Was recently in Chicago and had many record store adventures. One record that popped up in the cheap bins was something I'd been after, "Chicago Jazz Dance Revival at Gus Place" by the Johnny Frigo Quartet. Frigo and his various groups put out several records of "jazz dance music" for Gus Giordano in the late 60s and early 70s covering jazz, rock and funk tunes of the day. I've been slowly grabbing these albums over the years when I find them and figured now might be a moment to play a few selections on the podcast. Dig in!

Mourning the loss of the one and only D'Angelo, and celebrating his music with an all vinyl tribute set.  Recorded live at BierWax in Brooklyn, NY on October 16, 2025.  A two-hour set can't possibly do justice to the man's catalog, and there are a lot more songs I wish I could've played, but hopefully this mix will give fans some comfort, and turn new listeners on to the genius of Michael Eugene Archer.  Rest in peace, king.

His smooth jazz and fusion compositions became the backbone of countless classics — from Run DMC and Gang Starr to Warren G, De La Soul, and beyond.

In this episode, we dive deep into his timeless grooves and the legendary records that defined an era.
From “Nautilus” and “Take Me To The Mardi Gras” to “Westchester Lady” and “Night Crawler” — every loop tells a story.
