This double A-side 45 from Sheffield is a pairing of super-cooled instrumental afro-funk and soul tracks. This is trerrificly authentic sounding stuff and could easily be one of those great lost singles that turns up on rare psychedelic funk compilations. Perhaps it will do 20 years from now.
Bushout!'s "Pret$el Chokin" is a powerhouse soul jam with West African horns hogging the spotlight. "Amigaman" by Sparras is a more low slung affair, bound by bongos with a three-way play-off between Hammond keys, wicked guitars and muted sax.
Fucking awesome and rare as hell.
Ltd 7" one-off pressing, limited to only 500. Clear pink vinyl in a handsomely designed sleeve.
320 Kbps.
