Most people know James Brown as the Godfather of Soul.
But Brown has also long had a taste for jazz.
Inspired by the music of Frank Sinatra,
Brown teamed up with the Dee Felice Trio
to record his own unique versions of Sinatra-associated standards
like “Strangers in the Night” and “All the Way,”
along with jazzed-up renditions of his hits “Cold Sweat”
and “There Was a Time.”
The intimately swinging results revealed a little-known facet of Brown’s funky self

Three Slices Of Old School Pizza

Kid Capri The King Of Mixtapes
In the early 70's, within the urban enclave known as the South Bronx,
rap music was just getting noticed by its disenfranchised citizens.
It was during this same time,
that an 8-year-old by the name of
David Anthony Love
received his first mixer.
With youth on his side coupled with the determination to succeed,
he began to hone his skills
by DJ'ing at block parties and hitting the local club circuit.
It wasn't long before others took notice.
Relying on his entrepreneurial skills to keep up with the demand,
led him to record his live sets on tape and sell them on 145th Street in Harlem.

Thus began one of the pioneers of the modern day mixtape.
This Kid Was Kid Capri
Here Are Three Classics Mixtapes From 1989

Know Your Classics

Afrika Bambaataa's Death Mix.
Kid Capri's 52 Beats.
Various recorded performances at the T-Connection.
All of them, among ones infinitely more obscure,
are revered and fetishized among obsessive hip-hop mixtape connoisseurs.
While a few of these tapes sound fresh and relevant today,
the vast majority are trumpeted solely
for their historical significance and collectible nature,
furthering one's credibility in the never-ending authenticity debate.
None of these mixtapes are ones you would, in good conscience, give to your curious friend and say,
"If you still don't care for hip-hop mixtapes after this, I doubt anything would change your mind."
Enter DJ Q-Bert...
