Fat Man Ridim Section – Bald Head Justice
Top Ranking Sounds 1978
Early eighties, with a couple of friends, we really got stuck in reggae
music. An album that was permanently on the side of the turntable
was this dub version of Jacob Miller’s ‘Wanted’. Bald Head Justice
with the Fat Man Ridim Section of Ian Lewis and his buddies with
Sly and Robbie. I was totally hooked on this one. It is not complex
but somehow has a special touch, nice guitars horns and keys.
A dub lover’s treat you don’t wanna miss out on. I must
have played it thousands of times ..
In de vroege jaren tachtig ben ik met een aantal vrienden echt
even blijven steken in de reggae. Een plaat die niet van de draai-
tafel week was deze dub versie van Jacob Miller’s lp ‘Wanted’.
Bald Head Justice met de Fat Man Ridim Section van Ian Lewis
en zijn companen en met Sly en Robbie. Ik was compleet ver-
slingerd aan dit album. Hij is niet ingewikkeld maar heeft op
de een of andere manier iets bijzonders. Een dub
liefhebber’s droom plaat die je niet wil missen ..
” ..Jah will never give the power to
a bald head man, to judge a rasta man .. ”

Jicco / Benga 1977
Oh yes, hier hebben we weer zo’n benga pareltje uit het jaar 1977.
Wederom op het Nigeriaanse Jicco label vinden we deze met de
Winam Jazz Band uit Kenya. We hadden reeds eerder twee van
hun albums, hier en hier, uit 1976 en 1977. Die van vandaag klinkt
gelukkig stukken beter. Hoera voor benga ..
Oh yes, here we’ve got another little benga pearl from the year 1977.
Once more on the Nigerian Jicco label we find this one with the Winam
Jazz Band from Kenya. We had us two of their records on earlier occa-
sions, here and here, from 1976 and 1977. Today’s album fortunately
sound s alot better. Hip hip hooray for benga music ..

Halfnelson – Halfnelson
Bearsville / Warner Brothers 1971
In de categorie oude popplaten vandaag het debuutalbum
van de Sparks. In den beginne noemden ze zich nog Halfnelson,
de naam die al snel om commerciele redenen werd veranderd
in Sparks. Alleen dit eerste album is onder deze naam. Gepro-
duceerd door Todd Rundgren en een elpee die de broertjes
Russell en Ron Mael weinig tot geen succes bracht. Verder
met Earle en Jim Mankey en Harley Feinstein. Zelf heb ik
er altijd met plezier naar geluisterd ..
In our popmusic category today the debut album of the Sparks.
Back in 1971 they called themselves Halfnelson, a name they
changed in Sparks very quickly for commercial reasons. Only
the first album was released under this name. Produced by
Todd Rundgren and an elpee that didn’t bring fortune and
fame to the brothers Russell and Ron Mael. Also with Earle
and Jim Mankey and Harley Feinstein. Personally
I have always enjoyed it ..

Orchestre Varieté Africaine from East Africa
Dick’s Records 1978
On Dick’s Records from Onitsha Nigeria we find this strange
album. It contains a funny rhyme, “A pretty kitten, All black
and white. Call him to play, I think he might”. As far as I can
see, it has got nothing to do with the music. We hear benga
from Kenya by Orchestre Varieté Africaine? Except for one
offering on Afrowanted, it is ungoogleable so to speak. The
label nor sleeve give us any information on the topic. No
song titles, nothing at all. If anyone can shine a light
on this record, please do .. enjoy listening ..
Op Dick’s Records uit Onitsha Nigeria vinden we deze wel
zeer vreemde plaat. Hij heeft een rijmpje op de hoes dat
voor zover ik kan vaststellen niets met de muziek van doen
heeft. “A pretty kitten, All black and white. Call him to play,
I think he might”. We horen benga uit Kenya door Orchestre
Varieté Africaine? Behalve een aanbieding op Afrowanted
is de plaat ungoogleable zogezegd. Het label noch de hoes
geven enige informatie over de band en het album, geen
titels, helemaal niets. Als er iemand is die erover ver-
tellen kan, heel graag, veel luisterplezier ..

The Mothers of Invention – Absolutely Free
Verve 1967
Tja Gerrit, je zei het al, ik ben benieuwd hoeveel reacties je hierop
krijgt. Alleen jij kon je er nog mee identificeren kennelijk. Dit is echter
geen reden om mijn Zappa revival te cancelen. Het is december en dat
is de maand van nostalgische popplaten hier op de Global Groove. Hier
is dus deel twee in de Frank Zappa en de Mothers of Invention story.
Absolutely Free, een heerlijke uitspatting uit het jaar 1967, luister ..
Yes folks, as blogpal Gerrit already predicted, the first Mothers of Invention
did not provoke any reactions except for his own. Meanwhile we continue
our little Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention revival for it is december,
the month for nostalgic popmusic records here at the Global Groove. So here’s
part two, Absolutely Free from 1967. Enjoy listening .. or not ..

The Mothers of Invention – Freak Out !
Verve 1966
Click on it !
..and now for something completely different.. These words
were famous of course through Monty Pythons Flying Circus.
Since small I was very much amused by everything out of
the ordinary, absurd, freaky if you will .. The music
of Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention came to me
when I was about 15 years old and it shook me. My first
encounter was with ‘Live at Fillmore East’ a live registration
that left me with red ears at that young age. My love for the
works of Frank Zappa was born. Later I managed to collect
most of his wonderful records. If you are young like I was
then, let me shock you a bit and let you hear the works of
this great musician. This is his very first from 1966.
Fasten your seatbelts and fly with the Mothers ..
..and now for something completely different.. Dit gezegde
werd beroemd door de jongens van Monty Pythons Flying
Circus. Vanaf jonge leeftijd werd ik altijd al blij van alles wat
baanbrekend anders was, lekker absurd en freaky als je wil..
De muziek van Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention
bereikte me op vijftien jarige leeftijd, het was de live plaat
‘Live at Fillmore East’ die me met rode oortjes achterliet.
Mijn liefde voor het werk van Frank Zappa was geboren.
Later wist ik de meeste van zijn geweldige elpees te be-
machtigen. Als jij nu zo jong bent als ik toen, laat me je
dan shockeren met de werken van deze grote musicus.
Dit is zijn allereerste uit 1966. Fasten your
seatbelts and fly with the Mothers ..

Jah Woosh – Dreadlocks Affair
Trojan Recordings Ltd. 1976
Jah Woosh, real name Neville Beckford, is 23 years old, a
virgo, and one of the most exciting ‘toasters’ to emerge
from Jamaica in 1976. In may, during his visit to England
he had three records in the reggae top ten at the same
time. We feel this must be some kind of a record!
On this album, his first major solo album to be released in
England, he is backed by the Mighty Clouds and on several
of the titles his vocals are assisted by other Jamaican
artists.
On Albert Classau he is joined by Shelton Wallis and on
Falling in Love, Veronica Adams accompanies him. He
is also joined by Levi Williams on Don’t Do That and
Hubert Lee on In Deh.
All titles are written and produced by himself and
recorded at King Tubby’s and Channel One studio.
A fine debut album from Jah Woosh which should
really establish him as one of the front-line
skankers from Jamaica. (liner notes)
