Back in 2001, Madlib dropped a live mix over at KCRW’s Chocolate City featuring a vibrant mix of old and new. We’re talking Ahmad Jamal, Jay Dee, Weather Report and Herbie Hancock to name a few. Luckily, Stones Throw have provided a MP3 of the whole mix for your listening pleasure.
Peep the tracklist and stream the mix on Mixcloud.
