31) "The Mid-Morning Recording"                Finitribe-'Sheigra'
Since Finitribe are going to be our extra special guests next week on the 101st episode of "The 180", I've been listening to my two favorite albums by them around the house the past few weeks. I noticed that we hadn't played this album as an MMR before, so I figured it would be a good time to acquaint, (possibly reacquaint), you listeners to some of their music. I've been a fan of Finitribe since their album 'An Unexpected Groovy Treat' was released in the early 90's, and I played that album way way back in 2004 as an MMR. While I can honestly say that I didn't follow the band as much as my friend Jeff has over the years; what I can say that I've always enjoyed what I heard from Finitribe and their label Finiflex. The vocals are always clean, the grooves are stellar, and the melodies are always on point. Their music is always a groovy treat, and at this point, pretty much expected. I'm looking forward to their broadcast next week, and I'm looking forward to even more new music from them in 2018. "It's brand new, and it's coming through." Michael - MFL
