Wadin' Through

A new feature to the Blam Jam Summer Specials arrives this Sunday,
where I'll be featuring a different version of the song "Wade In The Water"
each week.

Taking a similar cue from last year's "Sunny Interval" where I played

a different version of Bobby Hebb's "Sunny", every week you'll hear
a unique take on the gospel standard that currently seems more than
fitting regarding the weather we've had recently.

Expect to hear versions by Eva Cassidy, Mary Mary, Marlena Shaw,

and this week I'll be spinning a rendition from The Blind Boys Of Alabama.

Also this week I've got a soulful house stunner from 
HandsOfDj_5 (yes that's how it's written), Gregory Porter gets together with the Rongetz Foundation,
and a latin cover of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" by Senor Coconut.

Make sure you're listening this Sunday!

6pm CSR FM.

Remembering Jose Roberto Bertrami

The keyboard player for Brazilian jazz-funk stalwarts Azymuth passed away earlier this week and it's only right that I play a few of his tunes on this
Sunday's radio show from both Azymuth and his solo material.

But just to wet the appetite here's a few tunes from over the years;

"Jazz Carnival" (1978)

 

"Festa Nativa" (1982)



"Em Marica"
(2002)



"E Muhler"
(2011)




Listen in from 6pm this Sunday on CSR FM. 97.4 or online at csrfm.com.

Boiling Beats On Their Way

Blam Jam takes a break from CSR's airwaves this week to make way for coverage from the Lounge On The Farm festival.

On it's return however you'll be hearing the first of 6 shows 
devoted in the annual tradition to the warmer sounds of the season
ranging from reggae, to latin, to soulful summer house.

Here's what you can expect when I'm back on the 15th of July;

Frootful - "Colours"

 

One of the finest from the Freestyle record label.

Emma Shaheen - "Sun Will Shine" (Tall Black Guy Remix)

 

Hope that's wet the appetite. Looking forward to your company

in two Sundays time!
