Charles Wright and The Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band (Aka, “Hot Heat and Sweet Groove”) (1968)   Warner Records.   Includes “Spreadin’ Honey,” and “Fried Okra”.       Bill Cosby writes the liner notes here as he brought the band to Warner Bros. after they backed him on his comedy LP “Silver Throat”.   They were the first soul group to be signed by Warner Bros.   The band’s biggest hit was “Express Yourself” which was on their second album out a year later.   Love it, love it, love it.   And what a funky cover!

Arthur Mullard of London.   “Arthur was a fifties and sixties British actor (he usually played the heavy) and sort of comedian…well known for his gravelly, cockney voice and boyish good looks.   His album, a collection of strange cockney monologues and painfully rendered songs (he sings the Beatles “Yesterday” as “Yus-today”) is a masterwork of dreadfulness.   The cover says it all.”   (Contributed by LP cover lover, Jay Strange)

Bill Barner’s “Trolley Bar Party” on Arrow Records. Must be San Franscisco based. I like that it’s tagged as being in “Mirth-Quake” compatible stereo. “Recorded as performed before a night club audience” (But not really?)
