Today's show - Big up Skip 'Little Axe' McDonald!
To say I owe this guy is a massive understatement.... An unsung hero so here's doing a little to address that.

From Wikipedia -
"Early career
Grounded in blues music learned from his father, a steel worker who played blues guitar at weekends,[4] McDonald spent his early days playing jazz, doo-wop, and gospel, and eventually relocated to New York City as a teenager with his band of friends, called The Entertainers.[2][3]
McDonald formed the group Wood Brass & Steel in 1973 with bass guitarist Doug Wimbish and drummer Harold Sargent. The group recorded two albums before their 1979 breakup.[3] He then became part of the house band for Sugarhill Records and appeared as a session player on many early rap recordings, including "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five.
