Wheedle's Groove - Kearney Barton - R&B / Soul - CD

2009 release that features modern material recorded by an all-star band made up of members of Seattle's finest Funk and Soul acts from the '60 s and '70 s. Magic that could only have been seen on a small stage, in a packed theatre, in August of 2004. That was when Light in the Attic released a landmark compilation called Wheedle's Groove: Seattle's Finest in Funk & Soul 1965-75, and to celebrate brought together many of those original Seattle Funk and Soul artists for a one-night-only reunion concert, led by young blood music director and KEXP DJ Johnny Horn, and featuring Robbie Hill, Overton Berry, Patrinell Staten, Ron Buford, and KYAC's very own #1 boss-jock Robert Nesbitt. The following day, still on a high from the show, LITA, Horn, DJ Mr. Supreme, and lead-producer Dynomite D (Beastie Boys) birthed the idea of cutting a new album covers and originals - with some of these local music legends. And this is that album!
