(Today I put my iPod on "all albums, random shuffle" and this is just how it spun... I have a bunch of digitized reggae 45s on there, and instead of album name they're tagged by matrix number, which is different for the A and B side, hence the album shuffle produces a lot of single cuts, which always works well, and today made for a particularly lovely Sunday afternoon and evening... the non-Jamaican artists like Eddy Detroit and Syd tha Kyd blended in beautifully... so did Voice of the Seven Thunders and Nicolas Jaar, for that matter... also great how the Wadada & Bebey albums eased us from reggae into jazz/soul/funk/African, slowly swinging around the Caribbean up the Eastern Seaboard and then out across the Atlantic to Ghana... there was also something very heavy about the segue from Bebey into Roedelius into Chris & Cosey and then Sun Ra.... go ahead and click through the cuts yourself, in order, but remember, to get the full experience, you have to wait for one to finish before clicking the next one!) (And on that note, I'm sorry I couldn't find a youtube for the New Establishment cut.)
