Radio Clandestino playlist 5/21...RIP Chuck Brown

Thanks again for listening. This week we paid tribute to the recently passed Chuck Brown, Godfather of DC go go music. In the second hour we heard not only from Chuck, but also from other DC favorites of mine.
Catch Radio Clandestino with Andujar every Monday 230-430pm (ET) at WMUA.

Luis Gasca..."Street Dude"...For Those Who Chant...(Blue Thumb)
One of my favorite LPs of the latin soul jazz variety. This would be most of the '71 Santana band, with guests such as Joe Henderson, Stanley Clarke, etc.

Jungle By Night..."Afro Blue"...Jungle By Night...(Kindred Spirits)



Pucho & his Latin Soul Brothers..."Caravan"...Saffron & Soul...(Prestige)



Dizzy Gillespie..."N'bani"...The Real Thing...(Perception) 
More of a Mike Longo album than the Real Dizzy.


The Stark Reality..."All You Need To Make Music"...Discovers Hoagy Carmichael's Music Shop...(Now Again reissue)
One of my favorite albums of any genre, some wild indy psych-jazz from Boston, ca 69. Music from a children's public television show.




Monophonics..."There's A Riot Going On"...In Your Brain...(Ubiquity)
Excellent fuzzy funk album from San Fransisco, out now on the quality Ubiquity label. Here's the 7" version.




Funadelic..."I Bet You"...Funkadelic...(Westbound)




Cane & Able..."Don't Knock My Love"...Cane & Able...(AKT reissue)


Charles Bradley & Menahan Street Band..."Stay Away"...45...(Dunham)
Best Nirvana cover ever.




Brownout..."Stormy Weather"...Oozy...(Nat Geo)


The Funk Ark..."Green Tree, Yellow Sky"...High Noon...(ESL Music)


Joe Quarterman & Free Soul..."The Trouble With Trouble"...Joe Quarterman & Free Soul...(GSF)
Joe Quarterman is another fave artist of mine from DC. One of these days I intend to get him onto the program for an interview and feature.


Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers..."We Need Some Money (Bout Money)"...v/a-Meet Me At The Go Go...(Discotheque)


Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers..."Bustin' Loose" Pt 1...12"...(Source)
The most popular tune from this week's subject.


Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers..."If It Ain't Funky"...Bustin' Loose...(Source)




The Soul Searchers..."Think"...We The People...(Sussex)


Experience Unlimited..."E.U. Freeze"...12"...(Vermack)


Trouble Funk..."Let's Get Small"...12"...(DETT)


Bad Brains..."Sailin' On"...Bad Brains...(ROIR)
One of the greatest bands to ever walk the earth. 




The Nation Of Ulysses..."Spectra Sonic Sound"...13 Point Program To Destroy America...(Dischord)
Here's hoping they accomplish their mission.




The Blackbyrds..."The Baby"...45...(Fantasy)


Marvin Gaye..."A Funky Space Reincarnation"...Here, My Dear...(Tamla)
The DC-born Marvin and the funkiest tune from one of his greatest LPs.
