That Driving Beat - Episode 240

Originally Broadcast December 11, 2022It's a swinging mod dance party tonight, with classics by Googie Rene Combo, Etta James, Mable John, The Tempests, Mary Wells, Chuck Jackson Darrell Banks, plus a super-rare primitive garage rocker by the Customs Five that James never dreamed he'd find in a box of junk in an Indiana flea market (thanks to the In The Past Garage Rock Podcast for introducing me to the song). We also recognize two legends of soul music we lost in the past week: J.J.
