Comment:

A mix of songs from late '74 and early '75 when black performers were at the center of attention. The link on the first song title goes to a 93meg size mp3 of the mix which is available for the next week. As a bonus, I'm making available (the link positioned over the second song title) an mp3 of a mix I posted here on 2/25/05 entitled 1974-76 (Boogie Down). That mix will be available for a week as well. The picture is of the Ohio Players (the only group where I used more than one song from).
