USTA Pro Circuit: Paul Todd and Jarmere Jenkins Reach Doubles Final In Texas
One minute tasty thing (instant groove)
Technology has really afforded anyone with just a little computer savvy to record music a variety of different ways, very quickly. I was cleaning up my external drive and came across a little sumthin’ I threw together just as I was finishing lunch at home one day, getting ready to head back in to the office (took me about 5 mins to do in Logic Express 7.2, Powerbook G4). Check it out…
There u have it….yummy.

lyman woodard organisation – saturday night special
Filed under: Podcasts, Soul/R&B, SoulSites, SoulTrackin'
detroit is best known for the motown sound but after the success of motown there were thousands of young musicians in detroit looking for jobs
dave hamilton was maybe the most famous producer/musician, well known for his dirty fuzzed out deep funk tunes and his sweet soul
originally released in 1975 this album features soulful jazz grooves played by lyman woodard, who began his career playing the piano but switched to organ after hearing jimmy smith, plus norma bell (alt sax), lorenzo brown (percussion), ron english (electric guitar, bass), leonard king (drums, vocals), charles moore (triangle) and bud spangler (percussion)
in full cooperation with lyman woodard and strata records, the fine people at wax poetics have remastered the original tapes for a 2 lp vinyl re-release of this sought after gem, so now you don’t have to spend $200 for a beat-up copy
the break/bassline in the middle of this song should sound familiar if you consider yourself a crate digger and beat head
the 180gram heavy vinyl double album, limited to 1500 hand numbered copies, will be available on march 23
pre-order your copy right now on the wax poetics website or on the hhv website

JOHNNY KEMP – JUST GOT PAID (FRIDAY NIGHT)
Filed under: Podcasts, Soul/R&B, SoulSites, SoulTrackin'
This is the song that you start singing on Friday but you never know exactly who sings this. Johnny Kemp is his name and I don’t remember him. Hell, I was surprise that he was even on soultrain and had a video to the song. Than again Chaka Khan has a sister “Taka Boom” that had a video therefore I am never surprise with the music industry. Love the song though! HAPPY FRIDAY!

It couldn’t really have been the way I remember it. The year 1976 couldn’t have been the continuous parade of great memories I’d prefer to recall. And it wasn’t. Some of my friends let me down in ways that still sting all these years later. I had no interest in …

All That Jazz: In Celebration of Jazz Appreciation Month
I don’t talk about my love for jazz enough on this blog so I figure jazz appreciation month is the perfect time to do so. I have to admit that my knowledge is lacking. Mama Vivrant Thang was never really into jazz so it wasn’t played much around the house. She did love Kenny G though and [...]

Remember the Four Brothers Beats blog? Well, the boys are back! BUT... not quite in the way you may have been expecting. It's, how shall we say, "the same, but different!"

Fusion: Where Music, Technology, and Artist Creativity Intersect
Hello readers and listeners. I trust all is well today. This post is a follow-up to the previous post about the subject of an upcoming podcast I hope to resurrect entitled Fusion. The concept of this podcast came to me via an off the cuff discussion I had a few years ago with a fellow podcaster/recording artist/graphic designer. Both of us, being musicians in our own right, began discussing our backgrounds and influences in making music, which invariably talking about how technology (past and present) played a role taking the music from inner to outer. I began to see the different paths ...
