What an incredible trip into musical alternatives! Now available to stream on demand. www.mixcloud.com/kaleidoscope...

Sometimes as a bonus of my autoimmune disorder, my right wrist gets inflamed. The only thing that seems to help is immobilizing it with a brace. Luckily, this ain’t my first rodeo, so I strapped this sucker on immediately. I should be ok in a day or two. Meanwhile I can feel a bit like a cyborg.

LIVE 8-11pm EST. A sweet, rockin' trip for music nerds. www.mixcloud.com/live/kaleido...

I’m almost always pleased to see a duck. Possibly not if it was unexpectedly in my house, but hell…maybe.

It it wasn’t for Medicaid, I would be dead. I would have died three years ago. I’m immensely grateful for the program my tax dollars helped fund. Medicare is keeping me alive now, along with Social Security disability. Without them, I literally would not make it.

Salutes to Roberta Flack, Jerry Butler, Chris Jaspar, Gwen McCrae, and much more on your syncopation station, the Groove Lounge! Warning: contains nearly as much soul as grandma's biscuits and gravy. Follow that URL and make life better. www.mixcloud.com/kaleidoscope...

A soul-drenched show tonight on the Groove Lounge as I pay tribute to fallen heroes Jerry Butler, Gwen McCrae, and Roberta Flack. Streaming live 8-11pm EST. www.mixcloud.com/live/Kaleido...

"Wow, reality...what a concept."

Happy birthday to my old friend and Albadore family member, the boss DJ Steve Dub.

Time for a nice cup of Earl Grey.

Here comes the sun.

Rewatching one of my all time favorite movies.

Reichlin Small returns to Kaleidoscope Studio to record some horn parts for the forthcoming Albadore album. Thanks Reichie!

An eclectic sound trip for music nerds. Dig the live stream, 8pm-11pm EST... www.mixcloud.com/live/kaleido...

Mid 80s, age about 19. Long time ago in a galaxy not so far away. #tbt

Here's your favorite DJ wayyyy back around 1989 or so. Just a lad with a goofy kerchief around his neck. #tbt

Happy birthday to my godmother, my Auntie Brenda, seen here roughing up my mom a little. She probably deserved it.

Love seeketh not itself to please, Nor for itself hath any care, But for another gives its ease, And builds a Heaven in Hell's despair. - William Blake

A weird, wonderful and deeply nastay album, and a crucial part of your funky breakfast. Dig it proper.

Totally chill.

Happy birthday, Mom. Sheryl Lee Cornelius Absher February 18, 1945 - August 28, 2015

It's gonna make you feel good! Soul, jazz, funk, fusion, etc. streaming now on demand! www.mixcloud.com/kaleidoscope...

Nice! It’s Monday! Make it through the day, and then have a listen to a live stream of soul, jazz, funk, fusion, etc. (aka The Groove Lounge) as a treat. Let’s groove together, tonight at 8pm.

Very special surprise reggae mix recorded on a Saturday night live stream, mostly featuring the productions of the legendary Lee "Scratch" Perry. Loaded with classics and deep cuts! All aboard the Black Ark! www.mixcloud.com/kaleidoscope...

Feeling physically rough today but my caregiver made me a grilled cheese and tomato soup, and a friend brought me coffee AND shoveled my snow, so my soul feels wonderful. Now I’m watching some live John Coltrane on YouTube and waiting for my meds to kick in. Life could be worse.

What's the difference between a hippo and a zippo? One is really heavy. The other one is a little lighter.

Ope! A car is stuck in a snow drift across the street from my house. He tried for about twenty minutes or so to get it out, but seems to have given up, at least temporarily.

Tonight! A surprise live reggae set. Stream it 8pm-11pm EST for some deep 70s roots reggae and dub, all produced by Lee “Scratch” Perry. All aboard the Black Ark! www.mixcloud.com/live/kaleido...

Think I’m gonna do a surprise live reggae set tonight on mixcloud and twitch. 8pm for some deep 70s roots reggae and dub, all produced by Lee “Scratch” Perry. I scored a bunch of rare tracks and I’ve been dying to play them.

Underrated shoulda been classic.

It absolutely blew my mind.

Hello, buddies.

Milo sez “Listen to Diffraction!” Available on all streaming services, or buy the cd on Bandcamp!

Finished rewatching Daredevil today, and boy, does it hold up. Regarding the forthcoming new Disney+ series, all I can say is, D+TV…don’t you dare mess this up. You brought back the original cast, and that’s GREAT. Just keep that writing tight.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

Spinning musical alternatives 8pm-11pm EST. Dig the live stream! www.mixcloud.com/live/kaleido...

Sly Stone fans! What’s your favorite album and song? Mine? Glad you asked. Album: There’s a Riot Goin’ On Song: If You Want Me To Stay #slystone #genius

I have so much great music pulled for tonight's stream! How can I fit five hours of musical alternatives into three? Listen in to Kaleidoscope at 8pm EST and hear me try!

The Sly Stone documentary finally dropped on Hulu today. Hell yes, I’m already watching it. I’ve been salivating for this.
