    probably the two top records from last week were the new Chocolate
    Industries compilation "Rapid Transit" and as I mentioned last week, Soul
    Jazz Records "New Orleans Funk". "Rapid Transit" is what I'd call a mix of
    hip-hop and weird electronics....lots of really nice tracks if you're into
    that sort of mix. the "New Orleans Funk" record is just plain funky...I
    can't get it off my turntables. expect a couple more tracks from those two
    compilations on tonights show.

    And I say:

    I haven't heard the Chocolate Industries comp yet, but that NEW ORLEANS FUNK
    comp really is the bomb. Plus it comes with EXTENSIVE liner notes that can
    serve as a great introduction to the New Orleans sound, if you're not
    already into it. And if you ARE already into it, there are still some great
    and obscure gems on this collection that I bet you don't have! :-)
