The only LP by the mysterious funk group the Skull Snaps on the GSF Label (1973) They were in fact the group originally known as The Diplomats who had released numerous singles between 1963 and 1970 with middling success. Following this Skull Snaps session the group recorded a cover version of the underground hit “Soul Makossa” using the name All Dyrections, for the Buddah label. Two years later they recorded one final single under the Skull Snaps name, ‘Ain’t that lovin’ you’ b/w ‘Al’s razor blade’, for Grill records. Soul Snaps drum breaks have been sampled by rap and hip-hop artists including Ol’ Dirty Bastard and The Prodigy.

Jack Kerouac with jazz greats Zoot Sims and Al Cohn. (1958). His second album on Hanover after “Poems for a Beat Generation” on which he was accompanied by TV talk show host Steve Allen. Produced by Bob Thiele. Click on the back cover here and hopefully you can read the liner notes by Gilbert Millstein. Kerouac calls Zoot and Al “Holy Blakean babies” and says “Zoot and Al blow thoughtful, sweet metaphysical sorrows.” Kerouac actually sings on one cut with Zoot playing piano for the first time on record. Here’s one of the haikus: “In my winter cabinet/the fly has/died of old age” Beat that.
Track listing: American Haikus; Hard Hearted Old Farmer; The Last Hotel & Some Of The Dharma; Poems from the Unpublished Book of The Blues; Old Western Movies; Conclusion Of The Railroad Earth.
Hear some of this record HERE.
