in good music and writing about it should make a point of visiting and bookmarking Matthew’s great blog I Wish You Would.
In other news, we’re still retooling the website… ugh… new arrivals are hitting the store with frightening speed… and we’ve got some more big things up our sleeve for the spring, so stay tuned.
Be safe and have a wonderful weekend! Go Pacquiao!
If you know like I know, you’re braving the weather to catch the Eccentric Soul Review’s only New York City appearance.
Syl Johnson, Renaldo Domino, The Notations… a who’s who of classic Chi-Town soul. All backed impeccably by JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound.
Buy tickets through ticketmaster, at the Mercury Lounge, or at the door… hope to see you there!
