Album of the Day: Chuck E. Weiss – Extremely Cool (2000)
To mark the death last week of the man who Rickie Lee Jones immortalised in song in 1979 we have his second album on the virtual turntable. You’ll find everything from blues to zydeco via beat poetry and rock ‘n’ roll in this down-home collection of music.
This album is on my Desert Island Disks list.

Album of the Day: Grant Smith and the Power – Keep On Running (1968)
One of Toronto’s best R&B bands in the late sixties – I remember seeing them at the Club Bluenote on Yonge Street around the time this album was released. Great live band.

A little Toronto Funk/Soul from Mrs. Domenic Troiano.
Pity that Spotify has never heard of her … the YouTube link has extra tracks appended, including her single “Just as Bad as You ”
