This week’s purchase is by 100% Pure Poison – a group of American military musicians stationed in Germany in the early 70’s. The one-album Soul/Funk band never made it big, but they created some wonderful jams nevertheless! Now the original LP has always eluded me, but luckily @DynamiteCuts released this delightful 7-inch in 2018 containing four of

It is with great pleasure that we share this weeks #45friday w/ everone out there! The California Flight Project is a group from Berkley California that has recorded music since the 70’s, but somehow never was able to release anything on vinyl. It wasn’t until 2010 that this beast of a song, “California Flight”, was released on

Today’s #45friday is a record that Nilez bought a few years back at @towervinyl@tower_shibuya@officialtowerrecords in Japan. Leon Ware’s gem “Why I Came To California” is one of the most amazing songs ever released on @elektrarecords and an all time personal favorite! This Japan-only 7” release was just too beautiful to pass up on (although the album was already in possession of course).

Another #45friday straight from Brazil this time! Found this @gilbertogil 45 last month at a flea market in the east of the Lowlands for a buck. This 1981 smooth Soul jam has @earthwindandfire written all over it and I can simply imagine Maurice White and the boys sippin’ on a coconut on one of Salvador de Bahia’s many beautiful beaches ☀️

Today we’d like to share @Moovmnt’s latest addition to his moderate collection of 45’s. Surinamese Funk legend Erwin Bouterse released this amazing single around the end of the 70’s. The b-side entitled “Groovy Weekend” is the jawn!
