Seebach Band - Bubble Sex

Danish schlager-king Tommy Seebach, the master mind behind many horrid songs somehow managed to produce this cosmic nugget. This is the 7" version, haven't heard the 12" but I assume its longer and maybe the part where the groove kicks in is a bit longer also. If not this really begs for a re-edit. Great tune none the less.

Sticky Stuff - S/T

80s hard rock? Sure looks like it judging by the cover. And thats not a white rat shes chewing on - its the "sticky stuff" that the group likes so much they named themself after it. But looks are deceiving as many times before. This is a mini LP with rahter slick sounding 80s Hall & Oates-esque pop/disco/soul/boogie, released in sweden 1984. It seems that the record didnt sell many copys and its now in demand by the italian and french weirdos that like anything that could be labeled as "boogie". Thats why I ripped all the tracks for a change, I haven't seen any digital version of this elsewhere.

A great year and a request

2009 has been a great year for digging, I have found more stuff over the last 12 months than the rest of the 21st century. It even makes up for the records I passed on in the late 90s to never see again. And 2009 keeps on giving, the pic above is from yesterdays haul. Nothing spectacular, apart from Chain Reaction maybee, but 10 or so great Lps for peanuts - some spares but still quality. 2010 has a lot to live up to. The one 12" to the left in the pile from yesterday was a stormer: "Reaction - In a moment" on Strawberry. Soulful disco or even straight modern soul, if you liked Henry Woods Troupe a few posts down this is for you.

And here's the other good track "Gospel Train" of the Better Late Than Ever LP that i posted a track from previously. By request from Damian.

Ex-Tras, King Sporty & Connie Case - Get On Down

A Proper LP from a proper recordstore - no bargain bins here. This is how I like my disco, gritty, funky, slamming bassline and great hook. This french LP from 83 contains 2 amazing tunes - "Get On Down" and "Haven't Been Funked Enough", both avaliable on separate 12" from the Konduku label but here you get them both on one LP. A real money saver. Or just download Get On Down here by clicking the divshare logo and use your money on candy instead.

Henry Woods Troupe - The Stranger

Ace organic, airy disco with lots of soul. This is the "disco" mix but i can't tell the difference from the flip. This deserves to be on a loud 12" but I think the OG is only availible on this 7"?

2 x 12" Legacy - Word Up Flora Orrery - Classified Love

I brought a big pile of cheapo mid eighties 12" home yesterday, 90% of them will go back to the wild but there were some nuggets in there. A few will go on ebay but these keepers are well worth a download. Hi bitrate for the lurkers!

Legacy - Word Up

B-boy cowbells, snappy guitar, piano á la Leroy Burgess, a fat break - that description should have you downloading by now! Oh, forgot to mention the weird in a nice way vocal style and the kick-ass bassline.

Flora Orrery - Classified Love

The description "balearic" is used a little to frequent - these days media working-hipster DJs will label anything balearic. This however is a balearic tune if i ever heard one. Perfect for that 1987 Ibiza sunrise.

Space Orchestra - Disco Time

Hidden on this swedish low budget studio band LP by Hans Edler is some proper space disco. The band is named Space Orc, I assume its a short for orchestra and not the kind of orcs you find in Lord of the rings. That would be a pretty sweet name for a band though. Another 4 minutes or so to each track wouldn't hurt so the tune lenght matches the epicness of the sound - bring out your re-editing tools. Sorry about the poor sound quality but the pressing aint the greatest and my copy seem to have been to a few space parties.

Sexy?

This is a record from what would be translated as "the swedish gymnastics union". Its got different sets of tracks for different users, house wifes, jazz dancers etc. This was issued in 1978 to inprove the peoples healt by dancing. Most of the tracks on here are utter rubbish but the track "Sexy" stands out with its funky philly-disco style. The dance performed to this must have been a treat for the eye.
