This week’s mix comes courtesy of a dig I did early last week. Most of the records with the exception of the first track were dug up together. The first track by Pigalle Connection is done by Gee from Soul Sugar on the Mocambo label. There is a hefty mix of original funk and soul, including some Touissaint production, sister soul from Detroit via Houston, a top notch track on Kenny Rodger’s brother’s record label, plus a couple of modern funk tracks that are dynamite and out of sight. The theme of the mix of course is The Man With No name and one of the best Spaghetti Westerns of all time. Because if you think about it, we are 45 rpm slingers, trying to make a name for ourselves throughout the land with our ammunition. While a lot of people have the rifles, we’d rather stick with our 45s. Clint couldn’t have said it better. Please enjoy this new mix recorded all live in one take in our Greenville Studios here in Jersey City, NJ. Pass it on if you dig.
