Big props to GoodRecordsNYC for a couple of these. The african bits are pure fire and the Dadwah is on some heavy dreadlock roots/dub with some psychy guitar playingSo happy to get og's of the Queen Constance Band, and The Four Mints.

    It was very noisy, but not unlistenable. It was filthy, though, and I figured a lot of the noise was just from dirt. I took it to Dan @ Jump Jump, aka Lazerwolf, and he kindly cleaned it for me on his machine. Turns out I was right. Now it plays VG to VG+ on the first side and VG- to VG on the second.

    I have this one, but my label is plain white and doesn't have
    the cool design of your copy. IMO the track is just "ok" ... fairly
    standard late-60's boogie, but I buy just about any 60's 45 that is
    about/heavily references drugs, so it's a keeper.
    I'll have to give it another spin & re-evaluate.

    Yeah I think the double a-sided version is more common, it's the only one I'd ever seen before.

    New & Reissues

    The Boogaloos were supposed to be Xmas presents but the local shop they were ordered through took until this week to get them (never again). I like that Roy Ayers, the Boscoe is outstanding, new Bamboos is hopefully awesome, I haven't listened to it yet.
    Other stuff

    Great Curtis LP, possibly the only Atlantic Pickett I had left to get, so good. Raw Blues is a great comp on Ace Of Clubs, the Doris Troy on Apple is better than I had been led to believe, late 60s Australian press of the Foxx's that I'd never seen before.

    MJT+3 is original maroon Vee Jay, great Jazz LP, West Coast Jazz Vol.III on Jazztone, Minnie, Rare Earth rocks, Kildevil Blues is 1990 lo-fi garage rock from Boston, it was sealed but I like it now that I've given it a quick listen.
    45s

    Don Gardner & DeeDee Ford do a cool version of "Glory Of Love" on KC, finally a clean local press of Respect, I slept on Bobby Lewis' Beltone 45s for waaay too long, he has some great ones.

    I always see this & have to laugh at the cover, what does it actually sound like?? I've never listened to it because it doesn't look like something I'd like.



  • Haha, it almost looks like she's holding the record cover in front of her. That is, if she had the hands of a white guy.

    Ridiculously slept on. Great fun. Sure to be hatted on by the likes of Faux an co.

    Yeah probably but who cares. I fully agree a cool record, with great cover art my 3 year old
    could do .
    I sure wish I could find people to pay millions for one of her water colors.

    50% of one track is and I think someone who posts here has done an edit.
