You will hear all kinds of music on Friday at Family Affair at the Leith Arches with DJ's John Buckley and James Sim. This tune by Manu Dibango "Soul Makossa " was a seminal tune at David Mancuso's Loft parties in New York. When the kids start "shuffling" about 2 minutes in they could be in the Highland Room at the Blackpool Mecca. The video is joyous from start to finish. As Gil said "ain't no new thing" also MJ stole the intro for "Don't stop til you get enough".

The countdown has started for Friday's Family Affair at the Leith Arches. with DJ's John Buckley and James Sim. This one was big in at the All-dayers in the 80s and sounded really good at Cleethorpes at the weekend so I pulled it off the shelves for my tune of the day.
