Thanks for listening!
I blanked on Maurice and Mac this afternoon. Maurice McAlister and McLauren Green jumped ship from The Radiants, a Chicago group, to record as a duo for Checkers from 1967 to 1970. They are great and so is their song! I only have the one ("You Left The Water Running") so far;
I'm looking for more.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you again, Snark! What a great show! I listened to it twice.
Highlights include:
Wanda Jackson!!!!!- Wow! Really liked this. I wasn't at all interested in checking this out cuz I'm not too enamored with Jack White, but its a great version..... great production props to the producer.
Suns Of Arqa!!! This points directly to Jah Wobble’s Invaders of the Heart a year or two later, no?
What a find!
Other notables:
Gof4...New drummer, but the first song starts with the attempt to create a "drum riff", like Hugo usedta do. Different sounding vocals, but its quite likable as long as yer not expecting the kinetic/frenetic Gang of the past
Marva Whitney & Osaka Monaurail - legit sound and song!...Does not suffer from modern "funk" productionitis
Creation Rebel/New Age Steppers (I wanna play that song)
Kiran Ahluwalia (kind of a cover, no? Interested in hearing more)
Great album title, Mogwai....they’ve fallen off the radar for me, but I liked this track
Thank you Snark!
I missed you, Mr. Herman. It's foggy when you're not out there...
