Hot & Warped playlist from 7/8...with my guest Phil Straub

Thanks for joining me for this thing we call Hot & Warped. An eclectic all-vinyl radio program which airs live every Monday night 10-midnight (EST) at WMUA.org. The show features classic & contemporary, rare & reissue, weird & straight musics. To hell with weak ears!
Thanks to Rockmaster Rob for filling in last week while I was away. Check out his record label, Sedimental, here. And occasionally he will pop up on WMUA filling in for various DJs. Thanks a ton, Rob!
My guest this week was Phil Straub, of WRSI (The River)'s very popular show Funky Friday. Chock full of funk, soul, R&B gems, you can catch it every Friday from 6-midnight at that station. For this occasion Phil brought some other flavors of his liking, from country-jazz to surf to bebop to hiphop to crazy rock. Playlist is posted below.

I remember listening to these crazy R&B comps Savage Kick (there's a whole series) when I was a 19-yr old clerk at Boston's Looney Tunes (RIP).

Hal Singer..."Hot Rod"...Rent Party...(Savoy Jazz)
I was only familiar with the afro-jazz stuff that Singer made later on, this was much earlier than that.
