CHRIS MOORE, BROTHER MATT, DEBBIE PARKER AND SLY JOCK AT WAMO REUNION PARTY (Courier Photo/J.L. Martello/File) Earlier this month, when Pittsburghers began discussing the possible return of a jazz radio station to the region, some in the Black community had just one question. Would any of the radio hosts on this new station be Black?
Marvin Gaye I remember when the song "Inner City Blues" first came out. Of course I was a teenager then. I remember it being quite controversial, because of it's title, it's vibe and it's subject matter.
"Inspiration Information/Wings Of Love" by Bob Davis Funk/Soul/Blues/Jazz/Pop/Electronica/Peace & Love (soul-patrol.com)--This is a great album. I have been waiting for this album to appear since the mid 1970's. It's the best album I have heard so far in 2013. The original "Inspiration Information" has actually been a key influencing factor in my thought processes and behavior since I first listened to it in 1974, via WAMO in Pittsburgh. Since that time I have probably listened to it more than any other single album I have ever owned, with the possible exception of Miles Davis "On The Corner."
