Re-press of rare, interesting disco/funk LP from Ghanaian Sidiku Buari. The LP was recorded in the USA, and is from 1979, but sounds more like it’s from 1977. It’s a mix of disco and funk, at times the backing sounds reminiscent of the Crown Heights Affair. [disco]

Lindstrom & Christabelle – Real Life Is No Cool
LP | Smalltown Supersound | sts159lp | € 19.00
Lindstrom’s latest album is his most coherent one yet. Less of the improvised doodling (which we like) and more of a poppy approach. From the Michael Jackson influenced disco stomper ‘Baby Can’t Stop’ to the downtempo brilliance of ‘Lovesick’ and everything in between. It’s all good. [balearic-disco-pop]
