Today's Quick Mention:  I'm assuming most of you are off tomorrow, so you might as well call it a late one tonight.  Have fun, be safe, and be sure to drop by in the morning to read Dan and Zoe's columns while you recover from your sure to be awesome hangover.

2012 is turning out to be a good year for soul/funk music.  At just the halfway point we've already gotten rather nice releases from the Sugarman 3 and Lee Fields And The Expressions, and now there's one coming from Antibalas.  The full length, which is their first in five years, is self titled and due out August 7 via the great Daptone Records.  Enjoy.

:Antibalas - Dirty Money:  Just in case you wanted to listen to something that makes you feel like maybe you're not cool enough to exist, here's this track!  Just kidding.  Sort of.  Anyhow, you have a variety of issues you if you don't at least want to attempt moving some part of your body when this is on.  I can't wait to see how the band plays in front of thousands of people at ACL in October.
