Had a very special guest DJ Soft Touch a.k.a. Clifton from LA’s Funky Sole come by to play an all vinyl set on today’s show. Much to learn from this talented man. And much to see in his record bag!
Catch him every Saturday night for Funky Sole at the Echo in Los Angeles, every last Thursday at Bistro 400’s Downtown Soul night in Santa Ana, and read his words on the Aquarium Drunkard blog…Clifton’s Corner.
