no certain info in the link in the list what I can see


Format:
2 x 12" Single
Label:
UMC/Virgin
More Info:
This exclusive double 12" edition grew out of mixes that were undertaken to celebrate the release of the Super Deluxe version Roxy Music' s debut album in spring 2018. Unused at the time, the mixes, overseen from Bryan Ferry' s London HQ, celebrate the essential otherworldliness of Roxy Music' s space age vision, stardate 1972. This strictly limited double 12" features out-takes of Karl Stoecker' s legendary photo-session from the debut and was mastered by Frank Arkwright at Abbey Road in Autumn 2018.


No mention of it it's a Steven Wilson joint or not...
If I could ever find an original copy I think I might prefer that. Maybe I can find a way to try before I buy.

Ooh, I just noticed they're reissuing that Grodeck Whipperjenny record...good thing I didn't spend $400 on an OG copy!

Sho is Funky Down Here and The Grodeck Whipperjenny are a pair of albums that are the result of an unlikely but highly productive musical relationship between James Brown, a superstar at the creative and commercial peaks of his long career, and David Matthews, a then young arranger-musician whose limited professional experience had little or nothing to do with the funk and soul of his collaborator.

A psychedelic classic, created by his James Brown’s bandleader David Matthews, the first album issued on Brown’s famed People imprint. As progressive as it is funky, this album was issued in tandem with another Matthews project issued under Brown’s name – Sho Is Funky Down Here. One of the deepest albums in the Brown catalog, its story is finally told.

Lacquered directly from the original master tapes at Capitol Studios. This is the first official reissue of both of this rare titles.* Contains an extensive booklet with full annotation, liner notes by Brown historian Alan Leeds and never-before-published photos.


*this is a lie - I have a late 90s Polydor reissue of Sho is Funky Down Here
It's the James Brown psych rock record

Rough Guide To Blind, Black & Blue

A remarkable phenomenon in the history of the blues was the vast contribution made by blind musicians, whose legacy left a lasting impact on American music to this day. From ‘The Father Of The Texas Blues’ Blind Lemon Jefferson to slide guitar evangelist Blind Willie Johnson, this Rough Guide highlights the blind blues pioneers who, against all the odds and in the face of incredible adversity, were responsible for a musical revolution.

SIDE A: 1. Blind Blake: He's In The Jailhouse Now 2. Teddy Darby: Lawdy Lawdy Worried Blues 3. Blind Boy Fuller: Truckin' My Blues Away No. 2 (Take 2) 4. Blind Lemon Jefferson: See That My Grave Is Kept Clean 5. Sonny Terry: Harmonica Stomp 6. Blind Joe Reynolds: Third Street Woman Blues 7. Blind Joe Taggart: Religion Is Something Within You SIDE B: 1. Blind Willie McTell: Stomp Down Rider 2. Reverend Gary Davis: The Angels Message To Me 3. Willie Walker: South Carolina Rag (Take 2) 4. Blind Willie Johnson: Nobody's Fault But Mine 5. Blind Roosevelt Graves: Crazy About My Baby 6. Blind 'Gussie Nesbit: Pure Religion


Is this Rough Guide comp offensive or celebratory? There's some amazing music on here, for sure...

I was able to get both of these without standing in line. Listening to Sho Is Funky Down Here now. I also got the first Bernard Purdie reissue. That was it for me.

My small but perfectly formed haul. I got everything I wanted and a Morrissey single. Fantastic. Such a nice day , mixing with some charming record buyers, and marveling at how well behaved they were in the frenzy of the pick. And I spent a fortune... :(
