I didn't expect to be here half an hour. Wow. Love the Djin Djin-although the pictures of Haiti are hearbreaking.
ReplyDeleteA great assortment-you can have your boy bands, I'll take these women.
Kate Laity has chastised me for putting together such stacks, but I fear it's the old weekly dj in me (this blog is named after the show, and the show was named for the Freedom Suite by Sonny Rollins and Freedom Now Suite by Max Roach and Oscar Brown, Jr....I was unaware of Michael McDonald's album at the time). And 8.5 Souvenirs had a succession of female vocalists, too...but their longest-term singer, most represented in the videos at hand, struck me more as pretty than quite as talented as the instrumentalists. Indeed, I do tend to dote on bands with at least some gender balance...
