Product Description
Contents First-press limited edition Paper jacket packaging The fourth installment of the rare groove pinnacle TSG reissue project delves into its deepest depths, with this TSG original pressing being an ultra-rare record that "nobody has ever seen!" While there are many masterpieces and rare records from the TAX SCAM label, including TIGER LILLY, which featured the Jackson Sisters, the veil is finally lifted on the most mysterious record among them, from TSG, which stands at the very top of the label. This is truly a RARE GROOVE!! This mysterious and challenging album is the ultimate destination for the GROOVE DIGGERS team, who have solved numerous difficult problems in the archaeology of rare groove... It's a different band from REALITY (PCD-24799) which we previously covered in this series (this one is even rarer)... The only clue is that the same recording was released on a different (highlight) jacket by the equally mysterious tax-evasion label GRAHAM INTERNATIONAL, which is also rare but easier to obtain than the TSG version. Incidentally, the pinnacle of TSG, ULTIMATES, was also released on this label with a different jacket, which is also rare, but since this would take too long to explain, let's leave the relationship between these two labels for another time. Thus, the numerous tax-scam labels of the 1970s, released for purposes other than their original intent (=tax avoidance), had many stories associated with them. Furthermore, the limited number of pressings due to these "problems" guaranteed their rarity, and from among them, the ones with the "sound" and "content" were selected and are now revered by collectors around the world as rare groove. Don't miss this opportunity to delve into its deepest depths! And what about the sound of this album? It's already highly regarded as a rare groove, so a certain level of quality is undoubtedly guaranteed, but just to give you a brief overview, it's not a popular track by Tomorrow's People, which was recently released on LP in this series and was well-received worldwide, but it's a double-sided track that's sure to please, with a funk sound featuring a magically endlessly repeating bassline loop intertwined with massive horns, and a soft, mellow mid-tempo track typical of rare groove with a storm of soaring horns and cutting guitar!
