A Spell On Him
Here’s another unreleased one from the outtakes of my last record (the red one). It’s noisy and I hope you like it.

Wood Grain
JUST got back from a successful Italian vacation, so sorry for the lack of updates. The last person to leave a comment on the blog requested more from the likes of “Big Moe” and “Big Tuck.” Daniel,...

I Care About You
Here we are at the next installment of our gospel series. One from the 80s side of Otis G Johnson, who also put out several highly-coveted, ghostly, reverb heavy gospel records in the 70s. This one is...

Nice string-synth driven crooner soul by Freddie Watson 7” on the Eloy label. Picked this up at the one and only Kstarke in Chicago. Enjoy and embrace the light.

Dirrrty....
Another one by special request. The followup 45 to ‘Do You Love Me Girl?’ by none other than the infamous Johnny B. One of the world’s most unique slices of beautiful, off-key modern funk. Please enjoy.

Maximillian Stroll
Found this weirdo boogie record by Jimmi at the wondrous Kstarke Records in Chicago. Always a goldmine for rare (and beat-up) records. This copy of mine has a crack in it, but if you press it...

Get On Down
Not sure if people realized, but there was a time when Gary Davis left his mark on female-fronted Miami bass records. He even gets a shout-out at the two minute mark.
