The Parkdale Funk Show has always set out to recognize the work of often overlooked or forgotten musicians of the past. I have a deep passion and love of the genres represented on my website. However, one thing that I have been guilty of is not giving enough respect to the new wave of current musicians keeping the soul and funk sounds alive. I’m all about the digging and turning up “unknown” gems, but some of the best material out there is easily available online or in your local record shop. So this episode entitled “The New Funk Mix” is all about giving respect to the soul brothers and sisters out there keeping the scene alive.

I’ve added everyone’s website to the playlist, so be sure to check each one out and give them some support if you like what you hear!

Enjoy the funk! (All 45s!)
