FMF x London Part 2

18 11 2009

Hello FMF Family. Here’s some treats from London once again. This time it’s a good one. In fact, I wasn’t even aware it was going to happen, and I’m glad it worked out the way it did. While we were digging, Andy mentioned he had a gig at Colourful Radio. It’s been a while since I had my radio show, and honestly I do miss it. So, that being said, we headed over to Vauxhall in South London to the Studio. We went a bit early, because there was a killer Reggae show on before, Papa Face was filling in for the normal DJ who was out. He also had Soul Warrior (Big Youth’s cousin!) in the studio as well. They were playing the best Reggae, so it was an honor just to sit in on the show, and take in some of these great Reggae tunes. By the time Andy started his show, I was flying high, and in the second hour of Boogie, Northern Soul, Jump Blues and Reggae, we both played a bunch of the records we had dug up that day. Below is the MP3 version of the show.

You can hear Andy Smith every Wednesday Night at 12 Midnight (that’s 7PM for you EST people here in the US) on Colourful Radio or DAB in London , and look for the live streaming link or link to Andy’s page. This is highly recommended by FMF, and not because the guy is my friend. There are some great shows with music you don’t hear, and Wednesday nights you get a double shot! On Friday I will revisit my night at Lost and Found with Andy and the legendary Keb Darge. See you then. Keep Diggin’!

Download or Listen to Andy Smith’s Radio Show from 11 12 09 on Colourful Radio in London with Special Guest Flea Market Funk

FMF x London Part 1

16 11 2009


Wall of Fame, Tottenham London

Well people, I made it back from the UK in one piece. I stayed with the Big Man over in East London, and he showed me what’s happening as far as London sights go. The first few days were spent getting my bearings, eating Full English breakfasts, drinking tea, visiting football grounds, and playing tourist. Thank you very much Big Man for that side of London. While in London, however, I knew I needed to get in some digging. I had a put a call into DJ Andy Smith before I left to try and secure a few days of digging. Andy met me in Central London and we hit up a few used record shops in that part of town. I was really surprised to see Jazz pieces and even late 70’s Lonnie Liston Smith Lps going for upwards of €35. That’s over $50 US. So to say the least, records are a bit expensive in London. We, however, went to some places that weren’t so expensive. I was able to to get some cool Funk pieces for €5 and €6, as well as a bunch for 50p each. I tried to stick to 7 inches though, because I had limited space coming home. I managed to get some great records, and am looking forward to spinning them out as well as putting them on future Flea Market Funk Mixes. I was lucky enough to get to the Soul Jazz shop, where I bought some great stuff, and got to meet Earl from the Trojan Sound System. The guy is definitely a heavy hitter in the Reggae scene. Check out the song on his page over the Classic riddim, wicked and wild man. From there we hit up a few more used spots and then went back to Andy’s house where his wife cooked us a great dinner. We played some classic Phoenix on a stand up video machine, played 45’s on his jukebox, and talked about records and music all night. I’m very pleased that I got to hook up with Andy. He is a great friend, a talented DJ and digger, and just an all around good guy. We share the same outlook on music and DJing, and it’s unbelievable how we’ve almost led parallel lives on opposite sides of the Atlantic, of course he has found more success. We both really enjoy what we do musically, and I guess that’s a great way to stay happy working. He invited me to go on his radio show on Colourful Radio , where I got to sit in, take in the great vinyl he was spinning, and play some finds I got digging that day. That is going to be a separate post though, and I’ll have audio you can download. It was a good time, great music, and I’m excited for you guys to check it out. We went out the following evening, after a day of digging ( wicked, wicked Reggae shop, that’s where the top photo was taken) to Peter Parker’s, where The Gene Drayton Unit was playing. They’re a kick ass, five piece Jazz band. Really great stuff. Their cover of “Bringing Down the Birds” was ironic, as I had just purchased a reedit (or re-lick as Andy calls it) of the tune. Highly recommended! I also spent a night with Andy and the legendary Keb Darge at their night at Madame Jo Jo’s in London, my last night in the city. It was a killer time, and when I get all the photos sorted out, I will write that up as well. I’m glad to be back, I have some new vinyl and choons to share, so let’s get it started this week shall we? Keep Diggin’!

Here’s a few photos to hold you over:

Matt Robinson – Roosevelt Franklin Counts

28 10 2009


Download or Listen to Matt Robinson – Roosevelt Franklin Counts from the Sesame Street Lp My Name Is Roosevelt Franklin

I got the idea to do this post after I put up the Village Choir’s “The Switch”. Sesame Street has a long history with music and musical guests. The multicultural children’s learning show on public access has had an affiliation with music since it’s inception. With everyone ranging from Tony Bennett to Cab Calloway to Stevie Wonder to Johnny Cash to Ray Charles to Paul Simon to Herbie Hancock and beyond, Jim Henson’s creation has become a world wide sensation for kids and adults alike. Take that and add the Muppet Show into the mix (not to mention feature films, etc.), and music and entertainment guests would have been honored to be on the daily and weekly shows. I mean, who wasn’t funkier than Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem? At any rate, here’s Matt Robinson with “Roosevelt Franklin Counts” from the My Name is Roosevelt Franklin Lp on Children’s Records of America from 1974.

Now I know what you’re saying? Why the hell is he doing this goofy novelty children’s record? Why not! Just because it’s a child’s record, it can be funky! For those of you not in the know, Roosevelt Franklin was a character on Sesame Street from 1970 to 1975. Modeled after an African American child, Roosevelt Franklin was always talking about Black History, life lessons, family, and geography. He was voiced by Matt Robinson who played Gordon. He also did the voices of Roosevelt Franklin’s younger brother Baby Ray, and mush mouthed Mobity Mosely. Robinson stated “”Somewhere around four or five,” “a black kid is going to learn he’s black. He’s going to learn that’s positive or negative. What I want to project is a positive image.” And project that image he did. Robinson wrote movies and television after he left Sesame Street (most notably Sanford and Son), and is the father of actor Holly Robinson-Peete (of 21 Jump Street fame). Sesame Street was indeed ground breaking television, teaching children (and some adults) through their educational, multi-racial skits about life, and the lessons that go with it. To me, after digging deeper and finding out about the Village Soul Choir and their affiliation with Sesame Street, I thought I’d throw something out there a bit different. Children’s records are no stranger to breaks, I mean from the Brady Bunch to Zoom to The Banana Splits to Bugs Bunny to British Stuff like Ragtime, while campy, are some funky ass shit. I mean Prince Paul even sampled Harrell and Sharron Lucky when he produced Three Feet High and Rising for De La Soul. They may have been imitating Sesame Street in a low budget way, but it was so good that Stones Throw reissued it. The funkiest Sesame Street song in my opinion was done by The Pointer Sisters, ( Pinball Number Count), but I believe it was just on the show, not an Lp. I’m just saying, there’s Funk and Soul in lots of things, even kid’s albums.

“Roosevelt Franklin Counts” is a goofy, if not cool little side helping kids to know the importance of counting. The decent drum beat, horn part, and bass line are pretty good for a kid’s Lp in 1974. Franklin likes to “scat, rhyme, and sing the Blues” according to his biography, and that he does. Matt Robinson and Joe Raposo composed the lyrics and Robinson handled vocals (with help from Rosalind Cash). This is just another example of a record, that’s not necessarily a record you might pick up. I picked it up because I remember RF from when I was a kid. I was pleasantly surprised at the sampling material on it. I used to actually play this out when I DJ’d in NYC. A certain bar owner (who no longer owns the bar), tried to steal this record, claiming he just wanted to make a T-Shirt. Likely story. I got the thing back quickly. That’s your midweek treat, so enjoy it while you can. Keep Diggin’!

The Village Choir – The Switch

26 10 2009

Download or listen to The Village Choir – The Switch from the Paramount 45

Here we are at the beginning of the week. The weather sucked until yesterday. However, this weekend, football wise was fantastic. The Red Bulls won their final game ever played at the Swamp, and Liverpool crushed Man. U 2-nil at home. I couldn’t have asked for better football. We did it without Stevie G. and Sir Alex had to go home and drink lots of wine and whiskey to get over it. But I digress, we’re here for records, and here’s something I picked up a few years ago, have definitely played live, and included on a FMF mix. Here is The Village Choir with “The Switch” from 1973 on Paramount Records.

Not a tremendous amount of info around about this band. They were a New York City band I believe, and at least one member, guitar player Edward Arrington, Jr., ex-Motown backing player, recorded with the band Village Soul Choir on their “Talk To Me Sometime” 45 in 1972. I do not know how the Village Soul Choir morphed in Village Soul Choir, but Arrington was involved with that as well. This record was produced by Sir Charles Matthews and arranged by Clip Hightower. Matthews described the band as ” a choir that sang R & B and Pop. Village denoted the sound in it’s uniqueness, Soul denoted that it was church oriented, and Choir denoted it was heavy.” I was able to find out that it was recorded in George Klabin’s 46th Street studio called Sound Ideas, with Geoff Daking engineering the sessions. The Village Soul Choir also recorded one helluva children’s record in “Soul on Sesame Street”. The players also included arranger Clip Hightower, Don Otis Parker, Pat McQueen, Dolores Cooper, and Jimmy Marshall. The released a 45 that was included on that record of “The Cat Walk” (the bass line on this thing is KILLER).

“The Switch” starts out with a stanky little bass line, and a decent little beat. Honestly, before I did any research for this record, I just chalked it up to a funky, sexy lil’ number. I didn’t take into the consideration the Church influence the band members had, and as I’m listening it to it again, I hear the Gospel influence. It almost has a traditional/ folk quality to the lyrics, like some spirituals that would be sung at home on a Sunday. Then it switches (no pun intended). The string arrangement gets pretty tough, and the chorus of “rickity rack, sock boom bah”, while kind of corny, still fits in with this Funky Soul piece. I’m definitely feeling this on a late Sunday/ early Monday morning. Hopefully you will too. Keep Diggin’!


Check Out some of this Children’s Funk Gold! (Not sure if it’s the Village Soul Choir but it’s FUNKY as hell!

Berry Park/ Budos Band Recap

23 10 2009

All I have to say is WOW! What a great night in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. We got up to Brooklyn early and hit SEA for some really great Thai food. With full bellies we proceeded to Berry Park. It was just filling up and my man Dave from Truth and Soul was dropping some really great 45’s to get the mood set. Up next came DJ Young (Old) Chris from Big City Records in Manhattan. The guy is notorious for having heat, and honestly, the shit he dropped was insane. Little by little the place filled up, and when I dropped my first 45, it was on. I couldn’t have asked for a better response, seriously. From the first record to the last, I had a lot of people coming up and asking me about sides, and generally digging my set. It felt pretty good. I haven’t spun in Williamsburg in a minute, and I got some love, which is really appreciated. After my set, Damu the Fudgemunk brought his beats and samples as the place was already jam packed. By the time the Budos got on, the place was banging. I stayed for a bit of their set, but my 16+ hour day was catching up to me, (not to mention the delicious Lambic/ Heffeviezen gigantic beers I was drinking). I’m upset I didn’t get to catch Voodoo Funk’s set (because the guy has HEAT and you know it), but there will be another time.

Huge shout out to Dave from Truth and Soul, Dan from the Budos (and all the guys as well), my NJ and PA peeps that came out, Eilon from Dust and Grooves, James for finally getting together after way too long, Tom from Belgium (yeah Belgium!) that came to the show, and everyone else who showed some love Flea Market Funk’s way. It is much appreciated people. No love to the dude who smashed my beer causing it to go over my headphones and a pile of 45’s. Looking forward to getting back to Billyburg real soon. Cheers. Keep Diggin’!

Tomorrow Night: Brooklyn We Go Hard! Budos Band x DJ Prestige

21 10 2009

Well kids, you knew it was gonna happen again. I’ll be DJing in Brooklyn (at a rooftop bar with Bier Garden no less!), and it’s with the Budos again. Last year’s gig at S.O.B.’s in Manhattan was a trip, and this gig is going to be off the hook as the hipsters say. Not only will the Budos be bringing the heat out of Shaolin, the rest of the artists aren’t too shabby either. Voo Doo Funk (the best obscure African Funk around, PERIOD), DJ Old Chris, and Damu the Fudgemunk will also be providing the entertainment as well. Big ups to Dave over at Truth and Soul Records for getting me linked up to this colossal event (and I finally had a night off to do it). I’m going to be doing an all 45 set from 10 til 11. So if you’re in the area, come on out, have a beer, listen to some great music, and have a blast. I’ll be trying to get up early to meet some friends, get some decent food, and bring back some Stumptown coffee to the Dirty Jerz. Hope to see some of you Brooklyn/ NYC heads out. Keep Diggin’!

Jorge Ben – Cuidado Com O Bulldog

19 10 2009

Download or Listen to Jorge Ben – Cuidado Com O Bulldog from the 1975 Phillips Lp Solta O Pavao

This week is gonna be kind of sparse, unfortunately. I’m DJing a bunch this week, including tonight for the Nixon after party for a surf contest in Seaside, NJ, plus preparing for the Budos Band gig in Brooklyn on Thursday the 22nd. I’ll be doing an all 45 set alongside DJ Old Chris, Voodoo Funk, and Damu the Fudgemunk. Unfortunately, this weekend was really not my weekend. Pair that with a couple of Nor’Easters here in New Jersey and the weekend was pretty bad. But, and this is a big but, I’m pressing on. I bought this record from my man over at Soul Spectrum, pretty much all things Brazilian. It’s a mighty damn fine blog, and if you haven’t checked it out yet, I suggest you do. Since the Winter really is here, I thought I’d revisit a bit of Summer to lift my spirits a little. This guy always gets me amped, and if you have no idea who this man is, I suggest you get familiar. Here’s Jorge Ben with “Cuidado Com O Bulldog” on Phillips records.

Born Jorge Duilio Lima Menezes in 1940 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1940, Jorge Ben has had a great musical career doing it all his way. He too had his start in the church and was influenced as well as encourgaed by his mother to be a musician. Originally a pandiero player (Brazilian tambourine), Jorge became quite good at bossa nova guitar. Musically, he was influenced by players such as Gilberto Gil and Joao Gilberto, but took his own path. His song “Mas Que Nada” started his career off right in 1963. From there he never looked back. Combining, traditional Brazilian music, bossa nova, rock, and even African rhythms, Jorge Ben is a tremendous musician in his own right. While “Mas Que Nada” has been covered by everyone, including Sergio Mendes and Brazil ‘66 and the Tamba Trio, the cut was one of the most popular songs of all time sung in Porteguese, even here in the United States. His self titled record in 1969, backed by Trio Mocot (who were successful in their own right after playing with Ben) gave way to more success with the sides “País Tropical and “Charles, Anjo 45″. The 70’s were Jorge Ben’s most experimental time. He would release “A Tábua de Esmeralda”, “Solta o Pavão” ( where this side comes from) and “África Brasil” ( which DJ Prime-Mundo just got a clean copy of at the Spot!). As usual, atthe time the records were met with some tepid, lukewarm feelings and reviews. Fast forward to today and people want them. I was lucky to get this record, and I paid a few bucks for it, but you never see this stuff around really (At least in my experience). Jorge Ben would change his name to Jorge Benjor in 1989. He still continues to do his thing today, and he does it well.

“Bulldog” starts off rather fast, maybe a little frantic, but then transitions right into the Jorge Ben we all know and love. Slow and steady Ben moves through this side leaving me feeling refreshed, wishing I had a caipirinha prepared by my man DJ APB. Ben takes us out fast and furious again. I love this tune. It may not be funky in the traditional Flea Market Funk funky, but it’s one helluva side. I ask all of my readers to check out Jorge Ben if you haven’t. He is one incredibly talented musician, that I feel is overlooked. My man Prime-Mundo got me into him back in the day, and I thank him for it. Even though I love the Fall/ Winter, I needed to go back to a warmer time, and this song did the trick. Keep Diggin’!

T. Swift and the Electric Bag – Are You Experienced?

14 10 2009

Download or Listen to T. Swift and the Electric Bag – Are You Experienced? from the Custom Lp

Greeting FMF peeps, I’m hoping you liked the raw and uncut mix I dropped the other day. I wanted to do it that way. With so much access to correcting everything you can put out digitally, I figured what the hell? Let me simulate a live set vibe and see how it goes. Is it perfect? Hell no! I’m hoping that you all got what I was trying to do, just do something a little different by throwing out a curve ball. So in keeping up with the Rock tradition (sort of), I wanted to throw this side out that I scooped up at one of the Asbury Lanes record swaps. It looked interesting enough, and just for 10 bucks, I figured what the hell. Here’s T. Swift and the Electric Bag with “Are You Experienced?” on Custom Records from 1968.

There really isn’t too much out there on this gem of a record. Who is T.Swift? For that matter, who is the Electric Bag? This record has been called a “psychsploitation toss off” by certain people. It has been speculated that the whole band was contrived in some major record board room to redo popular cuts of the day. Some say this band of California studio cats ripped off Hendrix, the Box Tops, and Classic IV by doing interpretations and covers of their songs. Still others say that this band was related to Tom Smith and the Electric Grandmothers, a band who put out a side on on Sound Tex in the Early 60’s. This has also been shook off by experts as pure coincidence. This record was released on Custom and later different cuts were reissued on a few other labels, as of late Gear Fab. Another label pinned on this type of recording, an specifically this record was “exploito”. Basically the record label hires a band to play said popular songs of the time, (more specifically songs in a certain genre that cater say to the Psychedelic kids in this case). A record is made, and then put out unlicensed and uncredited to to and by the original artist. Pretty shitty huh? I can think of a few labels, more specifically TWO that come right to mind, that have been doing that for years. I have no idea how they can sleep at night. At any rate, this record really has no credits at all, except that it’s on Custom and the address: 5810 So. Normandie Ave., Los Angeles, California 90044.

Starting off with a nice open drum break, this slowed down version of Hendrix kinda grows on you. It sounds really, like it was recorded in some dank basement with sub par recording equipment. I can just picture these cats, lights down low, going into the Session flying high on Hendrix and hash, saying: “We can do this.” I swear I hear a bit of a Fiddler on the Roof riff when the first guitar solo kicks in (and I’m not high I swear this time). The boys were definitely going out to impress the Psychedelic kids of 1968. I’m sure the suits at Custom thought that they were gonna grab all these impressionable acid eating kids and sell a ton of records. I doubt that was the case, and today, the reason people lay out some cash for this thing is because it’s got no info on it. I thought that this cover was pretty cool, but I get excited at an open drum break myself. It was more of a novelty, but I figured what the hell, I’ll have an open mind. So here’s another, Something Completely different for Wednesday, and I hope you enjoy it. Keep Diggin’!
