Greetings all.

Happy Labor Day to those of you here in the US, where we honor the work of the American worker and the labor movement (though lately it’s looking more like a wake).

This also marks the end of the summer vacation season, which here at the shore is something of a mixed blessing, since my wife and kids have to return to school, but we also get to experience the phenomenon of ‘local summer’ during which we experience the fair weather and outdoor recreation largely free of the tourist horde.

Late last week one of my longtime fellow Soulstrut-ters, DJ Forty Fivan contacted me about the possibility of running his latest mix, the extremely groovy and very heavy ‘FortyFivan Vol 4’ as part of the Funky16Corners Soul Club guest mix series.

I’d already had a preview of the mix and thought this a capital idea, so here you have it.

What you get is a stellar mix with just under and hour of rare and ultra-rare funk and soul goodness.

Believe me when I tell you that this one exudes heat in a big way, and I know you’ll dig it.

Here’s Forty Fivan’s bio.

Forty Fivan, formerly known as DJ Ferrari, is one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s premier rare groove DJs and vinyl collectors creatively spinning the best and rarest funk and soul records from around the world. Highly regarded for his deep and diverse record collection, Forty Fivan has played shows all around the world including exotic locations like Barcelona and Rio de Janeiro. Never one to compromise in taste, Forty Fivan remains a trusted selector amongst those with a discerning ear for proper soul music.

When not scouring the globe for obscure vinyl, Forty Fivan, real name Ivan Dwyer, remains beyond busy in the fast paced Silicon Valley technology world as both the Head of Digital Publishing for ACCESS (www.access-company.com), a global provider of advanced software solutions for connected devices, and the CEO & Founder of Maravil (www.maravil.com), a creative technology and services provider working with independent musicians and record labels to create personalized mobile apps for the iPhone and iPad.

So go on, pull down the ones and zeros and dig the sounds.

I’ll be back on Thursday with something cool.

Peace

Larry
