This week on On Target, Mod Marty digs deep into the grooves, spinning a killer mix of 60s and 70s soul, R&B, and beat — with a couple of famous names hidden in the lineup. As the needle drops, he breaks down the evolution of production between the decades, from the raw, punchy energy of the 60s to the slicker sound of the early 70s. Every track crackles with history, style, and that unmistakable vinyl warmth. Tune in, listen close, and see if you can spot the legends hiding in the mix!
