MP3 & Playlist for Lost & Found, 02/20/06


quiet storm

All in the Same Gang

Giving has it's rewards, as this week I turn over the show to my good friend Brian AKA Biz AKA AllModCon4, who generously donated to WMBR during our last fundraiser - earning the right to enforce his will upon you all for the next 2 hours. Don't worry - the process is painless and actually quite pleasurable, as Brian's taste in music is unfadeable, and given the chance to select a show, he rose to the challenge with authority.

To hear for yourself, click on the Bessie Banks 45 below - and a playlist is provided further downward, for preview/review purposes.

Sound File for 2/6 Show Fixed...

A couple of listeners dropped
lines to let me know the sound file for
this most recent show was linking the incorrect
program - this has been fixed, so listen away!

Thanks to those who gave me the heads up,
and while I have your attention, a few listeners have
requested non-streaming versions of the show that
they can download and put on their ipods, etc.
I can do this using a 3rd-party upload/download site,
but just be aware the files are usually around 118MB large
and can take a while to download if your connection isn't very fast,
and will take up that much disc space.
Anyway, if you are into this, drop me a line and let me know,
and if there is enough interest, I will put some up for DL.
-Mark

Soul Spectrum 01/15/06 - Guest Show Playlist & MP3


feline attraction

Back to the Boogie

4th time's a charm, as Josh M of Soul Spectrum asked me to fill in again on his fine show, and I jumped at the chance as always. I was feeling pretty awful with a cold, so I just played music for the most part, and kept the talking to a mimimum - to your benefit! Mixed show featuring some of my own modest choices I've picked up since the last show, along with a healthy stack of soulful digs from the WMBR record library...
and a couple of special tracks supplied for the show by Baptman & Supergood, through the forum on SoulStrut.com

Click on the Latimore 45 below to listen, and check the playlist farther along to get the inside dope.
