Few days late on this. But some time ago I happened to come into possession of an extremely rare Japanese LP...one that would make the heads of thousands of European funk boomer collectors scream 🥸 🤭
I present to you: "Body Pressure" by Sho Nuff!
The history/context behind this release isn't anything extraordinary if I have to be honest. Basically Sho Nuff was an obscure American funk band (from Mississippi I think) that released some music in the US before somehow making a Japan-only exclusive LP. No CD release as of yet
Despite being a Japan-only release, somehow this became really sought after by funk collectors from Europe. When I say "sought after" by them I REALLY mean it. Why? Hell if I know 😂
Is it a good album? YES.
Worth the high price? Not really.
Will I rip this? ...Come on now. 🤓
Here's a sample I found online if you guys feel like checking it out.
Oh, I've also been blessed to come across a new copy of the ever-so-elusive Jam Trip Igano Kabamaru album...previously I've tweeted how I've been on the lookout for this one since my first (and previous) copy was badly warped.
Happy to announce this one came just fine 🤠
