Digital Crate Digging Continues on this Music Monday, we’re working on lab techniques chilling out / low key; usually O-Dog Day Partying around this time of day!

The saga / struggle continues, don’t get me wrong!! your dude is feeling some kind of way!!

 It’s the last day of winter, winds of change are blowing as the Spring Equinox ushers in Aries Season!!

I was about to tell a big lie to some of my constituents recently by saying Wes Montgomery was the greatest jazz guitarist ever…I forgot about Grant Green son!! 

Check out It’s Your Thing!! his version of the Isley Brothers classic!! I like this cut with the little four or five piece band rocking the scene! 

I love live instrumentation with the horn players, drummer and big homie Ronnie Foster  on the organ cutting up!!  we’re Afternoon Jazzing!! check out the players and the track!! they’re rocking the scene!

Grant Green – Let The Music Take Your Mind

Digital Crate Digging Continues as we come through on this Fabulous Friday, so called because it’s a blessing to be here!

Flashback Friday references are also made, by now y’all should know we get retro futuristic when we take it there! 

We recognize the pattern, the apparatus is not playing fair but due to previous episodes we knew they wouldn’t!

Bruising and battering from reality is dealt with per devious modes presented by the devil and his advocates but at the end of the day we can see the beauty in it..

..especially after we overcome like the Civil Rights Movement anthem song by Diana Ross, work is put in we weren’t out here trying to front / flex / floss we aren’t playing around with them!

Now let the healing process begin, now we’ll proceed and continue to drop this good word and the sound on them. 

We’re out here checking out this supreme jazz funk from Grant Green with his version of Sly and The Family Stone’s Let The Music Take Your Mind.

Check out the players and the track as we come though getting breakbeat scientific, putting something on your mind!!

Will Downing – I Can’t Help It

Digital Crate Digging Continues on a Music Monday; at the moment we’re in the lab chilling..

The saga / struggle continues aka life goes on once again it’s on! the music will play and this good word is dropped in the midst of the shady dealing..

It took a while for Biden and Harris  to be declared victorious and of course Trump is still opposing this!

We’re still freedom riding understanding the system is not fair with this; of course the devil is opposing this! 

..we kept  riding  / rolling with this earlier out on I-20 in Atlanta in the Buick Lucerne the deuce and a quarter  / LeSabre descendant 

We kept sliding through the portal knowing how the sport will go always a defendant..

Chilling with it listening to Will Downing with his version of Stevie Wonder’s I Can’t Help It

Marcus Miller on Bass, Ronnie Foster on keyboards and Boney James on the saxophone are swerving with it; Afternoon Jazzing? Oh yeah!  I love it, I can’t help it!

George Benson – Affirmation

Digital Crate Digging Continues on what I refer to as a Terrible / Terrific Tuesday…

Things can play out either way as we claim the terrific outcome; my constituents already know what the news will be..

….as we pull out the drum and let the music play but on another level we know how a devil will play…

Checked out the Amy Coney Barrett confirmations knowing Mitch McConnell types wouldn’t be fair with it, we knew how they would play!!

What more can your homie say? George Benson with Affirmation will play as Tuesday morning transitions into Tuesday afternoon…

Letting the music play, Afternoon Jazzing with these sonic affirmations? check out the players and this good music playing, check the tune!

 

 

Ronnie Foster – Funky Motion

Digital Crate Digging Continues!! check us out as we handle this Throwback Thursday type of business…

The saga / struggle continues aka life goes on; check us out as we go back to the future!! my constituents know what the deal is…

….a retro- futuristic mystic back with it; what? the future funk!! these times demand it..

O- Metro aka O- City aka O-Dizzle watched plans fizzle; now like Rev Al Sharpton mentioned at the George Floyd memorial service America has it’s knee on our neck?

From the get go? it’s been like that all the way back to the middle passages!! now we’re in the heart of a hostile territory where rights are null and void?  plus this Covid -19? your dude is trying to avoid!! is there any respect?

Didn’t let go, we slide through these portals / passages celebrating life in honor of George Floyd / Ahmaud Arbery / Breonna Taylor setting this O-Dog Day Party off…

..we’re listening to this classic / supreme funk from Ronnie Foster called Funky Motion!! check out the players and the track!! they’re going off!!

Ronnie Foster – Funky Motion

Digital Crate Digging Continues on a Saturday afternoon; we usually have an Afternoon Jazz thing going…

We’re trying to follow those principles, playing a jazz tune or two; this is how we’re flowing..

Going for what we’re knowing; ignoring so called powers that be likeAgriculture department employees vs Sonny Perdue..

Going for what we’re knowing!! the last hour approaches!!  in the culture these players turned to coaches; this team has work to do…

Coming through like Toronto Raptors,  avoiding capture during the rapture? pulling up listening to Ronnie Foster with a track called  Funky Motion..

Check out the players and the track as your dude brings this old school jazz funk back!! this funky type of soul brotha had a notion!!
