CD Find Of The Day It's crazy the things you run across while looking for something else...
...Florida Funk: 1968-1975 This is a compilation disc consisting of cuts from relatively unknown Florida Funk bands. One of the tunes (All The Time - Bobby Williams) is by an Orlando artist I auditioned for when I lived there in the early 70s. The Montereys (Get Down) were a popular act (correction: out of Tampa) during that time period. More well known names like Little Beaver (Everybody Has Some Dues to Pay) & Blowfly (Butterfly Theme) are also included. Then there's the classic Baby Don't Cry by Third Guitar And how could you ignore a group with the name The Mighty Dogcatchers (It's Gonna Be A Mess). But the stunner for me was seeing the tune Spider Web by the Gainesville based Weston Prim & Blacklash on the disc. They were good friends of mine when I lived there. Their guitarist eventually quit Blacklash to start a group with myself and current musical partner Longineu Parsons. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 [Edited 4/6/07 12:59pm] "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

It's sort of a shame that the Weston Prim & Blacklash cut is an instrumental. Wes was a great singer fronting that funky horn band. He physically reminded me of Baby Huey (the singer). Big fro, big bodied brother. Note: Have to contribute another set for "The Lounge". tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

Neil,
I was going to .orgnote this to you, but the damn .org is acting up. That EXACT cd was "Programmer's Pick of the Week" at this community radio station I listen to last Friday. The station is KRCL and you can stream it at www.krcl.org Fridays are all classic R&B...some parts of the day, the song has to be at least 30 years old to be played. Just thought you might like to listen. I'm firmly planted in denial | |

A couple of those are available from the same folks that put out the Florida disc.
