So glad to here the love never fades with you sir. Thanks for pulling me back in. Such a fan of how you put Ghost’s “Apollo Kids” verse. So smooth. Heard that when i think you released it. So good man.

Last PFTS for the year! A mix of some of my favorite purchases this past year, especially in regards to older music. Recorded live last night on Twitch. Thanks so much to everyone who tuned in, downloaded, re-posted and listened to even part of an episode this past year - you are much appreciated!

Pullin from the Stacks - Episode 223

Returning this week with a big stack of jazz and more I picked up last month in NYC, and also a couple selections in tribute to Harry Belafonte, probably one of the most incredible people to ever walk the earth. I recommend everyone go and pick up his autobiography just to see all the things he was involved in and accomplished. He lived an amazing life, and I start and finish this set with two tunes of his I love. 

Tracklist: Harry Belafonte, Rick Laird, Charlie Antolini, Masaru Imada, Walter Bishop Jr., Ted Vining Trio, Eric Kloss, Roy Ayers, Sunburst, Gil Scott Heron, Don Pullen, Harry Belafonte

Thought it was a good time to do a tribute to one of my favorite indie labels, PM Records. Listening to their music is kind of like a sci-fi-jazz-adventure, where the sound isn't easily labeled but the music is taking the listener in all kinds of directions while keeping a solid groove. Hope you dig it! 

Tracklist: Steve Grossman, Doug Riley, Stone Alliance, Elvin Jones, Stone Alliance, Steve Grossman, Pat Labarbera, Don Thompson
