Heh

Sadly though King Charles III won't be on the throne very long due to his old age as well. But at least he'll have a chance to reign.

CT's importance in showcasing Brazilian music in the US is undeniable. The whole Creed Taylor-Brazil connection could be a show in itself

@listener Rey @3:26, i recently picked up a wax poetics anthology of the first 6 or so issues. the first article is a great profile on idris muhammad, reminding me that power of soul is probably in my top 5 CTI records
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:46pm
Funky16Corners:

Idris is all over these records, too, esp the late 60s dates
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:47pm

Only pondering the ill-luck of transitioning into that royal role under these historical conditions, BrianUK. Conditions that extend well beyond England in time and space. Probably some nervous uneasy asides....

^ Agreed. It's quite a bit lie Headhunters actually....couldn't place it at first, because so much light commercial funk kinda occupied this sonic space, but not with this level of musicianship, or this more specific musical quality (IMO)

About the Szabo Rambler cover: Focusing on the futuristic lines of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Houston, Texas, (Pete) Turner deliberately mismatched his film and light source to create the exciting graphic. Any material that is intended for use in daylight goes warm and shows a strong overall orange-red hue when used with tungsten light.

Funky16Corners:

The horn sounds on this tune are crazy. Especially the trombones.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:22pm

Well, my show leans kind of heavy on British bands today, which was not intentional, it just sort of came together that way.
