I MOOG DI, HEINZ





No kitsch, no Apache, no Popcorn! Weird describes it best.
Heinz Funk never became famous for his soundtracks for
cheesy german Edgar Wallace thrillers or detective TV series.
Due to Wikipedia the 1915 born FUNK still lives.....
I bought that LP in the early 90ies just because of Heinz'
family name. Back home I was pretty disappointed.
This has nothing to do with Funk except from the fact
that it's pure Funk playing. Enough!
The great Luke Vibert called my attention to this goody
by putting "Baccarole" on his Nuggets comp.
It's hard to pick a favourite on this one, but after some
time thinking it had to be the closing track "Wedding Of The Stars".
Unfortunately the B-Side shows some audible scratches.
I guess some friends of mine (sincere Heinz Funk fans)
danced on the record after dancing to it at a party!
cheers,
Basso

I was so sick of the fact that all I had of this album was someone's horrendous SIXTY FOUR BIT MP3s (yes, I kid you not) that I actually paid up with DivShare to get this rip you posted.

It is majestic! Less than one minute into the first track, I knew I had done the right thing by ponying up.

basso said...

I hope you enjoy it and the crackles on SIde B don't belittle your pleasure.
cheers,
Basso

Could somebody please re-up the lp?
Thanks a lot!!

basso said...

The only someone over here, who rups files seems to be Basso. So if you don't mind ask me right away. I'll see if I find the zip somewhere and load it somewhere. You'll find a link right here in the comments,
Cheers,
Basso

basso, I'm new to your blog and I must say amazing work! The only thing is that link is busted. Any chance of finding a re-up?
