Radio Clandestino playlist 12/5

I had a great time bringing you these jams. This coming week Rockmaster Rob Forman will be filling in for me. Catch the program every Monday 230-430pm (ET) at WMUA.org. Don't forget, this Saturday night we will be doing our final Sweet Exorcist vinyl dance party of the year at The People's Pint. Details here.

Fela sideman leads the Afrika 70 band.



Don Julian..."Savage" theme...Savage soundtrack...(Money)
Amazing soundtrack to a movie that I have never seen.



Leon Mitchison & The Eastex Freeway Band..."Street Scene" (original)...12"...(Now Again)
A long time fave funky tune for me, I had no idea this existed on a reissue 12, with alternate (worthy) versions too! I am glad to upgrade to a fresh reissue!

Dilla fans take note.
