Hip Hop Love

This little gem comes courtesy of Joey Welz. Wikipedia has one scarce mention of the man:

More than 100 musicians performed with Bill Haley & His Comets between 1952 and Haley's death in 1981, many becoming fan favorites along the way. Several short-lived Comets reunions were attempted in the 1980s, including one contingent (organized by Baltimore-based piano player Joey Welz who was briefly a Comet in the mid-1960s) that appeared on The Tomorrow Show, and another run by an Elvis Presley impersonator named Joey Rand (this group later lost a legal action over the right to use the Comets name).

Now this legend has tackled a new genre with the album Hip Hop Love

Just to point you in the direction of some tracks you NEED to hear:

Feelin' Kinda Freaky
Hop Hop Love
And of course, the classic Rap Your Love Around Me

(you can open these sample files with any audio player)

Just remember, when these hit radio...you heard it here first!
