The debut record from Black Devil Disco Club – a legendary French group who mixed spacey keyboards and electronics with warmly clubby grooves! The key force here is Bernard Fevre – who handles all the electric touches, and does a great way of warming things up from some of the colder modes that were coming out of other Euro scenes at the time, particularly Germany – as there's a stripped-down feel to the tracks that makes them feel more organic and live than work coming out of a more process studio system! There's a fair bit of conga work at times too, which makes a nice balance with the keyboards and electronics – on titles that inlcude "Follow Me", "We Never Fly Away Again", "H Friend", "Timing Forget The Timing", "One To Choose", and "No Regrets". LP, Vinyl record album

Not the Black Devil Disco club, but instead a very unique combo from the South African scene of the 70s – one that features all sorts of cool work on organ and guitar from leader Pops Ismail Mohammad – and both flute and tenor from SA jazz legend Basil Coetzee! The album's a bit jazz, but it's also more in a soul instrumental mode – with drums and bass fleshing things out, but still keeping a nicely laidback groove – and one that's very different than you might expect from the "disco" in their name! Titles include "Slow Mood", "Kids In The Dark", "Whiter Shade Of Pale", "Spiritual Feel Riding The Blue", "Dawn", and "No More Tears". LP, Vinyl record album
