The Eccentric Grooves of Logan 5

Some flavors are just too good to sample in small doses. This evening follows a great electronic music Cammies showcase in Chico hosted by BassMint and precedes the opening outdoor daytime Sunset party in San Francisco, so I couldn't help it: I played house , at least as I define and understand it, to include influential disco flavors, some 303 action, humor, depth, noise, soul expansion, funk.

I'd planned to play some of my favorite records on the eve of my birthday, but ended up waiting a week. I think during that week, the records sitting in my flight case matured like a fine wine, setting up a complex bouquet of funk, electronic glitches, politics and pleasure.
