CRUD CRUD

CRUD CRUD is a tour through the stacks of records, demo tapes, etc. that surround me. No recycled MP3s, CD tracks, or reissues here. Average price paid for the records below is $3. Very few I have spent more than $5 on. I present to you some of my favorites. It keeps the guilt of hording this crud distant.

Sippin' a Cup of Coffee

The Ordells Sippin' a Cup of Coffee b/w Big Dom 45 (Dionn, 1967)

"Oh oh oh! A-ah! Ummmmmm" That is exactly what I said when I dropped the needle on this one. From the accent on the first beat followed by the slow string drag I knew that this was gonna be a killer. The background vocals moan and then the falsetto slides in. The slow dreamy pace together with string swells and jabs, gorgeous vocals, and a muted trumpet that sits in the back and sounds like a car horn way in the distance: Add that all up and it is one of the best moody soul songs ever.

And that is not all. Flip this pup and hear a great funky, seat of the pants instrumental.

A perfect record!!!

uhh, looking at the photo i just have to ask... was it you who wrote sex/sex/sex on the label?

# posted by  Anonymous : 00:29

 

Nope. Notice it also says "ton",
On the other side the writing is
"sex ton" & "sexton." Probably the original owner's name.

• Because we believe that an artist should have say-so in how his or her work is used and whether or not it should be given away without their compensation, we attempt to contact every artist to obtain their permission to post their music. This is much simpler than you'd assume it is. Once we have their permission, we post their music. However, there are a couple exceptions: If the artist is dead and the work is out of print, we feel that asking permission from a corpse is a waste of time. In fact, we'd be frightened if we got an answer. Second, if we cannot track down an artist or a label, and have good reason to think that they are not among us, we will post something. There are also countries in which records were made that no longer exist. This makes it near impossible to track anyone down responsible for that kind of record. Records that were produced anonymously or without crediting the artist are also free game, as far as we are concern. But, please, note that in all cases we have attempted to contact the artist, not because we feel we are legally obligated to do so, but we feel that it is the ethical and respectful way of going about things. Do unto others....

  Please do not link or hotlink MP3s. I can be contacted at ss (at) s-srecords.com Because of bandwidth issues, please download instead of stream.

  All files are up for about a week or two. Once they are gone they are gone. Do not email me asking for MP3s. I do not have the time to honor requests and I don't keep the files. I have the records, I don't need the MP3.
