First time out for this wildly raw version of the Pablo master-rhythm, shot through with other-worldly incantation. Surely that�s Family Man deep down a hole, and his bro battering all seven shades out of his drum-kit, like Meters on fire. Could be Chinna on guitar, glazed and violent. Producer Gussie Clarke says Theophilus �Easy Snappin� Beckford is playing piano, with the front removed so he can strum the strings (like he just snapped). The mixing rears up right in your face. Transferred from acetate � fuss-pots don�t grumble, just be humble � but the flip brings a clutch of criss, unmissable alternates, from Gussie�s tape-room. Heavy, heavy funk. Stunning.
