CULTURE CORNER
James Brown -- It's a Mother LP (1969) Oh man, this is one of THE killer JB albums, according to Slippy Town. Loose but super tight, hard, sweaty, almost all groove (with a couple notable exceptions). Side 1 is 100% super funk: "Mother Popcorn" (parts 1 & 2), "Mashed Potato Popcorn" (parts 1 & 2), "I'm Shook," and the instrumental "Popcorn With a Feeling," featuring JB on organ and probably St. Clair Pinckney on flute. Side 2 starts with a vampin', riffin' two-part call-and-response audience-participation live thang called "The Little Groove Maker Me"--JB was even a master at that often painful R&B cliche. Then two of the eclectic Mr. Brown's pop covers: "Any Day Now" given a real chopped-up funk spin, and "If I Ruled the World" sticking closer to pop melodrama. A reworking of JB's ground-breaking 1966 jam "Out of Sight" ("You're Still Out of Sight") sounds like Bobby Byrd on vocals--either that or JB's vocals have been slowed down a lot! The final "Top of the Stack" is a full-on jazz-funk instrumental that reminds me of Miles at his funkiest, Hank Mancini's fake jazz, and the MC5's "Skunk." Great album--try to find it on the original shitty King Records pressing from the 60s--then turn up the bass! Say it again: UNH!
Funkadelic -- Hardcore Jollies LP (1976) The P-Funk mob's hard-rock LP still scorches. With the young Michael Hampton's rock-ecstatic post-Hendrix guitar flying all over the rocked-up funk core, Funkadelic aimed to make dust of "ZZ Flop," "Grand Fraud Railroad," "Slack Sabbath," "Draftwerk," "Ofay City Rollers," and even godfather "James Clown"!
Andrew Cyrille Meets Peter Brötzmann in Berlin LP (1982) Yeah, kinda like Godzilla meets King Kong--or at least the sounds of such a meeting of behemoths--except it's really Cyrille's drums and Brötzmann's saxophones. Released by FMP.
Max Roach -- Deeds, Not Words LP (1958) Legendary bop drummer Max Roach leading a quintet dominated by youngsters Booker Little (20) on trumpet and Ray Draper (17) on tuba. Plus George Coleman (tenor sax) and Art Davis (bass). Powerful but sweet music, straight up and driven hard by Roach's incredible drumming.
The Mothers of Invention -- We Are the Mothers and This Is What We Sound Like LP (60s stuff) Real cool boot released in the 80s, complete with a bogus Bizarre Records label. But it was rumored to be Zappa bootlegging himself, partly because of the amazing sound quality. Who knows. Some of the material on side 2 later appeared on The Lost Episodes CD, including "Lost in a Whirlpool" with Don Van Vliet on vocals. But the jammin' live Mothers stuff is unique as far as my ears can tell. No dates or personnel, except some spoken studio mumble with various guys listing the instruments they own, but it sounds like the '68/'69 Mothers on side 1. Maybe one day Gail or Dweezil or somebody will let the archivists at Frank's live 60s material for proper, un-scissored release. The Mothers were hot improvisors, but a lot of their music was lost when Zappa re-assembled it for general release.

CULTURE CORNER
Kasenetz-Katz Super Circus LP (1968) Follow-up to the Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus LP mentioned last time (see July 30 update), this finds bubblegum producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeffrey Katz tightening up their sub-sub-Beatle bubble-commune project to make one of the very best 60s bubblegum LPs. This time, the participating bands in this alleged super session were the Ohio Express, the 1910 Fruitgum Co., the Music Explosion, Prof. Morrison's Lollipop (?), and for some extra punk punch, the Shadows of Knight during their post-Dunwich bubblegum phase. The Super Circus scored a big hit with "Quick Joey Small," a just swell bit o' nasal-snarl bubble-punk. That also applies to "I Got It Bad for You," as well as the versions of the Ohio Express's "Down at Lulu's" and especially the Shadows of Knight's "Shake." Of course, all this stuff was just faked-up R&B, as rock'n'roll had been for the most part, and they include a couple delicious soul-gummers: "I'm in Love With You" and "Easy to Love." The nasal-snort is retained, though! All that rockin', and the Super-K crew also manage to do some very listenable Beach Boys/Beatles-influenced pop, make good-natured self-references, and take a hilarious, surprisingly sharp poke at then California Governor Ronald Reagan ("A man who has so much hair/A man who is not all there"). There's even a free-form drums'n'shouts piece (obviously influenced by the Mothers in "freak-out" mode) that sounds like Amon Duul I trippin' on acid and beatin' on the hippie-cave walls. If you can still pick this up for a few bucks in some bargain bin somewhere, you're guaranteed a rockin' good time. I shit you not, kids!
James Brown & The James Brown Band -- Ain't It Funky LP (1970) James Brown album of the week is a set of funky instrumentals plus the the classic title track. Lots of JB organ solos, and "Cold Sweat" with fuzzed-out rock guitar!
Armageddon LP (1975) When ex-Yardbird Keith Relf decided to do his own heavy band in the mid-70s, he didn't do the obvious and go for a Zep clone. Instead, his band Armageddon was tight but hard and powerfully "technical" in a way that sounds not too far away from the proggier side of 80s speedmetal. Voivod fans would probably dig, although there are some very 70s-mellow moments too. After this LP, Mr. Relf accidentally electrocuted himself. What a way to go.
The Flamin' Groovies -- Teenage Head LP (1971) Oh fuck, if I'm listening to this, my head has really turned to cheeze! Sure sounds good, though. Roy Loney!
T. Rex LP (1971) Yeah, also '71. The first album that was officially T. Rex--the one with "Ride a White Swan" and many other great songs. If all these young'uns had any real feel for this shit (Groovies, etc. included), the "garage revivial" wouldn't be the very sad joke that it is.
The Troggs -- Pop Chronik 2LP (60s stuff) Yeah, like I said-----if only this shit could translate properly to NOW-----this music hasn't felt this good to me since I was a teenager. Okay, so I'm entering my third (or fourth?) childhood--yeah, so fuck you, buddy! Now turn up "Lost Girl"! "Gonna Make You"! "I Want You"! "I Can Only Give You Everything"!
AC/DC -- T.N.T. LP (1975) The Australian version's what I'm hearing. I don't remember the difference from the Amerikan Atco LP. AC/DC had maybe the worst lyrics of any rock band I've ever loved--but who cares!

CULTURE CORNER
Having a Good Time With Huey "Piano" Smith & His Clowns LP (1959) If life-in-general was even half as joyous as this batch of classic New Orleans R&B/R&R, none of us would ever come down! Huey Smith: rockin' genius.
James Brown & His Famous Flames -- Cold Sweat LP (1967) Hearing "Cold Sweat" on crackly AM radio in '67 was a spine-tingling experience that flashed real deep through my 10-year-old Alabama mindbody. So loose, so tight--it's not even a "song"--squawlin' sax, razor-sharp attack. I picked up the LP somewhere along the way--probably in some dusty store in Mobile. In spite of the full-funk breakthrough of "Cold Sweat," JB's eclectic show-biz side is still in full effect, so there are heavily orchestraed versions of R&B classics like "Fever," "Kansas City," and "Stagger Lee." That's on side one. On the flip, he goes for Nat "King" Cole territory, with versions of "Nature Boy," "Mona Lisa," and even "I Loves You Porgy." But JB is a stylist, and it's rare that he doesn't turn what seem like throw-aways into soul-deep expressions.
ABBA -- Waterloo LP (1974) Near perfect "adult" bubblegum and one of my all-time faves. Spector, heavy rock, Beach Boys, glitter, early disco, folk-rock, the Carpenters, and early-60s wimp-pop are mixed seamlessly into Bjorn & Benny's tasty-sexy Euro-bubblegum production, starring the boner-popping vocals of Anna & Frida. I like some of their later hits, but I think this debut LP is the only great ABBA album.
Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus LP (1968) Bubblegum producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeffrey Katz reacted to Sgt. Pepper and super-session jam records with this ludicrous POTpourri, supposedly performed by a coming-together of the following Super-K bands, fake studio bands, and one-off joke bands-in-name-only: the Ohio Express, the Music Explosion, the 1910 Fruitgum Co., Lt. Garcia's Magic Music Box, the Teri Nelson Group, the 1989 Musical Marching Zoo, J.C.W. Rat Finks, and of course, the St. Louis Invisbile Marching Band (hotcha!). They do a spacey version of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'," a heavy Vanilla Fudge-y "Hey Joe" with heavy fuzz guitar, and a psych-pop "We Can Work It Out." Jerry and Jeff stick bits of bad humor, sound effects, and fake crowd noise among the tracks. They also manage a couple hot moments of bubble-punk snot-wank and Monkee-Beatle-pop; and throw in what sound like real live versions of a few Kasenetz-Katz hits. What a nutty mess!
Black Sabbath -- Live at Last LP (1972) Legit live album released in 1980, but without the band's approval. Lo-fi mud and Iommi sonic attack.
ETC.
Betley Welcomes Careful Drivers lives! Phil Todd just told me he's reviving BWCD (label, not distro), which is heap big good news here in Slippy Town. First up is a 3-inch CDR from Ashtray Navigations called Heavy Flow Traffic Or Blind Faith.
Slippy Town Vs. BWCD! Not really, but upcoming is a Target Shoppers CDR from Slippy Town--material recorded three years ago for a never-released EP. Target Shoppers was Phil Todd's glam-noise-punk-improv trio with Marky Loo and Joincey before Phil moved from Stoke-On-Trent to Leeds. I'll also soon have the Slippy Town CDR reissue of Ashtray Navigations' Cobridge Red Church And Other Visual Splendours.

The Band -- Real Old Time Band: Live at the Hollywood Bowl 2LP (1970) These bozos could really cook before they got overly medicated; a legendary bootleg from the legendary Rubber Dubber.
Simply Saucer -- Cyborgs Revisited CD (1974-1978) New CD reish from the kings of Canadian pre-punk. The Cyborgs LP + "She's a Dog" 7" + unreleased stuff.
Michael Rother -- Sterntaler LP (1977) Ex-Neu! guitarist Rother and Can drummer Jaki Leibezeit at Conny Plank's studio playing music that'd be perfect for reading early issues of Silver Surfer comics: majestic laser-slice sci-fi-surf guitar soarin' above universal-funk grooves.
Alan Price -- O Lucky Man! LP (1973) The ex-Animal's great song soundtrack for Lindsay Anderson's great film.
Billy Boy Arnold -- Crying and Pleading LP (1955-1957) Hard Chicago blues/R&B; with the original versions of the Yardbirds' "I Wish You Would" and "I Ain't Got You."
Nova Boys -- Death in a Dress 12-inch EP (1984) Roots-punk from the final days of Slippy Town interest in p-rock. Four boys from Tempe, Arizona filter Gun Club, Cramps, and Blasters through hardcore to very rockin' effect.
James Brown -- Super Bad LP (1970) The godfather and founder of modern American music works it out through a bizarre mix of super funk, R&B melodrama ("A Man Has to Go Back to the Crossroads"), and MOR ("By the Time I Get to Phoenix"!). Dig Robert McCollough's extended free sax on "Super Bad"--sounds like Albert Ayler! With William "Bootsy" Collins and Phelps "Catfish" Collins before they hopped on board George Clinton's P-Funk muthaship.
Marc Bolan & T. Rex -- Electric Warrior Sessions CD (1971) Alternate takes, studio run-throughs, demos, raw vocal dubs, outtakes, and other stuff from the sessions for T. Rex's breaktrhough album. This works kinda like an alternate "lo-fi" punk version of the released Warrior LP. I love this stuff!

New Crawlspace CD soon: Law Where Prohibited By Void. And it's about time! This will be our first manufactured release (as opposed to CDRs and cassettes) since ¿Et II Bluto? in 1997. It's kinda full circle for me personally coz it'll be on Gulcher Records, where I started as a teenage Gizmo back in '76.
Speaking of the Gizmos . . . After being unavailable for awhile, I'll soon have copies of the re-pressed Gizmos Studio '76-'77 CD. It's Gulcher's third pressing!

Screamin' Mee-Mees singles CD upcoming from Gulcher! Yeah! I just started working on the package design for Bob Richert's Gulcher imprint, and it's gonna be a doozy!
