Charged, gritty, soulful pop yeh yeh from 1968-71, with backing by Malaysian legends like The Rhythm Boys, The Wanderers, The Flamingoes and The Falcons.
With a full-size, eight-page, colour booklet containing detailed biographical notes and Othman’s own rare photos.
Excellent mid-seventies roots by this singer from Jack Ruby’s Hi Fi.
Neglected, stunning, mystical Upsetters roots — with scrumptiously extended trombone — first released in Amsterdam on Henk Targowski’s Black Art imprint (bundled with special mixes of Cane River Rock and Dread Lion).
Six tracks spanning infectious Polish disco (Karolak and Korzyński), bustling break-heavy jazz from the Polski Jazz Ensemble and Russki Yahilevich, heartwarming spiritual jazz from Hungary’s Binder Quintet (featuring John Tchicai)... and Alojz Bouda’s oddball Slovakian synth banger, Random.
