Captain Planet & Murphy's Law : The Funk Brothers Mix
(the link works now!)

Bad news: The summer ends. Adios to the concerts in the park, the beached out Sundays, all 31 of Baskin Robbins' flavors.

Good news: Your favorite blog celebrates a lengthy hiatus and 99 epic, soulful, funky, beat-heavy, smooth-groovin', mind-meltingly original posts with a impromptu sibling collabo mix. Murphy and the Captain working a broad pallet of delightful tunes into a thirty-two minute sampler. No crazy mixin' here--just good music live and direct from the City of Angels...

It's probably no substitute for the euphoric swell of ice cream on a summer day, but then, what is... We offer what we can--the Crate's own specialty menu: 11 flavors of delectable listening.
