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

I hope the new week finds you all well, at least well enough to get out on the floor.<\/p>\n

A while back, I took my son out for a long-promised digging session at one of the few decent local record stores. He grabbed himself a bunch of LPs, while I scoured the 45 bins, picking up mostly disco 45s.<\/p>\n

Most of the stuff I found fell on the funky side of things, and while listening to them, I started to work up \u00a0the mix you see before you today, in which that kind of thing is mixed in with more of the same, some slightly later, danceable funk, as well as a couple of unusual things that sounded right to me.<\/p>\n

The hour-long mix is (with three exceptions) culled exclusively from 45s, heavy on the drums (there are a couple of nice breaks in there) and all right, tight and outtasite for the dance floor.<\/p>\n

As always, I hope you dig it, and I\u2019ll see you all on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n
