This episode was a rerun of the December 19th, 2021 episode of Funkaliciously Jazztastic Hour, as the first time it streamed live, the mount point glitched, killing a couple songs with robo-dj music instead. Also, I wanted to get this inaugural episode of the Funkaliciously Jazztastic Hour on the 2022 archive page, as it is one of my favorite episodes I’ve done.

We listen to the cassette tape that Groove Collective used to sell at their shows. I got my copy at a Groove Collective concert at Slim’s 333 Club in San Francisco, California in the year 2000. The tape is comprised of performances from late 1996 and early 1997, in Budapest Hungary, Burlington Vermont, and The Blue Note Club in Tokyo, Japan.
