I was downstairs wrangling the laundry earlier today, and clicked on the radio to KEXP. Being Sunday morning, it was Johnny Horn. Man, this guy is great. Every week it’s nothing but the best soul and funk, and always Johnny picks the tunes that just flow so well together.

Today’s segment that I caught was just killer funky — I tuned in right at the beginning of a fantastic live version of “Having a Party” by Sam Cooke, followed up by a tune by a band called “Little Beaver”, and then a set of kick-butt tunes from an album called “James Brown’s Funky People 3” with some great singing from Lyn Collins. I turned it up loud and it made for a very entertaining laundry session…

You can listen to the streaming archive here, and I think they’ll have the show up for a couple of weeks.

P.S. you can always catch the live feed here, or on your mobile device here.
