sessions 'jam on it' - Part 1
listening to newcleus's jam on it (1984)...love this beat - reminds me of the guys over at santa monica pier we saw four weeks ago -they were hipping on the deck,battling...pretty cool moves. it also reminds of the days at chinle bashas where guys use to battle to hip-hop/electro music..haha. i was always fascinated by the music and the whole movement -quite the seduction. it was evident, us rez folks tapped into mainstream through various conduits (mine was radio, hit parader magazines, word of mouth). yay, we are all connected through music. there i was watching dudes, like preston's crew and my bud, gerald charley battle. (didn't know large format cardboard was valuable! ha)
i love listening to various styles of music. being saturated by dad's country 8-tracks (charlie pride, linda ronstandt, waylon, buck owens, eddie rabbit, johnny horton, and the list goes on) - that plus my sister's disco & punk music will always ground me to a genre of music.
