Rantanplan – Am Meer (7")
€10.90*
-
Red/White Vinyl
"Rantanplan" sind seit fast 30 Jahren eine feste Institution und das
schon lange nicht mehr "nur" innerhalb der Subkulturen, haben mit ihrem
letzten Album "AHOI" 2023 nur knapp die Top Ten verfehlt (Platz 11 /
03.03.2023). Mit dem unveröffentlichten und exklusiv auf Vinyl
erhältlichen Song "Am Meer" meldet die Band sich auf Sunny Bastards
Records zurück. "Am Meer" ist genau der richtige Ohrwurm "um am Strand
zwischen 3 Elementen zu liegen" und gut gelaunt den Sommer mit einem
kühlen Bier zu genießen! Extrem tanzbarer Ska-Punk und klarer Hit von
der Waterkant! Die B-Seite "Sand am Meer" greift nur vordergründig das
unbeschwingte Sommergefühl auf, denn Rantanplan waren schon immer mehr
als nur eine Spaßkapelle und verpacken ihre gesellschaftspolitischen
Botschaften subtil statt plakativ in ihre Musik. "Idioten gibt's wie
Sand am Meer"_wer will da schon widersprechen? Bislang nur online aus
"Ahoi"-Sessions als Single Digital 2021 veröffentlicht, gibt es den Song
jetzt endlich auch erstmals auf Vinyl! Streng limitiert auf insgesamt
500 Exemplare erscheint die 7" im Hardcover in bunter Vielfalt als
red'n'white inside out und clear with blue & black splatter vinyl
(je 200 copies ww).
Annette Clarke / Lee Perry - Sinner Man / Sinner Man Dub (7")
€16.90*
The reissue of Annette Clarke's 'Sinner Man,' produced by the legendary
Lee Perry, is a gem for Reggae enthusiasts and vinyl collectors.
Released on Harlem Shuffle Records, this 7" vinyl brings back the
sought-after 1973 track that seamlessly blends Reggae with a touch of Ska, adding an extra layer of allure for fans of the genre. Side 1
features the original 'Sinner Man,' a track from Early Reggae days while
hinting at the infectious energy of Ska. Clarke's vocals are
compelling and Perry's production gives the song a timeless quality. On
Side 2, the Lee Perry dub version takes the track to another dimension.
With heavy echo effects and the rhythm pushed into the background,
Perry's dub creates an immersive experience that highlights his genius
as a producer.

Tommy McCook & Buster's All Stars - Cast Your Faith To The Wind / Frank Cosmo & Buster's All Stars - I Am The Greatest (7")
€18.90*
Kicking off with a beautiful and striking piano intro by Gladdy Anderson, this is a scorching Ska version of an instrumental jazz tune, featuring the Buster All Stars in full flow, led by bandmaster Tommy McCook and backed by Drumbago’s simple but driving drumbeat. The evening I first heard this tune, I couldn’t get the intro out of my head all night.On the UK Blue Beat pressing, Monty Morris is incorrectly credited as the artist on I am the Greatest. But it is actually Frank Cosmo who features on this up-tempo Ska number with its impressive opening trumpet fanfare and Buster’s proclamation that, “I am the Greatest!” Frank Cosmo was active during the Ska era and recorded numerous tracks for Buster and Beverley’s, but I don’t know of any Rock Steady recordings by him.
