@GraemeE I think @Aetas is way more qualified than I am. But I’ll do my best

@TENDREL - Dr John is simply incredible in the amount of styles and beats he manages to pack in - while still sounding like Dr John.
artists like him are a big inspiration

[GraemeE]

Had a chance to get first look at a small collection before it went up at an estate sale this afternoon

…. help me discover all the hidden gems

There are a lot off the road next to Can and Neu!
But often hidden because of

• insanity
• one hit wonder
• crap recording technology
  …

Shure we’ll find some gems in the next months.

@prpx I listened to this album for the first time this week. First run through was kinda tough - seemed a bit weird and hard to groove to. I can see how it was groundbreaking though. I need to run it back a few times and let it soak in. I've been on the look out for In the Right Place.

@68degreesorless - yeah, not as groovy as his later works but still, all the crazy rhythms and weird little noises, catchy melodies.
also check out his piano record if you like crazy tempo piano playing (plays mac rebennack, himself, is the name of the record)

Perfect summer chillin’ tunes

@prpx love that Wamono record!

@GraemeE Sweet Revenge, oy — my favorite Prine.

[GraemeE]

@prpx this looks like a rad a comp.

I've never seen it - what's the story?

[prpx]

@GraemeE - It's compilation that DJ Yoshizawa Dynamite did together with Chintam, to represent the alphabet of Wamono grooves. I am certainly not an expert, but i know DJ Yoshizawa so i was happy to found this record at a thrift store, and its a great score. Really cool grooves. Its essentially 70s jazz funk dance music, with a japanese twist. highly recommended easy listening.

@prpx currently in the middle of listening on my ear buds at work.

Digging what im hearing so far.

This stuff is entirely new to me

Birth Control 1972 - Hoodoo Man

[GraemeE]

@Aetas these are the deep cuts I love learning about

I listened to Operation on spotify and it had a few moments that reminded of early Guess Who

… even more when you open the Gatefold!

Nektar
made one year after Birth Control’s Hoodoo Man, this beautiful record named ‚Remember The Future‘ in 1973…

Nektar are at the edge of ‚German Rock‘. Founded in 1969 in Hamburg, all four members were British.

@Aetas - great mention, love this album!
