Winston Walls - Boss of the B-3 1993

You learn something new everyday so today let it be some B-3. From AMG - Long overdue (like about 30 years!) debut album for Walls who is, as one reviewer put it, "the best organ player you never heard of." You can hear him now in live concert with long-time friend and rival Jack McDuff. You guessed it. McDuff and Walls battle it out as in days of yore, note for note and screeching chord against chord. This is a classic jam battle with a few vocals thrown in for diversion. McDuff is bound to let Walls (after all these years) be heard, so he does not struggle too hard. Good funk fun - Recorded October 25 & 26, 1993.

Ed O.G. & the Bulldogs - Roxbury 02119 1994

The artists that rebound from sophomore slumps are persistent which does not always mean quality. Thankfully, Ed O.G. has always crafted some of the best hip-hop around with or without major label support and the resulting output is top quality hip-hop from Boston. This came out in early 1994 after label delays. Song 4 does work better in summer. Enjoy.
