It's a great record. 'Neon Tetra' always puts me in mind of the work that Grover Washington Jr. was doing with Locksmith on the near contemporaneous 'Reed Seed' LP.

Not all came with a bay leaf; I know some came with a piece of pasta, although I don't know whether it was penne or conchiglie, or what (I've got the bay leaf).

I love that there is an Irish pressing of this record.

The toughest New York sounds, available from your nearest WH Smith or Woolworths.

Fond memories of listening to this. Did the Street Sound Main Series jump the shark afterwards?
|
|
The Staple Singers weren't happy about covering this tune, I recall reading a long time ago. I remember it being described in not very flattering terms.

Early 70s George Duke is also a major reference point.

Blimey. This cassette was my soundtrack to 1984. Never thought that it would become so sui generis.

|
The cover of this album foretells that John Edwards will join The Spinners in a few years' time.

"Hang him on my wah ah ah wah ah ah wall."

"Do the Du" bassline is purloined from The Jones Girls' "You Gonna Make Me Love Somebody Else," I think. Jones Girls' song released earlier in '79.

This whole vinyl thing sucks . . . I'm going back to compact discs.

This seemed to be less focused than the previous four - and the G.Q. is not "rare" by any stretch of the imagination . . .

Come A Da Machine = a not too distant cousin of State of Independence.

The O'Bryan track is sublime. And the Bartz tune of course.
|

Roots reggae? Are you sure about that? Sorry to hear about the coat.
|
|
Would love to see this on vinyl. A future RSD release maybe?
|
|
This has just been reissued at a competitive price on CD in Japan.

I remember this when it came out. I thought it was lame as a motherfucker.

The top R&B hit of 1977. Number one for seven weeks.

Fantastic example of nominative determinism, it has to be said . . .
|
|
A great, very atmospheric, record. Better than Outubro, which seems to get more of the plaudits.
