[Guest Josep Manuel Concernau Robles]

RIP, Edwin Birdsong, great songwriter and musician. IMHO, was seminal in psychedelic funk, his album "Supernatural" sounds like a mixture of Jimmy Hendryx and Bootsy Collins and his PIR album was a breeze of fresh air for the label in 1979. Also a label "tagged as discofied" as Salsoul received some prestige with his progressive disco-funk "Funktastic" LP. Some times the greats get together: Roy Ayers and Edwin!
