The highlight of the TCJB is a version of Zappa's "Peaches In Regalia". Recorded a year after BB King's famous album at the same jail. Fix Planet, like "Life Is A Joke", is a German comp of bands from different countries. Except this is focused on experimental/new wave rather than punk. Mark Mothersbaugh and former Los Angeles radio deejay Jed The Fish rep the US. Milton's CTI record was recorded stateside; includes Herbie Hancock Deodato, Airto and Hubert Laws and is partially sung in English.
 
Yo Bill, how's that Sneaky Feelin'? Looks like it could be some cool AOR or maybe even yacht rock ish?!

That Cosmos tune is a banger, great find.

Sneaky Feelin' is Country-Rock. Here's a short bio about the band here where you can listen to one of the tracks from the 45:https://www.reverbnation.com/sneakyfeelin8

Not sure about the name either but it's a decent Boogie 45 (and a Holland picture sleeve).






 
that nite-liters is classic. cbc transcriptions all the way out in LA?
 
Many times I have thought, "how in the hell did this find its way here?", combing through the "International"/"World" section, which surprisingly has paid out in the past several months. I remember seeing some RCI/CBC records before, but they were of the modern classical variety. This one is related to the London Experimental Jazz Quartet (of the "Invisible Roots" record and "London" as in Ontario, Canada; not England). Nite-Liters: yes, "Tanga Boo Gonk" and "K-Jee", their "Tighten Up" rip, are classic.

A few highlights from the weekend

:breakface:

Iowa lounge, psych rock,soul raer


Is it any good?

I think it's pretty good. It's a lo-fi recording of a lounge band. They had a lot of energy. They do mostly cover songs but had a couple original tracks on the album also. The Joe Tex and Otis Redding covers are good, and their original tracks sound like psych rock with an organ player. It's different but in a good way. The cover of the Bee Gees song Words surprised me also. I don't really care for the Bee Gees but they improved the song. 4 out of 5 stars.

These were all from the dollar bin the other day. I slept on a King Tee joint off that Stimulated Recs album all these years.

A few more that I paid more than $1 for. I've been waiting to find that Dierdre Wilson Tabac in the wild since the late 90s!
