Mix Eleven

Welcome to 2010 and welcome to VibeRide: Mix Eleven, our first show of a brand spanking new decade. Naturally we wanted to kick the decade off on the funky foot, so this show's packed with outrageously funky cuts spanning from the late sixties right up to the noughties. Patrice rushen, the Sunburst Band and Donald Byrd are back (not a moment too soon). There's debuts for Positive Force, Willie Johnson and Womack & Womack. Plus of course, the ever-present funk stylings of Roy Ayers who we spent New Year's eve with at the Jazz Cafe.
