Show 1148
February 17, 2023
Deejay Irie leaves no groove unturned with funk classics from Parliament and the Bar-Kays, scorching bars from Andy Cooper, Serge Gainsbourg's signature "Requiem pour un con", and booming edits by Jorun Bombay, Hedspin and Irie himself. Plus Neal Francis' kaleidoscopic "Strawberry Letter 23", a Brooklyn-Chitown roundtrip with Scone Cash Players and Ron Trent, and a heaping plate of donuts to commemorate Dilla's life and legacy.
