I remember listening to a tiny portable radio in my bed under the blankets, when all the family were asleep. I used to listen to John Peel's late night show, I think it was Radio Caroline, the pirate rig.

I managed to tape a few broadcasts on a Cassette Recorder 1.0, and pretty much wore them tapes out. Peel used to play the latest interesting releases. 'Mothership Connection' was one of those releases and I became intrigued by this funk music from America.

This track from Funkadelic was a firm favourite with me, and I would request it whenever I went to a disco, it used to drive my mates nuts.

I can't help myself.

Parliament - Mothership Connection (1975).

DJ Marky Mark rings a significant bell in my drink-addled memory.

I lived in the Netherlands at that time, were you quite famous?

Lovin' the mix by the way!

Now I think about it, I'm pretty sure I heard you on BBC Radio One, as well.

Meh the name is same as from a famous DJ / Producer from the 90's 00's.
The great Mark Wahlberg before his acting career.
I never thought of it when taking the name, it just sounded funny as it is also my real name (Mark).

This is the real one.



And thanks for the compliment.

No really, it's excellent! I'm listening right now.

Wahlberg of 'The Gambler' fame, wow, you learn something new everyday. Thanks for that.

Hahaha yeah that's the guy..Great actor and he wasn't too bad in his music days either.
Glad you like the mix. Used to make them on a weekly basis in the late 90's and early 2000's.
Still have my turntables and mix gear but just can't be arsed anymore however I still love music.
Too busy with work, kids, slotting

And I can hear the little mistakes in my mixes, but hey that is why I am not a pro but just an amateur. Got me a job in a nightclub though, long time ago.. those were the days

Xtina ft Lewis Hamilton

How do you mean ft. Lewis Hamilton?

LadyJ, I think it could be hamilton at 2.40 mins, I can't stand the bloke but each to his own....

"According to Metro.co.uk, a music source has revealed that it's none other than Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, performing under the pseudonym XNDA.

Lewis has apparently "teased" his vocals online before, but this is the "first time his voice has been heard on an official song."

I struggle to cope with people that wear trousers like this:

 

[LadyJelena]

Oh Jesus, I've already been sick of his show offs in Formula 1, including bringing Justin Bieber or similar "celebrities" in the garage..and now this.

Oh god we are going to fall out

 

[mack341]

I said I can't stand him but that was a slight exaggeration, he's harmless enough...but I think he's contacted a bad case of beckhamitis, which causes constant obsessions about tattoos and clothing

 

[LadyJelena]

Oh god we are going to fall out

Guess so, especially tomorrow in the race

For the love of God Mack, don't be putting those pictures of Hamilton on here. Not with Glassheart about

His blood pressure has only recently returned to normal after I posted those choice saucy topless Lewis poses. And that was about three months ago!

 

[TheAddict]

I would request it whenever I went to a disco, it used to drive my mates nuts.

I kinda know how your friends felt. Reminds me of many a night during my teen years in clubs..

 

[ed skull murphy]

Ten hours long! HowTF did they get that onto Youtube, lol?

I'm guessing the guy saying 'no' is Barbie's Dad

 

[goatwack]

I mean sure, Barbie Girl is a Hall of Fame classic song of a generation, but even I would struggle with it on loop for 10 hours

A great little gem, even if the embedding doesn't work:

Operatic camp- rock aficionados need look no further than here

Continuing the theme of post-apocalyptic dystopianism, from 1974, here's
David Bowie - Future Legend / Diamond Dogs

 

[goatwack]

I'd like to say I was there, but I'd be lying, as I was 14

Still, Sunday is never the same sans Nirvana

 

[ed skull murphy]

Soft Machine - Fifth (1972)

 

[goatwack]

You have to remind yourself of not only how good they were as a band, but their political foresight

Standout tracks from a great album!

Avishai Cohen Quartet - Smash, live at the Blue Note club, NYC, 2006

Jimmy Greene, soprano sax; Sam Barsh, piano; Avishai Cohen, electric bass; Mark Guilliana, drums.

Cohen shows who's boss by casually knocking out a bit of flamenco on his bass guitar, a true virtuoso.

 

[goatwack]

His break-through album, he was untouchable back then

Probably the best MM piece?
