Gettin' ol' timey. The very best in bluegrass, newgrass, whograss?, yougrass, country, country-swing, gospel, and whatever else tickles the fickle Mr. Picklesworth. A new initiative from the mighty La Villa Studios and the artist formerly know

AK45: I Remember - Gospel

Dec 16th, 2011 1h 6m

The long overdue sequel to the 07/07/07 mix. "I Remember" keeps things gospel, an oft-overlooked genre that I became acquainted with through my love of soul music. Many of the early soul artists started out in gospel, and "went secular." Artis

Well what can I say? This year was nucking futs. Easily a couple hundred people. At 3:00am, there were buses coming from downtown, completely full of people in costume heading to "that villa party." Was it out of hand? I can't decide that for

AK45: Old Man Me (Deep Soul)

Dec 13th, 2010 1h 8m

Nothing but the best in this one. The problem with collecting records, especially rare 45s, is that you always want to find that one elusive track before putting a mix together. And while you're looking for that one, you find something else th
