EP154: Fishbone "Truth & Soul"

<div class="">Fishbone’s eclectic mix of Funk, Punk, Ska and Metal hit its commercial peak with 1988’s <em>Truth & Soul.  </em>Not as gritty or chaotic as previous releases but unmistakably Fishbone.  Their music could only be made by them, six African American guys from LA wearing their hearts on their sleeves and on <em>T&S</em> deciding to express their social consciousness and the Black experience on record.  It’s a complicated party music and a fun conversation. </div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""><u class="">Recommended Listening </u></div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""><u>Songs</u></div> <div class="">The Promise Ring <em>Is This Thing On?</em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/track/5dgyKLZKxfreuDaDQwEj9U</div> <div class=""><u> </u></div> <div class="">Curtis Mayfield <em>Freddie’s Dead</em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/track/2ouFIPC3O1HNBcVTw1d9AN</div> <div class=""><u> </u></div> <div class="">The Vandals <em>Urban Struggle</em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/track/7LqPbpF0tmGOkBBmXKmfI8</div> <div class=""><u> </u></div> <div class=""><u>Book</u></div> <div class="">John Doe & Tom DeSalva <em>More Fun in the New World:  The Unmaking and legacy of LA Punk</em></div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""><span class= "">https://www.amazon.com/More-Fun-New-World-Unmaking/dp/0306922126/ref=pd_lpo_14_img_0/140-2122495-8781915?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=0306922126&pd_rd_r=a64429e4-f450-4513-836d-821e77d9b878&pd_rd_w=E3aq1&pd_rd_wg=qSbSg&pf_rd_p=a0d6e967-6561-454c-84f8-2ce2c92b79a6&pf_rd_r=427TPYCYCK7YKH2QY8HN&psc=1&refRID=427TPYCYCK7YKH2QY8HN</span></div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""> <div class="" dir="auto"><a class="" href= "http://huntsmanhill.com/">huntsmanhill.com</a><br class="" /> #huntsmanhill<br class="" /> Spotify Playlist:  <a class="" href= "https://open.spotify.com/user/1298220429/playlist/4gy1wWwypkoFS2lUztvZ44?si=waSq07DBQlq3x9G1_nK0pg">https://open.spotify.com/user/1298220429/playlist/4gy1wWwypkoFS2lUztvZ44?si=waSq07DBQlq3x9G1_nK0pg
