Greetings all.

Valentine’s Day is upon us once again, and though I have traditionally re-posted the 2012 Funky16Corners mix ‘Dance of Love’, I thought that the time was right this year to whip up a brand new love mix for you to share with your significant other.

Funky16Corners: Super Duper Love is just over an hour of groovy, uptempo soul and funk love songs (all on a positive tip, because who needs to hear about heartbreak when you’re celebrating.

I once again dedicate it to my lovely wife!

I hope you dig it, spin it for the one you love.

See you on Friday.

Keep the faith

Larry

Greetings all.

Hey everybody!

The weekend is nigh, and that means that it’s almost Funky16Corners Radio Show time. We come to you each and every Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio with the best in funk, soul, jazz and rare groove all on original vinyl. If you can’t be there at airtime, you can always keep up by subscribing to the show as a podcast in iTunes, listening on your mobile device through the TuneIn ap, or grabbing yourself an MP3 here at the blog.

Valentines Day is almost here, and what better way to celebrate than re-upping one of my favorite Funky16Corners mixes, Dance of Love.

First posted in 2012, and dedicated (then and always) to my lovely wife, it’s a collection of some of my favorite soulful love songs, mostly on the danceable tip, so that you might grab the one you love and cut yourselves a slice of rug.

And even if you’re not presently attached, slap this one on, turn it up, open up the windows and before you know it you’ll be swamped in potential romantic partners!

I hope you dig it, and I’ll be back on Monday.

Keep the faith

Larry

Greetings all.

What you see before you is an impromptu musical love letter/box of chocolates that I put together to evoke the soulful spirit of love.

I do so in the general, Valentine’s Day sense, but also in the specific sense of the love that I have for my wife.

As regular readers of the blog know she’s been going through some tough stuff the last few months, which she has weathered with exceptionally good spirits and courage.

She had a particularly hard day today, and I was mulling over the idea of a lover’s mix that she might download and play to lift her spirits in the hospital, and that others, in the embrace of their own love might listen to as well.

There’s a wide variety of great tunes here – and no, I do not own an original copy of the Frank Wilson 45, but I can dream, can’t I? – all on the upbeat, positive tip.

It’s just over 45 minutes of great stuff.

I hope you dig the sounds and play them for someone you love.

Oh…one more thing…I just added a Flash player in the sidebar so you can play the most recent episode of the Funky16Corners Radio Show while you’re browsing the site!

I’ll see you all later in the week.

 

Peace

Larry
