What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our BRIAN D feeling ecstatic.

MV & EE i'd like to review but we're having a Sade/Ice-T face off here. Dividing office politics right down the centre is a debate on what is "soul". Mingus is our resident soul man, reportedly having seen Sade in her heyday. Phil feels she's erm....not very good. Ant levels the field with a report of Ice-T being a huge Sade fan. Which scares Phil into submission. Whilst this fued is erupting, our soundtrack is this hazey, cosmic slice of forest folk called 'Old Black Joe', a 7" on GPS that just floors me with it's earthy chrms. You can imagine a dog flopped on her lap whilst she purrs dreamily into a cracked mike, a small glass of bourbon and a jazz fag smouldering on a rough pine table by her feet. By far the loveliest thing i've heard from Mr. & Mrs. Valentine. The flip is a more freeform stoned ramble from Planet psychedelic wolf howl. Limited to 500

What the label says:

2 specially recorded, smoked out blues with wondrous erika elder vocal and refrained geetar genius from mv. the b side blazes the stoned out mv+ee sound further. late night fireside / porch epics with byron coley sleevenotes, 500 only. one of 2 GPS mv+ee 45s this year and incredibly, a first outright uk release...

About the humble 7":

The humble 7" is the smallest of the vinyl formats (not including the ridiculous 5") and it's the perfect medium for transporting a couple of new songs by up and coming bands straight into your ears. They're fun and they take up less space in your house than something bigger would. They come in a plethora of exciting colours and fantastical packages, and you can fit about 14 minutes onto one 7". You may have to get up every few minutes to put a new record on but think of the exercise. Don't forget every record you buy plays at least 2 speeds (depending on your stereo) and you need to play all records on all speeds to get the maximum joy from your purchase.
