    Soul Donkey Music returns after a lengthy sabbatical with this series of throwback limited edition mix CDs distributed around Boston, Chicago, and New York in the early aughts.


    Soul Donkey Number One” was originally released in early February 2006 outside Soul Revival, one of Boston’s most impactful seminal underground experiences.

    We hope this blast from the past brings back memories of happier times and girds your spirit for the long winter ahead.
