I believe this deserves a separate thread ...
On Friday, February 27, 11 pm - 1 am EST, Midnight Soulstice will present another Soul radio slam dunk.
We'll dedicate this show to the mighty Mandrill.
One of funk's most progressive outfits, Mandrill's jam-heavy brand of funk was liberally infused with Latin, Caribbean, and jazz influences, plus blues, psychedelia, African music, and straight-up rock. Their freewheeling approach was a definite influence on the Parliament-Funkadelic collective (an early incarnation of which actually served as their opening act), and their grooves have been sampled by numerous hip-hop acts in modern days.
They are most known for their 1973 hit Fencewalk, but every single one of their releases on Polydor, and later on Arista and United Artists is an absolute must for any fan of good music.
Midnight Soulstice co-host DJ Pari played a role in Mandrill's 1996 comeback and he has toured Europe with the group in 1999, so expect a very personal radio special when Mandrill's founding members Lou and Ric "Doc" Wilson will join us for a two-hour special!
Tune in on 97.3 fm (Richmond) or the world wide livestream on www.wrir.org
If you have any questions for Mandrill, post them here and we'll ask them for you!
