Thanks to all the Residents who pledged their support to the Rockhouse over the past 2 weeks during our Fall Pledge Drive. Thank you!! We celebrate with two wonderful hours of the Good Stuff, including #11 in our countdown of the Best Soul Albums of the 70s and a tribute to the late Blues icon, Mojo Buford.
The wave of lost African gems from the 70s being rescued from obscurity continues and on today’s show we heard deep cuts from El Rego (Benin) and Joni Haastrup (Nigeria) alongside shiny contemporary pearls.
