It's Warm Out....

Swamp Children - So Hot

Ripped from a vinyl album released on Factory Records (FACT 70) in 1982 to high resolution 24-bit flac audio. Meanwhile in Manchester we had the Swampies who later became Kalima. Here's some latin-jazz-pop from Manchester's streets, charming yet naive at times, this is the sound of kids who loved jazz dance, making a jazz dance record whilst learning to play instruments (and a guitarist masquerading as a drummer) borrowed from A Certain Ratio. Having said that John Kirkham does show some classy virtuoso work on the guitar. Not the greatest pressing ever, so if you want crackle free sound please seek out the reissue cd compilation on LTM.
