HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONGO!
We here at HOMEBASE are on our global tip, we geniunely enjoy a bit of every genre of music, as well as borrowing certain aspects from cultures. Mongo has played a very big part in our interest of Cuban culture + music, fusing r&b, soul, and Afro-Cuban rhythms, giving rise to the Boogalu era. If you don't know much about Mongo know that he composed this Coltrane classic: "Afro Blue"

Mongo on the Congas performing "Afro Blue" at UMASS..CRAZY!

"Sofrito"

Mongo Santamaria (April 7, 1922-February 1, 2003)

A HOMEBASE CLASSIC PART 2
"Flippin' the script, page one." Wonderland copped this 12" single on a trip to Philly so now we're thinking about playing a whole set of Brand Nubian and Puba B-side remixes at the next jam, Stimulated Dummies we see you! The guys at Homebase HQ have decided there's nothing really cuter than a fly chick wearing a hoodie and hoop earrings. Mary pulling off the flannel and a vest look too!
