Happy Valentines with The Emotions

Disco Monk wishes you a Happy Valentines Day with The Emotions.  This fabulous R&B all girl trio were the Hutchinson sisters from Chicago and they are one of my all time favorite of the girl groups. They made impeccable and well produced music during the late '60s and '70s. They were also associated with Earth, Wind and Fire by performing live with them and collaborating on their timeless classic "Boogie Wonderland". They also worked with the late Issac Hayes as well.  Ms. Wanda, Pamela and Sheila were huge on the dance floors 1976 with their dance classic "I Don't Want To Loose You" and "Best Of My Love" from their LP  Flowers released that same year.  My friend Wiki told me that they still continue to perform and make personal appearances.   So here is one of their lesser known early singles from 1969 that I could always dance to and just seems fitting for this Valentine's Day.  Wishing you a lot of love always and specially today. Enjoy!

So I Can Love You - The Emotions

March Mix

"Beware of the idles of March"...It's hard not to escape that thought as I write this post with all the insanity that has happened this month.  Starting on a positive side with the peaceful culmination of the Egyptian uprising then the earthquake, tsunami  and nuclear tragedy in Japan and now another war in the Middle East in  Libya.   All having major global implications impacting humanity on so many deeper levels.  With all of that said as the world mourns,  I  was inclined to make a mix that reflects hope, love, freedom and redemption amidst tragedy and death.    The March Mix features a healthy dose of Jazz, soul, gospel,  disco, house and a nice emphasis on some great Japanese acts that I felt right for this mix.
The emphasis here is of hope, freedom, rebirth and a bit of escape during this hard times.  Enjoy!
