Indo-Jazz Fusion - Music For People Who Go Their Own Way (National)
Picture sleeve petrol promotional 45 featuring (bizarrely again) the John Mayer Group.

Brilliant moog groover on the flip of a nice promo 45
Honky - Give It All You Got/Can't Sit Down (Creole)
Ignore the a-side, the b-side is a brilliant jazz-funk-rock workout which sounds oddly like Frank Zappa at his funkiest.

See above, but with the cheesy Tatooine nightclub tune as well.
