Silly Savage made it onto Kebs Legendary Deep Funk Vol. 2.

The Twistin' Kings track you're looking for is 'Congo Twist'. That made it onto a Blue Note comp. possibly the blue breaks series.

Pretty sure the Village Callers got comped on the Ultimate Breaks n Beats series too.

'Hector' was comped on The Sound Of Funk Vol.1 (Goldmine).

'The Push' was on Pure Vol.7 (Pure).

The Sir Stan is on the Rustler's comp, Because You're Funky. And according to Grand Slam, his second comp is pretty much all tittyshakers...

That article mentions that tittyshaker music isn't represented much in the UK, obviously he hasn't been to a Brillo meet then... neither have the strippers come to mention it.

The Twisting Kings is called "Congo Twist" on the LP but the 7" is just called "Congo" (parts 1 and 2)

So is it a completely different take then, to the album?

The album track has a vocal led intro asking the crowd to get ready to Congo Twist. And the whole albums theme is around the various 'Twists' of the day.

Odd that they should call the 45 lift something different.

Poop tune too IMO.

The 45 doesn't have the vocal intro - it just comes straight in on the drums. I don't have the LP but have heard "Congo Twist" from it and as far as I can tell it's the same recording.

Maybe they put it out as a single first and then decided to recycle it on the twist-ploitation LP?

Quite a bit of interest in this when I played it at the last Brillo.

Yeah, I just did some google research.

I'ld say you're right on the 45 release - or of course the other way round in terms of release date with the album.

I remember playing this out before off of the album and it got a reaction - so maybe not poop then. Nice bassline, I seem to recall.

"Hector" by the Village Callers was also on a compilation called "Brotherhood", released by Luv N Haight back in 1994.
I think Vampisoul just reissued the live album the track was taken from, should be easy to get on vinyl.

happy new year to you all!!

When the strippers do arrive, let me know & I may make an appearance myself.

And what's this talk of a 2nd Rustler comp? Â What's on it? Â Didn't even know it was out yet! Has it got a load of late 50s/early 60s stuff on it like he originally intended?

Only out on CD? Outrageous!
I only own the Bad Boys 'Black Olives' 45 out of that lot - nice dirty garage/R&B instro from '66. Is that the general style of the other cuts or is it a total mish-mash?

I have to say that I've never rated 'Hector'
But I love that Vampisoul 45 series - good quality, like.
Especially into Joe Bataan's 'Chick-A-Boom' - totally where I'm at these days.
Also got the Cal Tjader one.
Is there any more in the 45 series or just these 3 at the moment?
