Another The Letter – Wire

Ah, los Wire: consiguieron desconcertar a todo el mundo con un sonido que nunca se había escuchado antes, y nos dejaron tres discos en los que aún perdura la maravillosa sensación de que cualquier cosa es posible. Si " Pink Flag " podría ser considerado la sublimación del estilo en la medida en que llevaba el DIY (¡y la concisión!) a su última frontera, en " Chairs Missing " los británicos desafiaban al cacareado  no future desde el propio corazón del movimiento, tendiendo puentes hacia el art-pop (¿No cabría imaginar un " Another The Letter " en manos de [...]

Do What You Will

Do What You Will San Francisco's Reynolds Records was only around for a few years spanning the 1970s, releasing a catalog of strong Bay Area funk and soul material. Producer, Songwriter and horn player Steve Marshall's first appearance on the label is on this masterpiece of haunting deep soul. His subsequent releases on the label head straight into disco territory. After cutting two versions of his hit "Maintain" he released an album length statement Do What You Will in 1978. The LP is a consistent listen start to finish and leaning toward extended instrumental jamming with clean [...]

Witch Queen

Witch Queen Witch Queen was a studio project from the legendary Gino Soccio. The A side of this 12" is a cover of T-Rex's panty dropper "Bang A Gong," and the B side, "Witch Queen," is also credited to Marc Bolan. I can't find a T-Rex version of "Witch Queen," so it looks like he wrote it for Soccio's project before his untimely passing. The end result was a truly unique fusion of Italo Disco & Glam Rock.

Top 10 Rhythm And Blues Hits Of 1978

Top 10 Rhythm And Blues Hits Of 1978 Michael Jackson, 1978 1978 was a year when it was hard to find anything that came close to R&B that wasn't wrapped in polyester and smothered in a strobe light. 1979 was a bit better, though, with the debut of Prince, a classic album by Michael Jackson and the last great single by Issac Hayes making up the Top 10 R&B hits of the year. 10. Prince - "I Wanna Be Your Lover" When he showed up on his first album wearing panties and stockings, it was safe [...]

Bargain Bin Treasure - Snail - S/T 1978

Bargain Bin Treasure - Snail - S/T 1978 For some reason, I'd been avoiding buying this album, despite finding it in my dollar bin dives nearly every week. See, when I was a neophyte dumpster diver, back in high school, this album was already a regular flip in the bins on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley. Since Snail were a local band (sort of, they're from Santa Cruz which is loosely a part of the SF Bay Area) they've always been around the local record shops. And Cream Records was notoriously awful at promoting rock bands, like Legs Diamond, that really should've hit a bigger audience. [...]

The Kinks: “Father Christmas”

The Kinks: “Father Christmas” The great picture sleeve from the "Father Christmas" single It was only a matter of time before the Kinks' classic "Father Christmas" showed up here on Reselect during the holiday season, as I'm sure you must have known. It's just too good a song, with wit too sly and a melody too rocking, to be kept unposted for too long. The recording of "Father Christmas" began during the recording of the Kinks' 1977 album Sleepwalker , but apparently didn't get completed until they were recording 19782s  Misfits , most [...]
