ACOT - Bonus 1 - Music Credit

Apologies for the crappy laptop mic audio for this addendum. As we hadn't secured original music yet for the podcast our friends Black Bottom Collective were super generous to let us dip into their catalog for the intros and outro for our first episode. (Thanks Ted!!!) Like their name, Black Bottom Collective's sound and ethos reflects the deep rich history of Detroit's music, its struggle, its resilience, and its soul. Please check them out at the links below. If you like their music, let them know on their Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/blackbottomcollective] page. And start up your own soul-stirrin' meetings! Buy their album People Mover, also provided in the links. WILD PODCAST COINCIDENCE! So BBC's Khary [https://twitter.com/KharyTurner] and Tunesia Turner were interviewed as part of Crimetown Season 2 [https://www.crimetownshow.com/] which focused on the city of Detroit. A great series in itself made even greater with their presence and insights. Also, keep an eye out for DJ Invisible [https://djinvisiblecom.wordpress.com/]! International man of mystery, one never knows where he may strike (up a party) next!!
