Ok, have something realy rare and realy special for you. J Dilla's father, Beverly Dewitt Yancey, he was probably the single most influential person in Dilla's musical development, had numerous musical groups over the years from their gospel group Positive Force, to their after church group they liked to call the Attitude Adjustment which included a 10 year old Dilla playing snare drum, to their Jazz and Gospel group The Larks, which they just sang with not two years ago. But Mr. Yancey's first group was a Doo Wop group called The Ivies. Vlada recently featured Ivies on Laid Back radio and people loved it. So we decided to give you this present. We would like to say BIG THANKS to Dana Bartle a documentary filmmaker based in New York City (soon interview with her on DVAN), for providing us with Ivies hit Sunshine. Of course, big shout out and best wishes from Global Grooves Collective to Yancey family. We are giving you this track for free, but you should go on amazon and buy CD like we do.
