Soul Station π: 70s Funk a Romp

DJ π takes Soul Station π deep into the funk mines for a two-part groove fest covering 1971 to 1978—from obscure bangers to undeniable classics.

We kick off with The Bar-Kays’ lost track from Black Rock, slide through Baby Huey, The Jade, and The Soul Searchers, and close with Maceo Parker’s A Funky Tale to Tell. The second set heats up with Fatback Band, The Meters’ Hey Pocky Way, Isley Brothers, Graham Central Station, Slave, and Chuck Brown’s Bustin’ Loose, a track that lit up D.C. and helped birth go-go.

Personal memories, killer grooves, and pure funk history. As DJ π says: Wholesome Radio always gets you to the right height.
