      Although I've not heard it myself, 'Darkside' is supposed to quite nice in a drama kind of way... "similar to Hanged Man" I've heard it described as in the past.

        Who wants to release the Sound Stylistics LP then? C'mon! It'll only cost ya £1500 to Bruton for the rights, and some paperwork - you'll make that back, no problemo!

          JTQ have also done 'Retro Acid Jazz' and 'The Hustle' which are worth picking up if you're into their style... the Crockett/Glover team behind the Sound Stylistics 'Deep Funk' also have a library called 'Old School Classics' which is worth looking out for.

            I think this would be a bargain business if any one os organised enough to pull it off. Better still make it a Best of Crockett/Glover/Crockett with tracks from Deep Funk, Old School Classics, Retro Acid Jazz and The Hustle

              I really like Bruton's "blow out" album. Some cool funky jazz tracks from 1980! And one track called "Supersamba" that works very well on the dancefloor:-)

                Which track was sampled? I was under the impression that Relax was one of those Brutons that only I could possibly like!

                  there's a half-decent Hawkshaw early Bruton called 'terrestrial journey' with some tasty space-funk-disco bits. from about '78.

                    BRL1 + BRG7 have a fair whack of disco funkiness too

                      Heavy Rock is pretty good. Has the track &quot;Funko&quot; plus a rip off of KISS &quot;I was Made for Loving you baby&quot;.
                      Speed fever has two worthy tracks, &quot;Indianopolis 2&quot; and &quot;Making the Action&quot;.
                      Light My Fire is pretty good.

                      Cheers,

                          The thing with Brutons is it&#39;s more good tracks scattered here and there rather than good LPs. I have mostly the drama ones, but there are some good disco tracks on some of the others. I like a couple on Light my Fire (Bennett&#39;s Disco Fever, if my memory is right. I have got quite a mass of Brutons but they aren&#39;t really organised.

                            I sold about 300 of them to an American in the Summer. Like BionicBoy intimates, most of them are one-trackers (if any). Took up way too much space so they had to go.
