Mingering Mike - The Soul Superstar you never heard of…
by je
Between 1968 and 1977, Mingering Mike was one of the most prolific singer, songwriter, designer, producer, manager and promoter in the Washington DC musical scene. He was a one man corporation who produced more than 50 albums in a decade. Except that most of this only existed in Mike’s imaginary world. Very few people knew about his artistic output.
Some 25 years after he retired from show dreamness, his lost album collection has been discovered on a flea market by record collectors Dori Hadar and Frank Beylotte.
A few weeks ago, Cynthia Jo, a regular visitor of this laid back website, met Dori Hadar in an airport on her way to Austin, TX where Mingering Mike was supposed to host a whole day of shows. And she immediately thought it would be a good idea for us to host a Mingering Mike Soul mix in our radio show.
