Ive always been a fan of the funky stuff that Willie Tee and the Gaturs did but his soul pieces have gotten the most play at the house in recent days. Just beautiful work on the music and a great voice. Check the clips:

I used to be irked by Aaron McGruder's heavy-handed haterish ways, but man, season 2 is HILARIOUS! I mean, dude's still haterish but now the comedy more than makes up for it. And to be fair, he's a little more balanced than the strip and the first season ...

Saw her mentioned in two separate threads and wanted to start a fresh one on her. Sooooo much good music from her.Strutters probably want "I'm the One", but I think her string of late seventies albums are great too. Cheap and good. I'm still surprised by ...

We are very lucky that when producing Bill Withers first lp, Jones knew to let Bill and his guitar be just who they were. The simple laidback production lets those songs sing. He did the same thing for Willie Nelson when Willie did an lp of standards back ...

i just got the group's 1978 album called gli arrabbiati restano! and i am just blown away by it. i know they have lots of albums with an ever-changing line-up; can anybody recommend any of their other albums?Il bandito Del Deserto:Acrosticointerno con ...

Just looking through some crap from 3+ years ago. Man I didn't really know what I was talking about but it was GREAT! There's a shitstorm of mails from all sorts of random people Big Dudes, fellow lil dudes, and hostyle73 on the case. BUT IT WAS ALL GOOD ...

Just won the Pritzker Prize. I saw a film about this spa he did. Some other projects.A church. Not sure what this building is, I think it's in Japan.

I'm addicted to these. The Los Zetas one was on some facemelt shit (literally).This needs to win an emmy.

I just relistened "All the faces of Buddy Miles". An album I have for so long that I nearly forgot about it.Such a great record. Sounds completely like a Johnny Bristol album, even Buddys singing. Don't see the album very often. Is it worth serious money? ...

I am probably exposing myself to extreme ridicule, but i just revisited their records and damn if they didn't have some great songs and solid albums.wouldn;t rate them as highly as mandrill or war but they were sort of in that league..will anyone ride for ...
