Goin' places.

Good stuff hitting the turntables this week at the Groove.   Nashville soul man DeRobert Adams just dropped his 2nd full length with his crack band, The Half-Truths.  Sweet!  Meanwhile, on the other side of the soul spectrum, Ethiopian jazz legend Mulatu Astatke just released a new one with a new incarnation of his band, Steps Ahead. Killer! Plus, the usual funkiness will ensue, including more from Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings and tributes to two jazz legends whose passing in late December slipped under the radar!
