This is not a "Hot or Not" post...well, not intentionally at least.I've noticed this LP selling for crazy money on eBay recently and wondered if anyone can vouch for the of its contents: So ballers...Hot or Not?SG

My current fave cut off there is a boogie-funk rap-ish thing called 'whoop tee doo' which reminds me strangely of 'the magnificent seven' ( off 'sandinista' by the clash) - I guess both cuts are ultimately derivative of 'good times'( chic).
disclaimer: I sold one recently on ebay.

Thanks! That cover (and the price tag) got me curious.

I have an LP by Charles Pryor that uses that same stock cover.
I'd like to hear this.
& the Kream Band? yeah I have that and was thinking why I thought I knew the cover.
for real I haven't listened to it in a while, but I didn't think it was as facemelting as the sleeve and title suggested... need to pull it out again I suppose
I've got a beat-up 45 (!!!) off it too
there's no year on the cover or label - sounds like it was from the early 80s?
I've got a Charlie Jones LP recorded in the same studio (Galaxie III in NC), are there any more (soul) productions from it?
Thats Harry Deal's studio (of 'And the Galaxies' fame - beach music)
He had that 'Fonky Fonky' single
There's tons of stuff from all genres recorded there in the 70s-80s, I'll let jmperlu elaborate (if he shows up here)
Whatever the case, the cover is
Don't sweat this record at all
There are plenty of dollarbincommons of the same genre that are far better
Half the record is terrible, the other half is just okay
Buy It Now on ebay for $409.77.[/b]
Chilling Out
Is this guy's description accurate? What it do on some mp3's?
... a RARE and highly rated LP!!! This LP sounds like Sa Ra, early Prince & Roger, The Floaters, Jay Dee, Platinum Pied Pipers, etc..all mixed together) titles : Looks Like Your Funk, Scared At Night. A Man, Stay, People, Me Myself And I, Leroy, Woop Tee Doo (all songs by Gary Hairston), produced by Hairston Enterprises and Harry Deal ...
