Greetings all, and welcome back to the Funky16Corners-adelic-superfragelistic thing for another week.<\/strong><\/div>\n

Before we get started, I want to say that after serious consideration with the Funky16Corners board of directors, and close consultation with some serious heads (not the least of whom being my man DJ Prestige<\/strong>) I have decided not to deep six the old versions of the blog (WordPress and Blogger). While I did deactivate all active content links on both sites (replacing them with redirects where necessary), since I was unable to do a full export of the WordPress blog, and could not bring over the comments on the old blog posts, AND since I consider reader commentary to be an important part of the process (mainly because so many of you contribute information via those posts) I figured it would benefit all parties to keep the old sites up and running (with any luck as long as this sentence).
\nAnything you might travel back there to hear, can now be heard here in the new Funky16Corners Radio Podcast and Guest Mix Archives.
\nThe mix you see before you today was supposed to be up in this space on Friday, but I just had too damn much to do, and so I had to put it off for a couple of days. I think, however that you will be pleased when you pull down the ones and zeros and stuff it in your ears.
\nFor you see (hear), Funky16Corners Radio v.80<\/strong>* is just about an hour of high octane, Hammond fueled groove grease guaranteed to get you off your ass, slipping and sliding across the floor, with the hip-shaking, and the wild gesticulation, and the shaking of the hair, gospel wailing and general good times.
\nBig words those, but I think once the sounds have been ingested, you will concur.
\nIt all started thusly\u2026<\/em>
\nBack before Christmas, my lovely wife asked me what I wanted as a holiday gift. I generally reply to these queries with a shrug and a \u2018Don\u2019t worry \u2018bout me on account of I pretty much have everything I need<\/em>\u2019. However, this year there was something I had my eye on, so I sent my wife the link, and \u2018Bob\u2019s yer uncle\u2019 a brand new digital recorded dropped into my stocking.
\nMy main motivation in requesting this new bit of hardware was so that my casting of the pods would be facilitated, but as is the norm when I get a new toy, I find some other, more interesting way to put it to work, and so I did.
\nIt was at the last Asbury Park 45 Sessions<\/strong> that I brought my recorder along and attempted to record my set right off the board. I thought everything had gone swimmingly, until I got up the next morning, transferred the file onto my laptop and discovered that Einstein (that\u2019s me, heh heh\u2026<\/em>) hadn\u2019t read the instructions properly, and what I had recorded was not the mix off the board, but all the ambient noise surrounding it. I tossed that one into the old electronic wastebasket and set my sights on my next set at Master Groove.<\/strong>
\nWell my friends, it was a success.<\/em>
\nI had spoken to my host the esteemed DJ Bluewater<\/strong><\/a> about what I would play this time, and I suggested a \u2018theme set\u2019 of sorts. He thought this was a good idea, so I sat down in the midst of my record vault and started digging. I had originally thought I might do a Northern Soul thing (next time out maybe) but I happened upon a clump of solid Hammond 45s, so I took that as a sign and continued in that direction.
\nWhat you have here is an actual live mix, recorded directly from the booth monitor line on the mixer, no fiddling\/editing involved.
\nIf you\u2019ve visited with me here over the years, you\u2019ll already be aware that I am a first class Hammond organ nut, and my crates run deep. When I started pulling stuff to compose my set, I extracted enough records for three or four sets, and then sat down with the turntable and selected a little over an hour\u2019s worth of faves.
\nThe records you\u2019ll hear in this mix are the very cream of the dancefloor Hammond crop, with lots of your big keyboard wranglers (Messrs Earland, Doggett, McCall, Lewis, Van Dyke, Frog <\/strong>and Carnegie)<\/strong> a couple of unusual sources (Albert Collins<\/strong> and the Turtles<\/strong>, yes<\/em>, the Turtles) and a few things you may not have heard before.
\nAs stated previously, my intention here was to whip something up to get the dancers moving, so if you\u2019re playing this inside your corporate veal pen, try not to spill your coffee\/disturb your neighbor. If you\u2019re on the bus, piping it in via earbuds, don\u2019t be surprised if your neighbor attempts to administer first aid, since you may appear to be involved in convulsions of some sort.
\nThat said, I will refrain from further comment, letting the sounds speak for themselves.
\nI hope you dig the mix, and rest assured that I will endeavor to bring you more of the same (both live, and organ mixes) in the coming months.<\/p>\n

Peace<\/strong><\/p>\n

*I was rapping with my man DJ Bluewater last week about how I can’t beleive how many mixes are in the Funky16Corners and Iron Leg Archives (combined mounting up to well over 100 mixes in less than four years)

PPS – Make sure to fall by Iron Leg for some Memphis rock.
