A collection of funky soul and soulful funk and disco and electro and champagne jams from 1971-1985. These are the sounds of summer from Chicago, Philly, DC, the South, the Upper Midwest, NYC, and LA. This mix is designed to be burned to an 80 minute CD-R and played in a car with no air conditioning. 

Champagne And Rollerskates: A Summer Sampler

First new podcast in two years. More coming soon. If you liked Random Old Records Podcast before, then you will like this one. If you've never heard an episode before, then this is as good of a place to start as any. An hour of songs about growing up, growing out, driving trucks, taking the corners easy, and summer for whatever reason.
