About This Item

Vinyl LP pressing. UK collection. This is the first album of Mickey Stevenson's Venture material. 'Funky Way' was the tag's first and a hit in 1967, despite limited airplay due to having the word InchfunkyInch in the title. It went on to become an early funk classic, covered by Rufus Thomas for Stax, Tommy Strand for Fame, Jimmy Bee for Kent, Ray Johnson and others. Though mainly recorded in Los Angeles, Calvin Arnold was a southern soul singer from Atlanta, Georgia and the material is in that vein - there are Mighty Hannibal produced tracks, recorded in Atlanta. Apart from the eight released sides, Mickey Stevenson's tapes have provided five previously unreleased numbers including the up-tempo mover 'Your Love Is Too Much' and the superb southern funk grooves of 'Trying To Fly My Kite (In Rainy Weather)' and 'Fool Me Baby'. The package features never before seen photos and a 5,000-word biography of the revered singer from Atlanta musicologist Brian Poust. Album Tracks 1. Funky Way 2. Tryin' to Fly My Kite (In Rainy Weather) 3. Snatchin' Back 4. Your Love Is Too Much 5. You Got to Live for Yourself 6. Messin' with the Old Folks Home 7. Mama-In-Law 8. Lovely Way to Go 9.

Eddie 9V - Capricorn   - VINYL LP

As far back as he can remember, Capricorn Studios was calling Eddie 9V. As a kid scanning the sleeves of his favorite vinyl records, this fabled facility in Macon, Georgia, was always the secret ingredient, adding a little grit and honey to every song born on it's floor. Capricorn and the bands who blew through it urged the Atlanta guitarist to ditch school at 15, play his fingers bloody throughout the south, and turn apathy into acclaim for early albums Left My Soul in Memphis (2019) and Little Black Flies (2021).Eddie spent his first quarter-century admiring Capricorn from afar. But in December 2021, the 26-year-old finally put his thumbprint on the studio's mythology, corralling an eleven-strong group of the American South's best roots musicians to track his third album. InchThere was overwhelming excitement at being in such a legendary studio,Inch he says. InchBut we hugged and got right to work. Everyone was joyous, loving, and flat-out playing their asses off.Inch Album Tracks 1. Side A 2. Beg Borrow and Steal 3. Yella Alligator 4. Bout to Make Me Leave Home 5. Are We Through? 6. It's Going Down 7. Side B 8. How Long 9. Tryin' to Get By 10. Down Along the Cove 11. Mary Don't You Weep 12. Missouri 13. I'm Lonely
