The Miguel Atwood-Ferguson Ensemble – Walk On By feat. Zap Mama (Video & MP3)

On December 16, 2012, 1,500 Angelenos were treated to a very special and once in a lifetime concert, “That 70′s Soul”. A very special night dedicated to the great soul of the 70s. Not a tribute concert, but an opportunity to pay homage to some of the greatest songs ever written and performed. This was not a chance to over the music, but rather a chance to pay homage and expand on the songs.

A star studded night, graces by the likes of Sly Stone, George Clinton, Shuggie Otis, Leon Ware, James Gadson, Seu Jorge, just to name a few. The Ensemble itself was full on fire and the Maestro, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, blazed the undeniable trail of greatness!
