Manage episode 455490583 series 2884292
Could a single track change the way you hear music? This episode of "Milk Crates and Turntables" promises to explore that possibility with a brand-new focus and format. After a busy November that included a cruise and family holidays, I return to my sanctuary with an upgraded microphone and a commitment to break down one standout song each week. Join me and familiar voices like Allison, Jim, Dave, and Patty as we kick off this fresh chapter, inviting you to engage and share your own thoughts on the tracks that move you.
Revisit the golden era of funk as we highlight the Ohio Players' iconic "Skin Tight" album, a defining moment in music history. Whether you're humming along to "Name That Tune" or just vibing with the beats, we’ll explore the band's transformation from the Ohio Untouchables to funk legends. This isn't just a walk down memory lane—it's a deep dive into how bands like Kool and the Gang and Sly and the Family Stone laid the groundwork for today's artists, who continue to keep the funk alive through sampling and reinterpretation.
Nostalgia hits a high note as we wander through the 70s and 80s, sharing personal stories and pop culture moments that left a mark. From the complex ties in the music industry featuring giants like Sean "Diddy" Combs and Andre Harrell, to the timeless tunes of Sade and Al B. Sure, this episode is rich with music and memories that have shaped our lives. As I approach my 61st birthday and near the milestone of 200 episodes, I reflect on this podcast as my personal "church"—a therapeutic ritual that connects us all through the universal language of music.
