This week we lost Jazz, Soul and Spoken Word giant Gil Scott-Heron, so we dashed up a special tribute. Dog starts off his set with a taste of Gil's "Reron", before bouncing into a set of funky Summer madness! Groovy beats and funky rump shakers abound as he drops choices from the '60s, '70s and '80s! He then morphs into a funky Summer House set! Classic Jam-On!

I then complete the Scott-Heron tribute by throwing in 4 choice cuts of varies styles from the master, then follow that up with a nice Summer jazzy, funky blend of my own. Here's my playlist:

Gil Scott-Heron - "The Bottle"
Gil Scott-Heron - "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised"
Gil Scott-Heron - "Lady Day & John Coltrane"
Gil Scott-Heron - "Angel Dust"
