Greetings all.<\/strong><\/div>\n

Welcome back to the ongoing saga of the Funky16Corners <\/strong>blog, its author, a huge, ever-pulsing mountain of records and his efforts to rein it all in and make some sense of it (both physically and philosophically).
\nI spent the first part of the weekend checking out the mighty DJ Prestige<\/strong> doing an in-store set at Hold Fast<\/strong> in Asbury Park, while also (of course<\/em>) picking up a handful of LPs to celebrate Record Store Day. Pres brought the heat (as expected) and then the fam and I headed out for some of those good Long Branch hot dogs and a couple of other errands, followed by some serious work in the Funky16Corners Record Vault and Podcasting Nerve Center<\/strong>.
\nThe renovation is almost done, with some fine tuning remaining here and there, with the disposal of much trash yet to be completed (I suspect a trip or two to the town dump maybe in order). After undoing a veritable Gordian knot of old-school computer equipment (as well as moving\/storing a huge amount of data, most of it blog-related, onto a new 1TB drive), it\u2019ll all have to be reconfigured over the next few days. I have my work cut out for me, but things are going to be so much easier when I\u2019m done that it\u2019ll be more than worth it.
\nThis early and unexpected edition of the Funky16Corners Radio<\/strong> thing is evidence of said project, and a small bit of celebration that it is in fact coming to fruition. The first thing I did (after getting the room somewhat organized) was the installation of the home DJ setup (see above). This had been both a long time coming, and extremely satisfying when it was finished.
\nFollowing a few days of getting all my sonic ducks in a row (cableing, knob-turning, equalizing and whatnot), I hooked up the digital recorder, grabbed my road cases and pulled out a small stack of 45s and mixed them live, on the spot.
\nAside from a certain, unifying feel (funk, soul and funky soul, natch<\/em>), I didn\u2019t concentrate all that much on pre-selection of the tunes herein. I grabbed something interesting to kick things off, and as that record rotated, I pulled a handful of others out of the box, picked one (or two, or three, depending on how deep a handful fate was dealing me) that I thought might fit, cued it up on the second turntable and repeated the process until a little over forty-five minutes later the needle on the last record hit the run-off groove. Not unlike how I do it when I\u2019m spinning at the Asbury Park 45 Sessions<\/strong> or any other live date. It’s one of those things where you hope you’ve stocked your record box properly, and you let inspirado take you by the hand and lead where it will.
\nThere are a lot of old faves here, as well as a couple of tracks that will return to be blogged on their own in the not too distant future. As has been the policy with ‘live’ mixes, there is no accompanying zip file, but remember that this is not going to be the ongoing F16Radio format. Think of it as a special bonus to stuff into your ears on Monday.
\nI hope you dig the mix, and I\u2019ll be back later in the week with something groovy.<\/p>\n

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