OK! The TPTD IS BACK!

After a couple of weeks of being on the disabled list, I am very happy to get back into the swing of things and post a new Triple Play Thurs-Day mix. This week we take a listen to some familiar, as a matter of fact make that HUGE, names in the R&B/Soul music industry. However, as we like to do here at RIBS, we’ll do it in a slightly different way.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the Soundtrack Of My Life (a theme I’ve touched on before here) and I about why and how some of the groups and artists that we know and love achieved that level of status in our hearts and minds. Our trio this week definitely falls into this category, so I figured I would go back to some of their early releases and take a look back at some of their initial efforts.

So, this week we take a trip back to the beginning, back to the early releases of these groups (just before they hit it really big) and sample some of the music they created that hooked us and made us fall in love with them. Therefore it is my pleasure to present to you…

  1. Commodores
  2. Earth, Wind & Fire
  3. The Jackson 5

…the early years!

    3. Speaking of the Commodores, they’re now looking for a musician to join the group for a three city tour! The contest is called Land in the Band. Musicians upload their own version of one of the Commodores top five singles for a chance to tour with the Commodores and win thousands in cash and prizes!
