Cosby (in light of recent events, I should beg pardon for bringing him up, but this was a long time ago) did a spoof of JB in the 70s that featured his call-outs to his drummer.

All the music in this set excerpted from a tribute mix I did when Clyde Stubblefield passed away last year. You can dig the whole thing here: funky16corners.com...

That last set slayed, by the way.

I had never heard any version of Soul Makossa other than the one that was a hit in the U.S. in the mid 70s.

Thanks Parq!

Didn’t realize before that you can get your cha cha on and your ya yas out both t’ once with the Marmalade music.

Mongo covered a lot of cool stuff. His 1960s Columbia albums are cheap, plentiful and full of good music.

Hey SBP!

This was what first brought Mongo to my attention. Needless to say, it caught this 15 year old boy's eye.

How’s evbody doon? Tunes too good to silence.
Smarty phone technology — recently adopted — has tossed me back five decades in a fashion, with listening abed reminding me of transistor radio sessions in the blankets.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:45pm
Funky16Corners:

That's cool, too. Sneak that phone under the covers and listen in the dark!

Sure, but being reminded of transistor radio isn't even close to listening to transistor radio.

Fidelity's better, but we all get to use our imagination. My memories of listening to the radio well into the night as a kid are strong.

Thanks Geezerette!

Likewise. As a kid, as a young adult, too.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:48pm
Funky16Corners:

I even used to listen to TV! I could pick up the audio from the ABC affiliate in Philadelphia way down at the bottom of the FM dial. I used to listen to the late show.
  11:51pm
still b/p:

Had a funny tech reminder with a hand- size radio a few months ago. Mostly dormant, but pulled it out to specifically use its TV audio bands for some forgotten reason. White noise there.... and I remembered, “Ohhhh yeah, the stations aren’t broadcasting an analog signal no’ mo’.” The feature... it is useless.
  11:52pm
Dean:

I can't begin to inventory the stuff I heard: amazing evangelical call-in shows, Johnny Otis, blues dudes, prog rock outta Long Beach, Rodney on the ROQ, ordinary AM hits, early "Love Line" with Poor Man, classical on KUSC...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:52pm
Funky16Corners:

That was one of my favorite things as a kid. Kind of a secret way to stay up with the TV without staying up with the TV.
