Maggie's Farm

Again, thanks to "International Rare Groove" radio, I have found another amazing song. I already knew about this by Bob Dylan, seen here:

But the version I heard tonight is by Solomon Burke! I was in love within the first 10 seconds. Funky, soulful and fun. A very different rendition than what I am used to. Hope you like the funky side of "Maggie's Farm"!

Internation Rare Groove is where it's at!


I have a hard time turning on the radio and finding a station that I can listen to. There's a local public radio jazz station that I like, but it won't do for all times! When I'm at home, and not listening to records, I found a more than decent online station through iTunes. It's called "International Rare Groove". There are times that they throw in a song that leaves me wondering, but for the most part, these guys know what's going on! Every time I listen they either remind me about a song that I should add to my collection or more often introduce me to many amazing new tunes. It's "class in session" for old soul, funk, disco, and reggae tunes, with a little latin soul, bossa nova, tropicalia, afro beat/soul and jazz thrown in for good measure!
