The Solar Plexus - Always reminded me of Mid-70s Zappa that one, like a Ruth Underwood/Dukey vibe, which is a good thing. Can't believe they let that cover go with Horizon-Wonk™.




Checking out that Solar Plexus now, it's got some Hermeto Paschoal/Egberto Gismonti vibes to it as well.
:feelinit:

Here's my scoop from the past week: Fumaça Preta kills.




I don't know that one, sounds... intense? I'll check it.




It is! reminds me of The Stooges "Funhouse" but much heavier. I bought the LP used for $14. Aside from Alex Figuera, they are from the British funk band The Grits.

Man looks like a reject Action Man
 
And the forced perspective would have worked better if they superimposed him in deeper water. I see, "God, your hidden low-tide troughs screwed me again!"
 
The translation on the cover is Beto Mendez and his protest poetry. Had a listen and Beto is LOUD and INTENSE and had MAD STAMINA. There's a guitar and organ accompanying but it doesn't get much space at all.

He would have gone down a treat at Download Festival this weekend. Kind of a proto-Rage Against The Machine. We are about 15 miles from Donnington and people that bit closer can hear it from the comfort of their own gardens.

That. And more often than not CDs. This week’s cheap to reasonably priced arrivals
 
a strong haul! I was thinking about copping that si cheeba. I love cut-n-paste tracks. haven't pulled the trigger though

this weekend I "found" green mango 'run down' and then "found" I didn't have 70 pounds to spend on it, damnit
 
was back in Seattle for a wedding and ended up staying next to Daybreak Records, which I highly recommend. well organized cheap bins full of goodies. i've been "Looking for Nikki" for a minute. great Beatles medley on Crook and McGhee. wish i had more time for records on this trip...
