Betty Davis is a landmark figure in funk music, the stylistic forerunner of all self-proclaimed freaky b*tches out there today. She was a model who had her first song published before she was twenty ( Uptown by the Chambers Brothers) and went on to marry, and divorce, Miles Davis before she was 25. She turned…
Reggae fans need no intro to legendary mic master Manley Buchanan, aka Big Youth. Dude is a mesmerizing MC deejay, floating drunken master style over any beat he faces. Screaming Target is one of those classic foundation deejay records (‘longside U-Roy’s Dread In A Babylon), released on Trojan in 1973 with Youth chatting over the biggest…
Another excellent recording of Bill Evans Trio from the early 60 s reissued. At Shelly s Manne-Hole, Hollywood, California captures Bill Evans in rare form with his short-term third trio that featured bassist Chuck Israels and L.A. drummer Larry Bunker. This would be the only recording of the trio in this configuration, and Evans final record for his first label,…
Bill Evan s second recording with bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian. Originally released in 1961 by Riverside Records, Explorations would be one of Evans favorite recordings from the period. The album would also prove to be a favorite among listeners as it won the Billboard Jazz Critics award for best piano LP of 1961. The trio…
Back to back edit heat from Blackcash & Theo. For the 21st installment in their long-running Galaxy Edits series, BC&T take on a couple of digger favorites, easily recognizable as sample sources to hip-hop classics. Taking the A-side is an edit of Ahmad Jamal s cover of Foster Sylers Misdemeanor, as used by Primo on Gangstarr s Soliloquy of…
It s a funky situation. Blackcash & Theo blessing ya ll once again with another pair of deep cuts on 45. This time around Captain Dax s 1975 cosmo-funk oddity Dr. Beezar goes under the editor s knife, showcasing those spaced-out synths and raw as hell drums. On the flip, Harry Mosco s Nigerian disco funk groover I Feel Funky gets the BC&T treatment….
Edit heat on 45 from Blackcash & Theo! The Galaxy Sound boys are back, and they ve brought more soulful goodness to the (turn)table. Beat heads take note of the heavy drums on the A-Side edit of Frankie Seay & The Soul Riders. The drummer is goin HARD on that kit and BC&T extend the funk outta that…
portable funk two-tracker from reliable edit crew. Galaxy Sound has become a cop-on-sight label due to Blackcash & Theo’s consistent and respectful edits of the rarest funk & soul breaks. This time around, the duo throw up two golden era hip-hop staples, Pleasure’s “Bouncy Lady” and The Whatnauts’ “Why Can’t People Be Colors Too”. Both…
Bottoms up sunshine, love potion number nine. Blackcash & Theo come through with their latest 7-inch sure-shot for all rare groovers, Casanova Browns and Madam Butterflies. The A-side features a characteristically restrained edit of Dynasty’s “Adventures In The Land Of Music,” which of course served as the main loop in Camp Lo’s “Luchini” (shout out…
DJ delights on 45. For volume thirteen of Galaxy Sound Co. s long running edit series, Blackcash & Theo give us two sides of silky, smooth disco funk to set the vibe right. That infectious synth hook (Boz Scaggs anyone?) on Soul Liberation s Touch Me Again is guaranteed to get the crowd open, then those soulful vocals come…
10 micro-groove 78 RPM vinyl pressing edition of 1,500 housed in recreation of original Victor label sleeve though Robert Johnson may now be considered the biggest blues artist from the past, at the time Blind Willie McTell was both more popular and predated even Johnson’s earliest performances, much less Johnson’s short list of recordings. McTell played 12 string…
The underlying thread is the idea of Hope. Dev Hynes’ fourth album as Blood Orange came two whole years after the technicolor pop collage of Freetown Sound. Negro Swan is very much a Blood Orange album for our current dystopia, a sharing of the multitude of traumas of the black experience. Gentle funk instrumentation belies the lyrical brutality of album opener “Orlando”,…
Record Store Day Exclusive. The legacy of Blowfly deserves an RSD release as wild and unorthodox as the man himself. The notoriously dirty funkster passed away last year (2016), and his 40+ year career is being commemorated with one of the most unique pieces of vinyl we’ve ever seen. One side features two tracks with…
Daptone revisits the Bob & Gene 45 with all new reggae versions. The original track was released in 1968 (Daptone reissued it in 2007), and is a bonafide soul classic – especially among the West Coast low-rider sweet-soul scene. Here Brooklyn producer Victor Ticklah Axelrod lifts the soulful vocals and pairs them with super feel-good vibrations from reggae stalwarts, The Inversions….
multi-colored vinyl pressing sourced from the original master tapes edition of 1,500 Original ABC 1973 TV soundtrack, part of the Schoolhouse Rock! Series. Jazz Bop Vocalist Bob Dorough (1923-2018) composed “Multiplication Rock” as a way for children to remember Multiplication tables. With the use of upbeat pop and rock melodies it turned into a huge success…
Part of me scoffs at the squeaky-clean production of these late-period Wailers albums, but the other part of me is glad that a songwriter as brilliant, deserving and hard-working as Bob Marley was given such a huge platform to spread his message. Yeah, I’ve got some of his records, but they mostly just sit on the shelf…
