    Sharing a combo of real world finds, mailed gifts from my buddy and Numero Group stuff (MM is the repro) and some CDs redeemed from gift cards.

  • What was the last record you listened to?

    Brother to Brother "In The Bottle" and before that Youngbloods' "Rock Festival"

  • Favorite Funk Beat

    Fun fact: Several years ago, many Strutters frequently met up at the bar across the street from the former site of Lujon, possibly without knowing the drum break connection.

  • February Finds



    Some are from a couple of local shops but a majority were found at the Pasadena Swap Meet on Sunday. Sometimes it's one of those Jack McDuff kind of weeks. How many versions of "Surfboard" did he have; four? "Funky '69" comp is essentially an Alvin Cash album - and it's a Japanese press. I like early 70s Shirelles' "Sunday Dreamin'" but have never heard this cover. Family Cat is another one of those major label one-offers. Shango's second LP has a different sound, West Coast hard rock which fits comfortably in the Dunhill catalog, than their ecclectic, faux-Carribean sound on their debut with the minor hit "Day After Day". "Disco Sound Special" is a Japanese double LP with one record of originals and the other by cover bands including Black Buster who have a number of disco exploitation records. I think they are Filipino and not Japanese, though.
