Love hearing some EW&F on a Sunday morning!

EW&F is pretty good, glad you like it as well!!
gboss 8:39:12 AM
I love the 3+3 era of the isley brothers
TAndy 8:39:16 AM
Finally off of work, now I can jam.

Also, morning and welcome!

Bringing the summer barbecue jams this morning omg
Inci (host) 8:58:33 AM
Exactly haha! It's a major throwback to me as well!
Parrscream 8:58:43 AM
Bringing back some major elementary school and middle school memories with these last two songs!
Inci (host) 8:59:33 AM
I think because of the mislabelling of R&B for a long time, most pop songs are still labelled as R&B, and considered in its evolution, which is only partially true
TAndy 8:59:44 AM
Listener Ossy would be on cloud 9 if he were listening right now
TAndy 9:00:06 AM
Hey if it's any consolation I still have trouble deciphering between the lines of R&B and soul
Inci (host) 9:00:36 AM
Yeah, I still have major trouble distinguishing those because most songs are either both or neither it seems
Inci (host) 9:00:54 AM
Hopefully in the next hour, the songs will be more recognizably R&B
Chef Emeril Lagasse 🍳 9:05:45 AM
