Sunday Jazz Continues, errr wait a minute; Digital Crate Digging Continues, I’m trying to get ahead of myself!

Was O-Dog Day Partying but switching gears!! the saga / struggle continues, but we’re in it to win it /  going on with our bad selves!

 We’re in our remote outpost out off of I-20 in Atlanta behind the scenes of this blog; checking out this profound / epic / classic track called Swahililand  performed by Ahmad Jamal..

This is from his Jamal plays Jamal album from 1974...classic material cousin!! what? I’m trying to tell y’all..

Ahmad Jamal / Footprints (Live)

Digital Crate Digging Continues as we set this Saturday Night Fever edition off!

Chilling out, no Saturday Night Fever disco dancing like John Travolta the vibe has thrown us off!

Astrologers say blame it on the Full Moon in Libra chaos and confusion said we see ya! it have another fresh episode for us!

The logic was all game soon a fool will swoon and then become heartbroken! heard saying no justice..

...and no peace because the madness didn’t cease; meanwhile we find peace checking out Ahmad Jamal  playing Footprints  Live at the Montreal Jazz Festival in 1985.

Check out the players and the track, as we lay back in the cut trying to get our minds right! ignoring all the smoke and mirrors, the jive!

The World is a Ghetto - Ahmad Jamal

Sunday Jazz or I mean Digital Crate Digging Continues; the same type of vibe is exhibited, can you dig it?

Son!! not trying to spaz out here, the saga / struggle continues!! aka life goes on , can you dig it?

Friday night fever? oh yes it's going down!! hit the ground running with some disco / house music / techno from Carl Cox..

Now I'm back on that Flashback Friday vibe, taking it down a thousand; y'all know a dude will rock!!

..check the attitude, listening to Ahmad Jamal's version of War's The World Is A Ghetto.

Crate Diggers know what the deal is, back in the day they wouldn't let it go!!

 This song was sampled later for Fat Joe's "Sh*t is Real"; Rapper Big Pooh, Joe Scudda, and LEGACY with " Just Dont Speak"; Alkaholiks "Feel the Real".

Ahmad Jamal is on the keyboards with the orchestra directed by Richard Evans, something you should feel!!
