About this listen

In this episode, I speak with drummer Jay Mumford of The Du-Rites about the history of funk drumming styles from the '60s through the '80s. We also discuss Jay's childhood funk fandom and how he eventually made the decision to become a professional funk drummer himself later in life.

This episode is a funk music history lesson jam-packed with deep knowledge and music references.
