Two tracks originally self-released in 1981: abrasive post-punk-come-proto-industrial, with vocals, guitar, programmed drums and synths. The first in a series of CP revives promised by Sacred Summits for 2014.

The masterful Greek folk violinist. ‘So raw and unmediated that anyone who has ever yearned for anything will feel these songs like a club to the back of the knees…immediate, destructive, and stunning.’ Crumb artwork.

Too experimental for their label International Artists, back in 1967.

Actually this is Tyrone Evans from The Paragons, not Tyrone Davis the Chicago Soul singer, doing over Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell in fine style.
With Dave Barker’s moonstomping classic Funkey Reggae on the flip, poised between Shocks Of A Mighty for The Upsetter, and his international smash with Ansel Collins, Double Barrel.
Then again, “Don’t watch that, watch this.”

The very first Basic Channel.
A quarter of an hour of Enforcement, plus a Jeff Mills remix, and an ameliorative dub.
Still thrillingly no-prisoners and 100% unmissable.

1955 field recordings made by Peter Kennedy: fiddles, tin whistle, accordion.

Jah Upton joins Lloyd Barnes and Prince Douglas at the desk for another must-have Bullwackies dub set, originally released in 1977. From tapes recorded at Tubby’s with the Soul Syndicate band.

The Austrian guitarist with Larry Grenadier and Brian Blade, lyrical and grooving by turns.

Alluring duets by Swedish nickelharpa and accordion, inspired by Bach’s sonatas and Pergolesi. (You might recall Matinier from sessions with Anouar Brahem and Louis Sclavis.)

Bracing portions of the screaming abdabs dressed as naked, hooligan machine-funk — fizzing, stomping, juddering and going mental in the furnace of high noon like whizzed-up children of the hydra’s teeth.
