Woke Up And Seen The Sun Sky High

So I've been wanting to make this mix for a long time and finally got it together. The Mizell Brothers were responsible for my love of jazz even though I didn't know it. Funky, soulful, complex music in the 70's that I never get tired of listening to. Most folks are familiar with the Mizell's sound by virtue of the heavy sampling that's been done from their catalogue, but I really feel that you can't go wrong listening to the original jams. The mix (I believe) has something from every artist that they worked with, and hopefully will open folks up to something new.
