The Du-Rites

It's 1979, two albums come out - Just a Touch of Love by Slave, and The Specials self titled effort. Two totally different albums. One is a funk classic and the other is a British ska revival classic. 41 years later because of those two records and the impact they had on two musicians, you got a guy who was playing guitar in El Corte, and you had another guy in the states listening to Baritone Tiplove. They come together, join forces, and are now one of the premier funk bands of the last half decade. Their newest album #5 'A Funky Bad Time' drops in November! We chat about Pablo Martin's (guitar, bass, synthesizer) journey through music as well as the gems you know and love from J-Zone (drums, organ, etc) who comes back to the podcast after a year. Enjoy!
