yeah, it's weird how many instrumentals are on there... and they all basically sound alike. I wasn't sold on my first listen, but the high points are pretty rad.

That one is good. I looked at it at first and was like, uh, dunno where we gonna go with this one. I like it for curveballery like Clannad.
Here is some other stuff I found on my trip that Strutters might be down with and I could use some information on.
Anyone heard that "Saxophone Special"? It's free jazz but what made me buy it (since I'm not brain enough for free jazz) was the synthesizer. There is mad electronic freak-outs on this which make it really cool.
Same goes with that "Stairway Down To The Stars". Canadian thing which there isn't much information on the net about. Wouldn't mind a price check on this so I could set-sale it on the cheap.
Funkadelic -- free your mind (promo) (NEVER seen an OG of this one in the real world) Donnie Elbert -- have I sinned (great early effort from this falsetto soul singer) Joe Cuba -- We must be doing something right! Horoya Band National -- (Deeeep syliphone album...I love this label) The White Eagels International -- (great raw, almost garage-y highlife) F. Kenya -- ngakula ngakula (more great highlife) Ambassadeurs International -- Mandjou (seldom seen original african pressing of this masterpiece)
I finally found one of these this weekend for dirt cheap and am just getting to play it now... whole thing is basically excellent. Except i get to the crazy jungle drums cut "funky" and it's got a big ol' fawkd up jump in it back to searching for another one of this dopeness.
Such a good record. Who??d have thought Rick James is on it.

That's the reason why I bought it in the first place, back in 1992 or 1993, but someone stole it from me not too long afterwards. Seeing it in this thread made me realize I still don't have a copy, but that's about to change.
Pretty average weekend actually. Was kinda happy to get a clean copy of that Aretha, the Latin Hustle was an anniversary present from my girlfriend, every couple of years I find myself fiending for Ventures LPs for a few weeks, I don't know why, but now is one of those times, that's a good one though. The local 45 supply that has been super good to me the last while appears to be drying up finally. This last lot from Wisconsin had some nice stuff at first, but it is totally just the leftovers now. Lucky they are cheap.

Yeah, it kind of surprised me.
It got me at the moment where the
vocals float in out of nowhere and go
"IN A COCAINE DREAM"
Seemed to drop off hard on the second
side, though, except for the instros.

I like it for the deep basslines, the nice vocal arrangements and happy (sounding) South African good time vibes.
I'm pretty sure I was at the same flea market earlier...across from Dinosaur Land? Right outside of Front Royal.
That Jennifer Lara is a real killer!
Nice score!

sorry for cross-posting... but i'm wondering what's the deal with that Ella- is it the same album as the one called "Sunshine of your Love"?
bottom left is Carnegie Mellon University Jazz Ensemble 1974 LP nice condition up for trade...
Yes, that's the deal.
