You'd think after 5 years of this that I'd have some sort of routine, that I'd prepare things in advance. At the very least, you'd think I'd remember to set aside a few minutes to write something. After all this time, you still don't know me. Doklands is the home of the last minute rush. No rushing on the mighty By The Time I Get To Phoenix , though. 19 minutes of brooding is what you get, the first 8 minutes of which are a just the spoken word introduction. Not for [...]

A look back at Ween's contribution to 1998's Chef Aid compilation: the group's collaboration with Isaac Hayes titled The Rainbow.
I'll be honest. There are few forms of physical exercise that I actually enjoy. I hate sports -- team and non-team, watching or playing them -- so what's left? Dancing comes immediately to mind. But dancing with or without the stars is such fun because booze is often involved, and getting down can lead to getting it on, another physical activity that can be a blast, solo or with a partner. The best part: You don't have to leave home, or even get out of bed, to do it -- unless you want to. But is there [...]
This is Isaac Hayes live in concert at the Indianapolis Jazz Festival back on the 19th June 1999. Isaac Hayes was born in Covington, Tennessee, in Tipton County. He was the second child of Isaac Hayes, Sr. and Eula Hayes. After his mother died young, and his father abandoned his family, Isaac, Jr., was raised by his maternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Willie Wade, Sr. The child of a poor sharecropper family, he grew up working on farms in Shelby County, Tennessee and in Tipton County. Isaac dropped out of [...]

Flako-Paparazzi Download audio file (Paparazzi.mp3) When I heard about the passing of the legendary Gil Scott-Heron, I decided that it was time for another installment of my old-school Innervisions compilations. I grew up in a musical house with a father who collects records. As a kid and even now, the minute you walk into my parents' house you will be greeted with [...]

Funky, funky business from Truth & Soul Records today, who have kindly sent over a smattering of tracks from their latest compilation, Fallin' Off The Reel III , for your downloading pleasure. Fallin' Off The Reel III showcases the best of the best from T&S' string of stonking 45 vinyl singles releases. It's a bit of a chance to catch up on what you've probably missed out on due to the label never pressing up more than 2000 copies of any of their singles. There's some quality [...]

Nädalavahetus jätkub muusikaga, mis võiks ja peaks olema mõne seriaali tunnuslugu. Isaac Hayes - Pursuit of the Pimpmobile (Onur Engin Edit) ( mp3 )
The story goes that Jim Morrison hated Light My Fire, The Doors' great breakthrough hit. Recorded in August 1966, it was released in January 1967, at the dawn of the so-called Summer of Love. If it was true that Morrison disliked it, I'd sort of concur with his judgment. In fact, he didn't hate the song, but resented that he had only a small part in writing his band's signature hit (most of it was written by guitarist Robby Krieger). I don't like The Doors much, and have more respect than affection for their version of Light My [...]
Isaac Hayes - Hung Up On My Baby
The songwriting legend discusses his craft while offering insights on The Beatles, Eminem, and what he's learned from mentors in his career.
From Reasonable Doubt to In My LIfetime Vol. 1 , Jay-Z's approach as a rapper went through some noticeable changes, lyrically and also with choice of production. On his debut, the bulk of the tracks were handled by Clark Kent, Ski Beatz , and the homey DJ Premier . His sophomore effort had a little bit more gloss in it's production, mostly due to the addition of Puffy's Hitmen behind the boards. Lucky for us all, Jay kept a few of his original producers on board for In My Lifetime , and rightfully so, started it off with a DJ Premier produced intro. The [...]
Christmas got funky, Christmas got soul! The analytical eagle-eyed reader may have deduced, by astute observation of the post's title, that this year's Christmas mix is dominated by soul music, and that there will be at least one more compilation. Indeed, there will be at least a second mix of Christmas soul tracks from the heyday of the genre – the 1960s and '70s. I have held back a few cracking numbers anyway. Still, this is a really great bunch of songs. Whoever I got the utterly gorgeous opening track from, I am particularly grateful to. The Flirtations, one of [...]
