About this product
The trance blues stylings of Otha Turner and his Rising Star Fife And Drum Band should be a music classification unto itself, a whole new primitive take on drum and bass. This music is the oldest still-practiced post-colonial American music, and Turner was one of it's greatest artists of the 20th century. Blowing the cane fife with a band of drummers as back up, The Rising Star Fife And Drum band was legendary in the hills of Tate County, Mississippi, where they would perform during the yearly goat picnics on Turner's farm. These tracks were recorded by Luther Dickinson during such picnics and released when Turner was ninety years old. Everybody Hollerin' Goat shows first hand the hypnotic and rhythmic style of fife and drum music at it's best-raw and beautiful. It is every bit as essential a document of America's folk-music heritage as anything Harry Smith or Alan Lomax ever offered up for posterity. Turner's band included some of his children and grandchildren that have gone on to continue the fife and drum tradition since his death in 2003. This first ever vinyl of Everybody Hollerin' Goat contains a whole side of unreleased recordings from one night of the picnic and is intended to bring the experience of hollerin' for goat in Senatobia, Mississippi to the living room. Dancing around the plants is recommended (but don't eat the pickled eggs). The entire album is remastered by legend Gary Hobish.

*BLACK VINYL RE-PRESS* When the mysterious masked collective calling themselves Goat first emerged in 2012, armed with an incendiary debut album a-World Musica aInch there was, and there still isnat, anyone else on earth quite like them. With their enticing mythology, music full of sinuous grooves and manic explosions of fuzz, Goat were outliers from the very beginning. a-World Musica, received an avalanche of acclaim with critics, psych heads, outernational crate diggers etc, all left enraptured by it's thunderous intensity, conjured from a singular mix of sounds from across the globe. a-World Musica is brimming with tracks now seen as a-classica Goat live favourites. Tracks that have been wowing audiences all over the world; the afrobeat stomp of a-Disco Fevera, the fuzz abuse of a-Goatheada, the post-punk groove of a-Let it Bleeda, the sing-along repetitive pop of a-Run to your Mamaa... From the first note to the last, a-World Musica oozes with a sonic confidence rarely seen on a debut album. What Goat have is unique aInch theyave managed to create a sound unrestrained by genre or any other boundaries. So, if you havenat done so already, then it is now time you joined the Goat commune.
In the 1970s, Kazuki Tomokawa catapulted into Tokyo's avant-garde scene with his cathartic and utterly electrifying performances. Straight from the Throat, Tomokawa's second album, released in July 1976 by Harvest Records, finds the musician in his truest form as the Inchscreaming philosopherInch he would come to be called-cynical but fair, cheeky and melancholic, and looking at the world with truth-seeking eyes. In Straight from the Throat, Tomokawa shrieks and shouts and wallows with ritualistic abandon-his avant-folk stylings are cosmic and, at times, well to ground-shaking rock. He speaks of adolescence, passing hearses, and wedding chapel cars in a poem to his younger brother, Tomoharu, and watches ice melt on the Mitane River with spring's turn. Tomokawa's sound is, as Kiichi Takahara would later dub it, InchI-musicInch revelatory and deeply intimate songs that turn to the everyday and the interior. They are portraits of a man in search of meaning, who is taking stubborn control of his life by doing so. As he croons in InchThe Spring Is Here Again Song,Inch InchI'll drink till I've had my fill / And fall in love until I die.Inch
