A few weeks ago, we reached out to @bboogaloo Brenda Ray's Bandcamp page to inquire about Perfume Of The Soul, her first album since 2006's Walatta. The message was essentially a shot in the dark, knowing full well that the enigmatic artist likely did not manage the page. To our surprise, Brenda responded, and with a gift...

Today, we present a very special mix beamed down to us directly from Naffi HQ. The selection includes tracks from Alice Coltrane, Augustus Pablo, Pharoah Sanders, The Chordettes, and others along with an unreleased B.R. tune that references a very familiar nocturne... The mix also comes with a short note from Brenda herself: "home, car, wherever y'are.......a selection of soul enlightening to lift the spirit music. Hope this finds 'You and Yours' keeping good and well - especially over these past couple of crazee years."

On this episode of Outsider Oldies, host Rich Tupica digs into Quentin Tarantino's soundtracks. From “Reservoir Dogs” to “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” this hour showcases the film director’s knack for plucking obscure or long-forgotten songs from his record bin and inserting them into mainstream pop culture. Stick around to hear some of the now-classics … and perhaps a few outsider tunes you hadn’t noticed humming away in the background of an intense scene.
