down in austin







Just got back from first visit to Austin- Got a few 45s that really made it worthwhile-
Got to enjoy Polvos, Freddies, Continental Club, Stubb’s Gospel BBQ, and Hammond soul in the Continental Club’s gallery upstairs.

Dined wholesomely on hippystyle Mexican food at Mother’s and Mr. Natural- pure food that makes you feel good, and BBQ at Iron Works, floats, fries and shakes at Fran’s Drive In.

Featured beers were Lone Star, Pearl Light and Negro Modelo, and Heineken and Spaten in the studio (local produce was good too). We laid down several new rythms to tape over two evenings-
Finished mixes soon to be forthcoming-
Dropped by KOOP FM and appeared on Art Baker's show, and started each morning at Jo's right next to Austin Motel.

Here are some 45s found in Texas augmented by a couple of Ron Balls’ deadly 45s, and some Luther Johnson cuts that were done with Muddy Water’s Band.
Soulful blues and bluesy soul for together people-
Might be too funky forya-

summer madness



Play this one as your very last song in the dance, and watch the people pair up for sex. Something about Sean Paul's middle class voice and the pimpy sounds of "Summer Madness" really opens everybody up-Unfortunately the only mention of the Bell brothers' landmark slowjam is in the title of the version-

You might not deserve it, but the version is included, along with the instrumental of "Between The Sheets". Get out there and get laid!

booty butt 45 on tangerine



One of Ray's rawest blues, done at his house and self-engineered.
Is that Fathead thumping the keys on his sax percussively?
The black label is a Jamaican pressing I found that was supposedly "LICENSED" from ABC: kind of like the way you see "adapted" or "adopted" for songwriting credits sometimes...

DEAD PRESIDENTS (Willie Dixon)
Them dead presidents
Them dead presidents
Well I ain't broke but I'm badly bent
Everybody loves them dead presidents

A little bit of Lincoln can't park the car
Washington he can't go too far
Jefferson is good, played at the track
If you think you're gonna bring some big bread back

Them dead presidents
Them dead presidents
Well I ain't broke but I'm badly bent
Everybody loves them dead presidents

Hamilton on a ten can get you straight
But Jackson on a twenty is really great
And if you're talking about a poor man's friend
Grant will get you out of whatever you're in

Them dead presidents
Them dead presidents
Well I ain't broke but I'm badly bent
Everybody loves them dead presidents

A hundred dollar Franklin is really sweet
A five hundred McKinley is the one for me
If I get a Cleveland, I'm really set
A thousand dollar Cleveland is hard to get

Them dead presidents
Them dead presidents
Well I ain't broke but I'm badly bent
Everybody loves them dead presidents

V.A. EVIL BLUES 13



Tired of that cute kind of blues that makes you yearn for something a little stronger? These blues will scare the fucking shit out of you, make you question our own mental state and maybe even make you call a friend or your mom.

These blues are not for the faint of heart- the lyrics are desperate, eerie and bleak, and the production is spooky, heavy-handed and horrific. These blues will make you realize without a doubt that someone has made a voodoo doll of you and has slowly started to maim it. These blues do not have a happy ending.
