Guitarist, fiddler, and vocalist Carl Story became known as "The Father of Bluegrass Gospel Music" over his decades-long career. After initially pursuing secular bluegrass, he went on to record one of the greatest oeuvres of religious bluegrass making him a legend at the time of his death in 1995. Story and his band became fixtures on the bluegrass festival circuit, and he toured consistently even after he entered semi-retirement in Greer, SC, outside of Greenville, where he worked as a disc jockey. Get On Board indeed.

Callen Radcliffe Tjader, Jr. a.k.a. Cal Tjader (July 16, 1925–May 5, 1982) was a master of Latin Jazz vibraphone, probably defining the genre for all time. If there ever was an example of how the energy of America affects its inhabitants, it is Cal Tjader. Born 16 July 1925 in St. Louis, Missouri to touring Swedish American vaudevillians. He ultimately met and played with a number of great early jazz musicians around San Francisco after WWII. Cubano Chant features the blisteringly smooth electric keys of Clare Fisher.

Country Boy's Dream was recorded in 1967, during the lowest commercial and personal ebb of Perkins' career. It also represent his first serious foray into straight radio-ready country music. The lyrics have a biographic legitimacy perhaps unexpected in the genre and he simply shreds a six string. Carl Perkins' songs personified the rockabilly era, and Carl Perkins' sound personifies the rockabilly sound more so than anybody involved in it, because he never changed. Perkins' songs were recorded by artists (and friends) as influential as Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and Johnny Cash, which further cemented his place in the history of popular music.Called "the King of Rockabilly", he was inducted into the Rock and Roll, the Rockabilly, and the Nashville Songwriters halls of fame; and was a Grammy Hall of Fame Award recipient.

Wilson Simonal de Castro, a Brazilian singer, was born in Rio de Janeiro on February 26, 1939. He had great success during the 60's and early 70's in pop music. The beginning of the 70's was a troubled period in the Brazilian politics. At that time, he was accused of helping the military government by denouncing fellow artists who were involved in political left-wing movements. Partly because of these accusations, his career stalled and he never recaptured his initial success. This is a really cool piece of Brazilian ethno-pop.

Curtis Ousley (February 7, 1934 – August 13, 1971), who performed under the name King Curtis, was an American tenor, alto, and soprano saxophonist and session musician who played rhythm and blues, rock and roll, soul, funk and soul jazz. He was also a musical director and record producer for Aretha Franklin and other top R&B artists. Provided sax solos on numerous hits in the 60's and inspired nearly every artist he worked with. Curtis was loved and respected by both the music establishment and hippy freaks like Duane Allman and Delany Bramlett. Soul Serenade is one of his best known compositions. Tragically he was murdered entering his home in Harlem in 1971.

Houston Person (born November 10, 1934) is an American jazz tenor saxophonist and record producer. Although he has performed in the hard bop and swing genres, he is most experienced in and best known for his work in soul jazz with people like Bernard Purdie, Melvin Sparks, Virgil Jones, and others. His best stuff never seemed to stray far from his roots in R&B, as "Sweet Buns" indicates. And this might be one of the worst covers ever made.

Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe was an Igbo Nigerian Highlife musician, from southeastern Nigeria. His career spanned over 40 years, and he is one of the most well known Igbo highlife musicians. His loping layered grooves are elemental to the West African sound. His compositions frequently occupied an entire side of wax and often aspects of samba and meringue. A highly danceable groove.

Bow Thayer is one of Vermont's best kept secrets. A talented singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, his profile was raised somewhat by recording an album with Band drummer Levon Helm. A terrific roots rock album, this track is just a solid bit of American songwriting and playing.

Johnny Otis, one of the great American blues and rhythm and blues pianist, vibraphonist, drummer, singer, bandleaders and impresarios, was born John Alexander Veliotes to greek immigrant parents. Perhaps best known for his hit Willie and the Hand Jive, Otis recorded literally hundreds of tracks often including the prodigious guitar work of his son Shuggie Otis. As this track demonstrates, he always had a crack band and knew how to groove.

Eddie Palmieri (born December 15, 1936), is a Grammy Award winning Puerto Rican pianist, bandleader and musician, best known for combining jazz piano and instrumental solos with Latin rhythms. In 1971, Palmieri recorded Vamonos Pa'l Monte (Going to the Mountain) with his brother Charlie at the organ from which this hard hitting Nuyorican groove is snagged. His music from this period reflects the influences of the Brown Power movement and a recognition that Puerto Ricans in NYC had their own cultural identity.

A fantastic bit of tripped out funk! Cane & Able were one of the many groups that came out of the collective surrounding the Lafayette Afro-Rock Band in the early 70s -- and like that group, Cane & Able draw on a wide range of influences to create a heavy funky sound. The album mixes the African influences used by Lafayette Afro-Rock Band the with more of a hard soul vocal approach, with some cuts sounding a bit like material from Atlantic albums of the late 60s, but handled with more of a fuzzy edge.

The Bhundu Boys were a Zimbabwean band that played a mixture of chimurenga music with American rock and roll, disco, country, and pop influences. Their style became known as jit, and is quite popular across Africa, with some international success. The name came from bhundu (meaning "Bush" or "jungle"), in reference to the young boys who used to aid the nationalist guerrilla fighters in the 1970s war against the white minority government of what was then Rhodesia. Lead singer Biggie Tembo (Biggie Rodwell Tembo Marasha) was just such a Bhundu boy.

Jackie Mittoo was a Jamaican keyboardist, songwriter and musical director. He was a founding member of The Skatalites and was a mentor to many younger performers, primarily through his work as musical director for the Studio One record label. His brilliant compositions integrated funk, R&B, mento, calypso. Grand Funk is a wicked early 70's jam.

LA Sunshine is about as positive a groove as one could possibly compose about Los Angeles and it's ubiquitous sun. WAR was a multiracial and multiethnic band that originated in fertile ghettos of Chicago during the end of the 60's. The band flourished throughout the 70's scoring several hits and evolving personnel. Just a really sick band.
