New Timmion LP and 45

Couple of Timmion Bangers dropped into the deli this morning...

Sensualites Unlimited – Sweet Blow (Timmion 7" Single)

A dusty saxy summer smoker that sounds like it was sandblasted on to tape, the distortion on bass and drums is gorgeous.  I must finish my decking so i can listen to this with a cigar and sangria whilst enjoying that rare beast, a Scottish sunset.



Myron & E (Stones Throw LP)

Soon as the first track opened so delicately into such a great warm vocal i was hooked . Post Hip-Hop 60s influenced soul the right way. Drums and guitar work worthy of any of the classic 60s studios while Myron & E dreamily cruise along charming everyone with  their relaxed honest vocal. I was sold on the first listen, the CD is going in the car and the vinyl will be getting front room status. L.P of the summer, the kind of music i want my children growing up listening to.

New Quality Reissue - The Fabulous Fugitives

This reissue sounds better than an O.G, well worth picking up. - Fryer

Fabulous Fugitives featuring Michael Sharkey is a rare doubler A sider containing two awesome deep funk cuts from this Memphis, Tennessee group. Originally it was released in 1973 on the J’Ace label owned by local gospel record label owner Style Wooten. The group only put out one 45 and the orginal masters have long since been destroyed as far as we know. The A side, “What the World Needs” is a politically charged funk bomb. The flip side, “You Made Me Cry” is a more straight forward funk track with plenty of fat drum fills.

New Timmion - GUEST VILLAINS - "TORNADO B/w FORBIDDEN FEELINGS"



I really rate this one, the b-side is also amazing. You have got to love the trippy imagery. Press release below....



Limited edition of 500 copies of 7" vinyl

RELEASE DATE FEB. 15th.

Guest Villains is a wild instrumental combo consisting of sax, organ, guitar, bass, drums and percussions. Their sound is pure unadulterated sleaze! This single, their very first 7” release is an essential piece of vinyl filth.

“Tornado“ is a frantic surf instrumental, complete with dirty lustful saxophone, twangy surf guitars and overly echoed percussion breaks. This ferocious shaker is stereotypical “tittyshaker”. It sounds like it could have been lifted straight out of a raunchy Russ Meyer flick, you can almost hear the swooshing pasties as they spin to this one!

"Forbidden Feelings" contains a filthy saxophone melody that just oozes with the promise of sin, this one will get the windows steamed up for sure. The orgastic ending of the song makes you want to have more, more, more…

Shiptown Label Shame: Passing Repress off as Originals

Barbara Stant - Real Man and
Barbara Stant - My Mind Holds On To Yestersday

There are two pressing which are new being sold as originals at high prices without informing customers they are represses.  Please check your copies deadwax against the United matrix number below if you bought it in the last year if they match you were ripped off. Very sad, a real black mark on the legacy of a great label. You can also spot the repress as it has a very orange label with very dark text, the originals (pictured) look faded. Also they sound like shit, mastered from a 128kbs mp3 on a biscuit tin.

Barbara Stant - 'Real Man' (shiptown) United Records pressing number 63709 - January 2010
Barbara Stant - 'My mind holds on to yesterday' (shoptown) United Records pressing number 63895- March 2010

The pressing dates have been confirmed by united who agree it was misleading, you may repeat them if you like: http://www.urpressing.com/
