Back In The Day # 1

I LOVE old school Soul, R&B, and Blues. As a matter of fact, when I was growing up I listened to more old school music than contemporary music because we didn't have cable t.v. or a radio with a working antennae in my home for years. I think it's important that we know our musical heritage, so starting this week I'm going to do a blog post where I turn you on to old school music that most young people haven't heard before. If there is a song that you think I should feature, just send me a message and let me know. I just might use it.


Old School Pick #1

  2. I LOVE Invitation. It's one of my favorite songs. I'm sorry about the other tracks. I'll fix the problem and let you know when they're working. I never had this problem with imeem.

  3. Invitation is my joint.... I like this one song called Someday, I forgot who made it but Common sampled it in his song Truly. I feel you on the music... it was real then... none of this pattie cake crap they play now
