3:33⅓ with The Pharaohs

I don’t think I’ve mentioned that I’m playing all these beautiful records on Jazz88. I DJ there every weekday from 3-7pm, in fact I get started early on Fridays, doing an all new music show at Noon and starting my regular shift early at 2:30. Tune the F in. I loved the Bay Area label Ubiquity so much in the 90s that I pretty much bought everything they released. Including the Pharaohs release “In the Basement”. So when I saw the debut album from The Pharaohs, The Awakening, on sale at Barely Brothers I had to grab it. I love a large group putting down intense funk grooves with a powerful horn section and supporting percussion performance. It’s my speed, I hope you dig it too.
