Flashlite #850 – Vinyl Junkyard 20

This is one of our vinyl junkyard specials in which I feature some vintage vinyl that I found cheaply rotting in some bargain bin. First of all, keep digging. It’s not easy to find them as easy as it was 10 or 20 years ago, but it’s still possible. I ran into an awesome collection of funk 45s and in this episode I selected 12 tracks from that collection. They look and sound lovely. And then we close with three tracks by Sly and The Family Stone. Sylvester Sly Stewart passed away earlier this month at the age of 82 and this episode is dedicated to him
