Had to wait all the way for March for our first all vinyl show on Melting Pot. I’ve actually been a busy beaver on the vinyl front the last couple of months, so there was plenty of goodies to share with y’all. Unfortunately, my computer apparently decided that it didn’t want to record any of the analog sounds in the first hour (i’ve used the lower quality one from KPFK’s audio archives instead), though I was able to sweet talk it into getting all of the second hour. I’m out of town this week, but the always solid O-Dub from Soul-Sides.com will be guest hosting on April Fools Day at Melting Pot. Enjoy!
