Hot On The Wheels Of Jazz Funk


Throbbing Gristle - 20 Jazz Funk Greats

Tonight's second seminal and essential vinyl album ripped to 24bits at 96000hz. Like Metal Box, when you listen closely to 20 Jazz Funk Greats you can hear how the band's influence was to cast far and wide. Not just to the industrial generation, but to a whole plethora of post-punk & synthpop bands, as well as numerous noise terrorists.
Ripped warts and all (it is not the greatest pressing), I adopted a manual click removal regime so as to maintain every detail of the original audio. The end result is superb, save for a few flaws in the vinyl which you will no doubt notice if you listen really closely.

Ripped from a vinyl album released on Industrial Records (IR 0008) in 1979 to high resolution and high quality 24-bit FLAC audio.

Throbbing Gristle - Something Came Over Me


How do you follow an early Foetus single? I suppose a Genesis P-Orridge ode to wanking will have to do!
Yup, my copy is in the camo plastic bag, is yours? They all were, weren't they? Back in the day, spin this at many a teen party and ooh the sniggles and innuendos ...is he really singing about having a hand shandy? Surely not! He is, sniggle sniggle.
Just a point of order, I'm pretty sure that Subhuman should be the flipside, not the A-side - am I right on this?
