Dave Grusin - Friends And Strangers

Digital Crate Digging Continues as we proceed and continue trying to get over the hump per this HumpDay Extravaganza! 

Y’all should know how we do, still broadcasting live and direct from our remote outpost out off of I-20 in Atlanta! 

A brotha was stranded here when lights started blinking on the instrument panel in the 76 Buick Regal out on I-75 outside of Atlanta!  

Signals on the panel said I was stuck! the word on the curb said this was the land of milk and honey so I pressed my luck! Even my homie from Bombay India said they understand a brotha! 

Another homie from India reminded me of American imperialism around the world, an example was Abrams tanks to Ukraine!!  I told him “true dat” per being a black man trying to survive in America! 

I told him the saga  / struggle continues and they’re still not playing fair with a brotha!

O-Zone will razz a comedian and politician per their shady dealing in this nation!! once again it's on!!

Clones caught up in the machine / apparatus/  check the status!! checked the Atlanta skies, chemtrails left by a drone? 

Told a machinist or social engineer to watch their tone; per Ronnie Laws it's hard to determine Friends and Strangers..

Either or, now check the score; check the players and the track as we check out the Dave Grusin version of  Friends And Strangers!!

Tom Browne - Promises For Spring

Sunday Jazz Continues; what else besides gospel music should we be playing?

The saga / struggle continues; check this good word / gospel according to O-Zone; what else should he be saying?

Danger zone business; what else should Robert Mueller be saying? Adam Schiff said he may have to ask with subpoenas..

Danger zone business? not acting brand new with ya even as priorities shift;  either some are for or against us...

Didn't believe the empty promise of the stranger bearing gifts, just an agent of the arch nemesis on the premises..

Listening to Tom Browne with Promises For Spring; as February, Black History Month comes to a close what will March and April bring? check the players and the track, we didn't let hope diminish..

Dave Grusin - Shine On

Digital Crate Digging Continues as my Saturday Night Fever segment is underway..

The saga / struggle continues!! holla at me if your feeling it!! what more can I say? 

I could say let the music play, which is my motto!! so, we'll follow those rules and regulations..

Chilling out on a Saturday evening? why not bro!!! it's been rough out here dealing with fools and their instigations..

Check the situations; we're listening to this smooth track from composer /  pianist Dave Grusin called Shine On.

This is the soundtrack  / score from a  movie called The Yakuza from 1975 starring Robert Mitchum...

Bringing that smooth sound back!! Mr. Grusin had help from Lee Ritenour and Jerome Richardson..

Bringing that smooth sound back!! using it to uplift that sour mood dude!! so how you feeling?

Vibrations PT.3 (Throwback Thursday Edition)

My intuition was working overtime!!  old school Throwback Thursday / blue collar style. 

Feeling vibrations like Beach Boys or maybe Roy Ayers?  it's that Throwback Thursday style! 

Check the file; vibrations? Stakes Is High per De La Soul!! jokers felt vindicated like Trump?  please!!  it's business as usual as the tires screech when those boys over in Decatur aka so called players pull capers! getting foul!

Styles indicated as beats thump in the old school Chevy Impala; what?  sounds like auto tuned mumbled raps,  somebody turn that dial. 

Throwback Thursday?  I've been here for a while,  it's a blessing!  Thankful and Thoughtful like that Dave Grusin joint.

...Vocals by Phoebe Snow;  so whatcha know?  who'll work with me?  not the one they'll anoint. 

...Not the one they'll appoint like Neil Gorsuch,  I have a hard time carrying weed and water. 

Plots and schemes taught me how the sport gets,  I keep praying to the Heavenly Father. 

Plots and schemes for me to abort this? vibrations we're felt, plus bad cards were dealt..

Corporations aka gamblers were out for a fast buck!! even Sears / K-Mart have a "going concern"  but I saw how they were rolling,  it was already felt.. 

Vibrations? hopefully positive; eradicate those fears and play like you have a heart per the March Madness 2017 Sweet 16...

Vibrations? during the ongoing crisis some will operate like ISIS at the London Parliament;  we're staying strong riding down I-20 in Atlanta listening to Parliament while observing the scene...
