A Downtown Affair – July 15th 2011

Mike and I had the radio to ourselves for the first time in a little while last Friday. It was a nice chance to break out some new tracks. Started off with the title cut from Numero Group’s LP of previously unreleased material from DC’s Father’s Children. After a few soul cuts the set turns a bit cosmic and elevates from there. Tune in this Friday when Foreal People return to the studio!
