The Drop with Danno on GFN 광주영어방송

We mark this date in 1972 when Curtis Mayfield's "Superfly" soundtrack went to #1, and then rock some more cinematics of the era for part 1, with new soul smoothies for part 2. Dan Lloyd joins us on a slow week for new rock with a selection of bands that over the years have definitely fallen off.

Show Notes

As broadcast October 21, 2021 with plenty of super high for the podcast superflies.  We mark today in 1972, when the definition of "cinematic soul" went to #1 on the Billboard albums chart, as Curtis Mayfield's "Superfly" surely was, is, and shall be.  We also rocked some early 70's from Willie Hutch, Isaac Hayes, and Syl Johnson for the rest of part 1.  For part 2 we got to the new stuff just out, with Neal Francis, The Teskey Brothers, L'eclair, and Bobby Oroza all out with new joints.  For our 2nd half, Dan Lloyd right as rain is back but this week with slim pickings in the rock world, we decided to look over some bands that have fallen off through the years, some of them without a decent track for over a decade...and we of course riffed on why that might be.
