..so who'll work with me? at the moment chilling out in the lab out in our remote outpost out off of I-20 in Atlanta!

O-Dog Day Partying earlier after being out in those Atlanta streets, North / West / South and East! now I'm back in the lab trying to get my mind right, somebody might understand a brotha..

..utilizing 20 / 20 hindsight even though old dude up in Louisville / Newburg told me it is what it is and it's what its going to be! 

Sho You Right is heard from Barry White types in the amen corner, throwing shade at me!

Yusef Lateef with Art Farmer - Look on Your Right Side

Digital Crate Digging Continues on Throwback Thursday as we get nostalgic..

Excuse us but we’re also taking it back to the future as we get retro - futuristic

Also in the present so we won’t miss it we’re chilling in the lab but we’re not watching the Presidential debate..

Like Trump mentioned earlier it is what it is in reference to Covid 19 but nothing was heard or seen but hate..

Beats will bump but science is dropped with Yusef Lateef and Art Farmer mentioning Look On Your Right Side...

Eric Gale helps out on guitar with Gary King was on bass as they put this soul jazz / jazz funk in your face plus they drop knowledge about things going sideways / going left not on the right side..

 

Eric Gale - Sara Smile

Sunday Jazz Continues!! check us out as a little digital crate digging will be involved...

The saga / struggle continues, can you dig it? during the ongoing process we jumped to the the conclusion that it's rough out here, but we evolved..

The saga / struggle continues,  threw some salve on the wounds and kept it moving / grooving..

Chilling out on this Sunday evening after coming out odd and even in the ongoing crap game; life is a gamble,  winning and losing..

Shady dealing out here in Babylon? oh yes, once again it's on!! we rebuke it with this sound!! listening to Eric Gale with his version of the the Hall and Oates track Sara Smile..
