Slickaphonic – Back Into My Life Again / Bubba (7″) [Soul7 SOUL7051]

If ever there were an act that so correctly set out their stall with a well-chosen name, this was it, and it’s criminal that such an accomplished act has remained barely known until now. From 1975, these are the earliest of the buried-tape revelations in our Albina-Portland series and the straight-up funkiest. Both horn-led sides are among the finest discoveries of their ilk, too – tight but fluid, heavy but joyous – utterly splendid joints that would have set the old Deep Funk scene ablaze.

First time ever on 7″ 45rpm vinyl, dinked centre hole with picture sleeve, 500 numbered copies only.
