that funky feeling

Here's some nice german boogie from the late 80s released on the private? Plurabelle label. I discovered this record some years ago and nobody really cared about this until some weeks ago some french Boogie Dealers declared this to some kind of holy grail. Too bad that I ran out of copies ;)

here's a youtube preview

Musik Szene Saar

A rhyme on prächtiges Haar - Musik Szene Saar
Ambi & Arno sing "For You" (see tracklist below) and they're damn right. Now here's one for you. Hailing from from the small german federal state called Saarland, named after the river Saar, this compilation offers folky vibes, krautrock, teutonic elektronik, obscure funk and heavy rock!
Well worth a few spins .... get all the details here and snatch your link in the comments as soon as it appears there. Cheers!

Girl you move me

Some of you might remember that this was my favourite song for
longer than half a year. That's a long time for a guy who shows strong variety-seeking-behaviour. The LP version starts off rather spacy -
this Live version is nailed down to the floor of the "Blow Up".
Unfortunately it lasts just for a few minutes. I'd love to hear the whole show.......
Anyway, this is one of my "unfortunate love" tracks, another one is "Pretty girl" by the Beginning of the End. What about yours?
Cheers,
Basso

What does it mean?

Hey folks, check out the Wild Magnolias website here!
You'll find a great version of Handa Wanda but no explanation.
PLEASE TELL ME: WHAT DOES HANDA WANDA MEAN?
And don't forget to have a look at the pictures!!!!!

What else than yellow?

I cannot imagine any other colour than yellow..... but I defintely can imagine what it feels to wear a silly yellow suit and even sillier shoes. If my manager or a photographer made me wear stuff like that I'd grunt and groan.
But these guys play incredible music instead and therefor I praise 'em.
Great stuff all the way through. Not your ordinary funky chicken LP but serious and sometimes psychedelic with electric guitars and all that. My favourite part of "All that" is Dexter Wansel's delicious & spacey keyboard work. For the Heads there's a drum break that appears in The D.O.C.'s "Whirlwind Pyramid" and the beautiful "All along the seashore"was used for MF Grimm's "Yes you are" (It took me some time to find that out). My favourite track is the laid back "Happiness" - yes it is.
I LOVE PHILLY!

cheers,
Basso
