 Peace family.  Dig this: this here is an interview with the legendary Chris Jasper.  Before we closed the doors on our days over at Global Scale Radio with my brothers Tim, Aaron, Lee, Rome, Reno, Shadonis, and everyone else I've forgotten, we interviewed Chris Jasper in 2013.  He was so gracious and great to talk to.  I'll try to track down that interview somewhere in the mix. That said, we were able to interview him again in 2016, and this interview picks up, where the first interview in 2013 left off.  Sit back, and let this interview be of some great joy to you. We sprinkle some great jams in the midst of it all, with some Dwele, Tony Toni Tone, Luther Vandross and Cheryl Lynn, and the list goes on and on.  Thanks as always for tuning in, and remember--- Tell a friend, to tell a friend, to tell a friend, all about The Throwback Lounge.

Yes, indeed family, another summer is slowly leaving us.  Like most summers, it's always a busy one for us.  It has also had its own set of challenges this time around as well. However, we've all learned to adjust and make the most of crazy situations. In spite of the subtractions, we're always reminded of that joy that will continue to be ever-present in our midst.  To put it plainly, our joy is our power. Get into our joy, and the rest will be easy work. Now that we've got the good word out of the way, let's move onward with the show.  In this episode, we get it in with a nice gem from Mac Ayres, a little bit of D'angelo, a sprinkle of Brit funk from Lynx and Savanna, a nice tribute to the late Jesse Powell, a bit of the "Bad Boy Of Indie R&B", Bey Bright, and the list goes on and on.  If you have a request, by all means, drop us a line at greatsoulradio@gmail.com, and we'll have your jam ready by the next show.

We see you standing tall family, keep striving.  Now, let's talk about the legendary Michael Henderson.  He was that dude. We can safely say that Michael Henderson is your bass man's favorite bassist. We lost him back on July 19, 12 days after his 71st birthday.  Michael Henderson may be gone from us on the earth, yet his legacy continues to be a part of our listening pleasure for many years to come.  From his days with Stevie Wonder, to his time with Miles Davis, to his solo career as a songwriter, (written for Phyllis Hyman, Jean Carn, The Dramatics, and countless others), performer, musician, etc., Michael Henderson's legacy will continue to shine.  Now, we couldn't find the original show from previous years, yet we have this episode that brings everything out from the original episode, so we suggest you press play and enjoy.  Thanks as always for tuning in, and remember---- tell a friend, to tell a friend, to tell a friend, all about The Throwback Lounge.

Absolutely family, we stay up on it, even when it all seems insurmountable to overcome.  The words of the day are simply "no excuses."  Nope, there will be no excuses, especially when it seems like life is trying to get at us physically and spiritually.  No matter what, continue to fight back. We don't know who needs to hear this, yet we hope these words of wisdom will help you be even more empowered.  With that said, onward with the show.  In this episode, we get it in with some rare groove classics from Advance and The O'Jays, a smooth one from Secret Night Gang, a sprinkle of David Bowie, Steve Arrington's Hall Of Fame, and the list goes on and on.  Always remember, if you have a request, by all means, drop us a line at greatsoulradio@gmail, and we'll have your song on for the next broadcast.  Thanks as always for tuning in, and remember--- tell a friend, to tell a friend, to tell a friend, all about The Throwback Lounge.

What's good, family?  I see you standing tall, and stepping strong.  We keep progressing without stress.  Now, we move on.  Mint Condition (Stokley, Larry, Homer, Rickey, Jeffrey, and Keri) have held down the groove for over 3-plus decades.  Their melding of r&b, funk, jazz, and neo-soul has entertained countless fans throughout their storied career.  Mint Condition's many hits continue to have a place in many old school, and new school, r&b formats.  The question that was presented to us 7 years ago, by way of one of our favorite Facebook groups, was this: is Mint Condition one of the important bands of the last 40 years?  Mind you, this question was asked back in 2015, and there was a myriad of responses, some chat members said no, some were in the middle, and there were those who resoundingly said yes.  We were of the latter.  So, with that said, as we're in 2022, from 1975 to right now, Mint Condition is still one of the most important bands of our time.  See, from the time we all heard the album

What's good, family? We see you standing tall, in spite of all that could throw you off of your path. Remember, we're still on our marathon journey.
