On this week’s “Testify! With Larry Grogan”, it’s 2 hours of brass, horns, and funk from the late 1960s and early 1970s. This week includes music from The Fabulous Flippers, Blood, Sweat, and Tears, Chicago, Electric Flag, and Ballin’ Jack. If the riffs in these tracks sound familiar, it’s because a lot of them have been sampled in hit songs by your favorite rap/hip-hop artists. The playlist and archive of the show can be found here for your listening pleasure.
“Testify! With Larry Grogan” airs every Thursday from 3 to 5 p.m. Eastern on WFMU’s Give The Drummer Radio stream.
“Eleanor Rigby wears a face she keeps in a jar.” You know who else keeps faces in jars? Serial killers. You know who else lives alone in a church? Psychopaths. The priest wiped dirt from his hand after she died and was buried. The priest finally had to put his foot down and put down Eleanor Rigby, serial killer and horror boss. OK, also the Hunchback of Notre Dame may also be a serial killer, but that’s for another day. [
