jay_dee_a_brief_education_on_the_musical_genius_of-front-large

The good people at Shaman Work Recordings sent me this tribute from DC’s own  DJ 2-Tone Jones about a year after Dilla passed. Its a ROCK SOLID 1 hour 15 minute mix of some of my favorite Jay Dee tracks. I always go a little wild when track #8 starts.  I looked in my archives and realized that I hadn’t posted this musical deliciousness for you guys. Thats my bad!! Check out the tracklist and see for yourself ! Burn a copy in advance for your friends. They’ll want it after they hear it in your car. Enjoy!!
