CAVALIERS UNLIMITED
Soul Vein / The Nasty
7"
This has previously been reissued by DJ Shadow's Cali-Tex label, but now makes a welcome return thanks to the archive-plundering Mississippi Records crowd, who release this as a highly limited first instalment of their North Portland Music Series, a proposed outlet for the sort of music that's been made in their backyard (and for that matter, continues to be made - they're calling out for submissions). This 7" was recorded in 1968, and features two slices of extremely raw, rough-eded instrumental funk. The production values are pretty low and the performances themselves are a tad unkempt, but the wild drum breaks are a sampler's dream, sounding utterly ancient and brutal in all the right ways. Highly Recommended, and strictly limited.
