PRESS-D-1003


wherever i go (with work or at the weekend) i'll always find time to have a little dig. many hours can be wasted for nothing or sometimes i can hit the jackpot. a few months ago mrs s wanted a new duvet, so we set off late on a saturday afternoon to trawl the department stores. i hate shopping at the best of times so when we got there i made my excuses and we agreed to meet up later. as i walked through the door of a chazzer this little beauty was staring me in the face! there was a load of 12"records on the floor and this was at the front. i recognised the label from images on discogs and youtube. i knew this to be a very special record and rare as hen's teeth. it was in excellent condition and i couldn't believe no one else had spotted it. unbelievably, this was the only decent thing in that pile of records. maybe the original owner bought the record and just didn't like it, which would explain the superb condition. intrigue had a few releases but this is the one you want. a truly stunning slice of brit funk. btw this isn't a stock photo off the internet. if you look at the centre hole you'll see the beige carpet upon which i lay all my records before photographing them.
