Well done @momanisthetakeover on this latest 'zine + mix project Nigeria Nicer:1980-1991. Featured today on Flea Market Funk.
Salvator Dragatto: Mind On Madrid
Thanks to the good people at @bigcrownrecords for asking me to pick August's BCR 10s. A small grip of records I am feeling at the moment in no particular order.
Happy #45Friday
If there has been one dance record that I regretted not buying back in the day for $7.99 from Pulse Records in Red Bank, NJ (shout out to Mark Bee, Glenn Garcia + Jah-red) it was this one. The roulette wheel on the cover that drew you in and when you needle dropped it, you did it again and again. Let's not forget the Chaka Khan sample. If you were looking for the 45 on Virgin, it's jumped to over two bills easily. Imagine my surprise to see a new 12" cut from the original masters with an etched roulette wheel, a nod to Roulé 305 on the B.
Slightly obsessed with this reggae cover of Underworld's "Born Slippy" from Sokabe Keiichi & Inokasira Rangers on @parktonerecords
When a @doctorbionicband I don't have finds its way up to The Manor, I have to support. @jitterbugsightsnsounds bringing the heat.
"You have to buy all the reecords, not just thr 45s, it's a package deal", said Pete, my vintage furniture guy. I wanted the blue label Eddie Bo "Hook and Sling" and the metal 45 cases, so I'm said "Sure "
