Released 40 years ago today, here's Ferris Bueller giving the former drummer of Sonic Youth (and trumpeter in Liquid Liquid and The Offs) Richard Edson 5 bucks to watch his friend's dad's Ferrari www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVAC...
Aside playing on the first Sonic Youth EP and with Liquid Liquid, Konk etc, Edson also appears on trumpet on these dubs of The Offs which I released earlier this year rongorongorongo.bandcamp.com/album/first-...
We discussed all this and so much more on my old radio show last year www.mixcloud.com/sohoradio/wr...

Arguably the greatest semi-cover of Bob Marley delivered in the style of Tenor Saw by the son of British-Ghanaian jazz legend and former Government Entertainment Officer for Ghana under Kwame Nkrumah, Cab Quaye, who recorded this record when he was only 15 years old www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLG2...

'There's Nothing Like This' originally came out in 1990 on Kongo Dance Records which was run by Omar's dad Byron Lye Fook, legendary drummer for everyone from Doris Troy to Colin Blunstone
Arguably the greatest UK soul single based on 'Heaven Must Be Like This' by The Ohio Players and recorded on an 8 track in his dad's living room, then copied repeatedly onto a 90 minute cassette which he listened to for hours, then took it to his dad who also listened on repeat until he released it
