29 12 2009

Tune in tonight for Trav15’s Top 15 of 2009 at about 10pm.  I’m trying to play all tracks that came out this year. Check back for the Top 15 post.





Something To Look Forward To

5 12 2009

At the end of 2008, there was word that the newest Sade studio album would be released in early 2009. Well 2009 came and is on its way out and still nothing. That is, until I saw this. Soldier of Love is Sade’s new album, and sixth release as a band, due out February 8, 2010. It’s been ten years since Lovers Rock came out. I’m curious what Miss Adu and the band will sound like on this new record. They are always on top of their style and have solid records that only need to come out once every ten years. Big Baby Jesus, 2010’s looking good.





Life is for living.

I’m Baaaack

17 11 2009

Took a little vacation with bbq to Californ-I-A, in particular LA, SF, and San Jose. It was the perfect length and we got to hang with some of our really great friends. Saw some good music; explored and galavanted around the cities. Thanks and love to bb, our friends, and Alex for subbing while I was away.

I did make it to all three Amoeba’s, two Rasputin’s, a PooBah, and a Streetlight so I’ll be playing mostly vinyl selections. Tune in for the select cuts and grooves.
