{Congrats to winners Richard C. and Alex M.!!!}
Yes, it sucks that Sunset Junction has been canceled. But look on the brightside, if it hadn’t I would have tickets to go see Charles Bradley (just recently reviewed here!) at the Echoplex on Sunday night!!! I’ve said quite a bit about Bradley’s talent as a soul singer, as a live performer, he’s also quite a talent. Imagine if in the 1980s James Brown had decided to bring back super heavy funk and had the band to back him…that gives you an idea of what a Charles Bradley concert might just be like. You have a chance to see him live at the Echoplex courtesy of Melting Pot if you win the tickets…e-mail me at michael[at]meltingpotblog.com by 12noon Saturday for your chance!!!
Here’s a taste of what you’ll be seeing, several songs recorded from a performance in France:
And here’s the very slick video for “The World” from Mr. Bradley & the Menahan Street Band:
