 \n.............................................................................................\nA 
 Pacific Radio Tribute to Rickey Vincent, scholar, educator, KPFA 94.1FM 
 radio host, and author. Since earning a PhD in Ethnic Studies at 
 U.C.Berkeley, Vincent has lectured on Black music history, the cultural 
 politics of Hip Hop and issues of African-American Culture and 
 Globalization. His first book is "Funk: The Music, the People and the 
 Rhythm of The One."  His new book is Party Music: The Inside Story of the 
 Black Panthers' Band and How Black Power Transformed Soul Music."\n\n"This 
 book not only brings to life the overlooked contributions of the Black 
 Panthers' funk band, the Lumpen, but it also captures the hopes, triumphs, 
 challenges, victories and setbacks of a generation that was determined to 
 find its voice during one of our country's most turbulent times.  Party 
 Music is ...also about the black power movement and freedom struggles they 
 were a part of... a serious game-changer." -Davey D\n\n"The Lumpen took the 
 music that black folks in the United States were listening to at the time 
 and changed the lyrics to make revolutionary agitprop grooves. The Lumpen's 
 music, like the Panthers themselves, pointed to the idea that there is no 
 need to call on the us we could be, the us that we are just needs the right 
 map and the right tools. Rickey Vincent just put a very important part of 
 the map in your hand." - Boots Riley, of The Coup\n
