Episode of the Kevin Keith & The Dirty Dozen Show aired on January 15th 1994 on 105.9 WNWK. The group Trends of Culture was in the studio that night. There is an interesting unreleased demo from Magic Juan played in this show, entitled "What's the Word". I think this demo comes from Magic Juan's unreleased album "Whether You Like It Or Not" which was supposed to come out around 1993/1994.

The last 2 tracks are uploaded by Hakan Dougpark. An unreleased track from Son Slawta Melquan named "Floww On".
