This week, we explore the history of Rhythm and Blues, and its evolution to contemporary R&B that took the 1990s and early 21st century by storm. A genre as intrinsically, historically linked with the development of Rock & Roll as Country music, this mixtape is a fundamental and crucial genre to cover on any show titled Lumberjack Rock.

This week, we explore the excellence, influence, and impact of Black Culture, as well as the artistic brilliance and improvisation that innovated the sounds of the 1960s and 1970s. Soul and Funk move the mind, body and spirit. This is quintessential music and perhaps the most culturally significant Lumberjack Mixtape to date.

This week, we tackle the anti-establishment, rebellious, DIY production, gritty, raw sounds of Punk Rock. Crank this one up in your garage. Wear a blatantly offensive T-shirt or leather jacket. Stick it to the man. Speak truth to power. Rock on!

This week, we explore the smoother sounds of soft rock. Maybe it doesn't have the same edge, but it's not lacking in heart, power ballads, introspective sounds, and easy listening.
