For the last two years, my good friend Linh Troung, Josh Dunn, and myself have worked on an exhibit on Strata Records, Inc for the Scion IQ Digital Museum! Here you will see everything you every wanted to know or didn't know about this legendary Detroit label! Furthermore, I have secured an exclusive license agreement with the owner of the label to reissue the entire Strata Records catalog which consists of more than 90-100 masters. As many of you know, there were six or seven official releases but I have access to several dozens unreleased masters. I encourage everyone to to visit our exhibit! EnjoY!!

    So does this mean unreleased Strata LP's coming out soon?
    Is the unreleased stuff featuring any known artists (Malawi, Lyman Woodard, Dennis Coffey?)

    When can I get timmy digalot about it?

    timmy digalot question: were strata and strata east connected in any way?

    when you check the site you will see that it explains everything but they were connected still two different labels....there are def unreleased lps coming. from some of the people you mentioned and others really no one has ever heard of. i will be posting up a newsletter from my label (180 Proof) later this week breaking down the first release and what else is to come.

    Hey Erwin,

    Sorry man I was busy trying to book that tour which went well for me! Plus, I was trying to pac because I had to move right after I got back from Europe. I am coming back to Europe May 9-21. Would love to come to Rotterdam..let me know!

    The thing is that the Japanese CD didn't have the OG artwork which is ill. The release on vinyl have it.

    Wow, can't wait. Bought 2 cd's from my man Leonard King with 2 unreleased Lyman Woodard gigs from the '70's. Incredible stuff. Such a nice man, he sent me the Lyman Woodard tribute cd as a gift as well !
