Sway + Sanchez return tonight to Firehouse 12, 45 Crown ST, New Haven CT, for 4 hours of lost LP gems… it’s been a great summer for crate digging and I’ve excited to be able to deliver some all-new sets.
Above: last week’s finds (thanks DS): The Electric Prunes 2nd LP “Underground”; Twarz, Poland’s Janis c. 1970; Cherry People, obscure Shondells-styled pop rock; Earth Opera, which was Dave Grisman’s psych band before he found fame as a roots performer; FUSION, an early Ry Cooder project, v v Beefheart psych weirdo blues; Barrabas, spanish rock band c. 1970; Black Pearl, a v cool MC5-type Dopers-Play-James-Brown RnB freakout music; and two LPs from The Equals (Israeli pressings ?!?!), utterly fantastic band fronted by a young Eddy Grant.
Come on down to CT’s best bar and hear all the non-hits.
