2023.10.20 Orion Smiles Upon Us

<p>As broadcast October 20, 2023 with plenty of meteorites and lightshow magic to spare.  It's another feelgood Friday and we've melded our Space Madness series into the mix as well, as the very long tail of dust and magic hits earth's atmosphere this weekend from the visit of Haley's Comet almost 40 years ago in 1986.  Known as the Orionid Meteor showers, we started to think of it as Orion Smiling down upon us from way out in space, and our playlist reflected that to get your weekend going in the right way.<br>#feelthegravity<br><strong>Orion Smiles Upon Us</strong></p><p>10/20/2023<br><strong>Tracklist (st:rt)</strong></p><p><strong>Part 1 (00:00)</strong></p><p>James Brown – Sunny (Funk Master JB vs Funkmaster JS Hardboiled remix)</p><p>James Brown – There Was A Time (Kenny Dope edit)</p><p>War – Ballero</p><p>Sam &amp; Dave – Hold On (I’m Coming) (King Most remix)</p><p>Clarence Reid – Masterpiece (Kenny Dope edit)</p><p>Syl Johnson – Different Strokes</p><p> </p><p><strong>Part 2 (30:03)</strong></p><p>Yann Tomita – We Travel The Spaceways</p><p>Space Dukes – Sunshine On Venus</p><p>Sweeps – Space Blues</p><p>Sun Ra – Love In Outer Space (In Session for BBC Jazz on 3)</p><p> </p><p><strong>Part 3 (58:29)</strong></p><p>Quelle Rox – Space Parade</p><p>Dragonfruit – Space Traveler</p><p>The Midnight Hour feat Cee-Lo Green – Questions</p><p>Say She She – In My Head</p><p>Kendra Morris – Catch The Sun</p><p>Roy Ayers – The Golden Rod</p><p>Roy Ayers – Life Just A Moment Pt 1 &amp; 2</p><p> </p><p><strong>Part 4 (90:22)</strong></p><p>A Tribe Called Quest – The Space Program</p><p>Cortex – La Rue</p><p>The Supremes – He’s My Sunny Boy</p><p>The Impressions – We’re A Winner</p><p>Hank Ballard &amp; The Midnight Lighters – From The Love Side</p><p>Freddie Hubbard – Pensativa (Live at Club La Marchal, NYC 1965)</p><p> </p>
