Hot & Warped playlist from 5/20

Thanks for joining me for this thing we call Hot & Warped. An eclectic all-vinyl radio program which airs live every Monday night 10-midnight (EST) at WMUA.org. The show features classic & contemporary, rare & reissue, weird & straight musics. To hell with weak ears!

Grachan Moncur III..."Space Spy"...New Africa...(Actuel)
Another classic from the Actuel imprint. These albums were iconic to me as a growing-eared lad. Collect them all!




Son House..."Death Letter"...The Legendary Father Of Folk Blues...(Sony-Japan)
From his comeback in '65. 

Henri Guédon..."Vulcano"...v/a-Oulele...(Comet)
Wishing our master percussionist from Guadalupe a happy birthday in boogaloo heaven.


Joseito Mateo con la Orq de Rafi Pou..."Esto es New York"...45...(Quisqueya)
Rare salsa on 45.

Another project with Budos Band connections. 


Leon Mitchison & the Eastex Freeway Band..."Street Scene" (original)...12"...(Now Again)

A classic from the recently-deceased Jamaican reedsman, and one of my all time favorite musicians.

The Parliaments..."(I Wanna) Testify"...45...(Revilot)

Sun Ra..."I Am The Alter-Destiny"...Space Is The Place soundtrack...(Sutro Park)
Sun Ra's earth arrival day was this week. This recording was the soundtrack to the classic outer space flick starring Ra. Originally released on a CD in the early 90s, the vinyl only came out in 2010.

Rufus Harley..."Malaika"...Re-Creation Of The Gods...(Ankh)
Some bagpipe funk for your pleasure. Happy birthday to the late Rufus Harley, who was also a damn fine tenor player as well.


Improvisational Arts Quintet..."A New Cycle"...No Compromise!...(Rx)
A very hip private press free jazz record from NOLA, featuring the great Kidd Jordan.

Afrosound..."Dog, Cat"...v/a--The Afrosound Of Colombia...(Vampisoul)
One of my favorite compilations of the last few years, a supremely deluxe and well-chosen overview of Fruko's productions for Discos Fuentes, put together by DJ Bongohead. Highly, highly recommended.



John Coltrane w/ Rashied Ali..."Venus"...Interstellar Space...(Impulse)
Not released until after Trane's death, this duo with the blacklisted drummer Rashied Ali is one of my favorite records.
