Peace, everyone! This is the newest member of the Soul And Jazz fam, DJ Applejac (aka Uncle Shecky), comin’ atcha with my NEW show Shecky’s Groovy Grab Bag. For those of you who are familiar with my ‘Slot Machine’ mixtape series, or have heard me play in various venues throughout the States, you know I go everywhere from Jazz to Rare Groove to Soul, Funk, Disco and everywhere in between…AND BEYOND (we might even play some slow jams, too). I’m excited to share these treats (old and new) with my new listeners in the UK and Worldwide. Enjoy…
