I'm flattered. I do indeed have 99 problems, but a bitch is not one of them.

So does this count as A, B and C? I suppose I'll find out soon enough.

*takes notes*

Lots of stuff new to me, which is always good. Lots of directions I'd like to explore here, too.

Again, I'm sorry I missed this. Your sets look awesome. Any chance you could rebroadcast Saturday during the day?

That last song, by the way, might be the strangest song Stevie Wonder ever sang. And that's no faint praise, unlike when, the other day, someone remarked that mine is the youngest, hippest public library branch.

Curtis Mayfield - Stone Junkie
Marvin Gaye - Trouble Man
Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra - Uprising
Walt Dickerson and Sun Ra - Visions
Mongo Santamaria - Watermelon Man
Dr. Dre - Xxplosive (instrumental)
Steven Bernstein - yis may hoo
Cymande - Zion I

And that's all for tonight. Thanks for listening. Sorry you missed it, matildaben. I'm not sure what I'm doing on Saturday, or who will be broadcasting, but I'll try.
