Found a couple of Brazilian bits in Florence this morning for a good price. Came across the shop by chance on the way to the airport with wife and kid so only had 10 mins for a quick dig. Spent most of the journey home thinking about all the other shit that might have been in there

Haha yeh, rapid. Everything was mixed up too, which usually I don’t mind but was a nightmare under time pressure.

15 euro for that Santiago LP is a steal! O Amigo De Nova York is all time banger!

Yeh and i got a discount for buying two! Most of the records in the shop were priced 15 euro, which is why it stings that i didn’t have more time to check every corner. Pretty rare to find a place nowadays where everything hasn’t been priced via discogs.

Only Your Love (Milk Bar Mix):
A track I first knowingly heard thanks to someone posting it up on this forum, love it to bits.

Electra: Autumn Love/Purple
Autumn Love is a track I have loved since I first heard in on Christmas Day 1989 on the The House Sound Of Europe comp. Shortly after I bought the 12" Autumn Love (Future 4) which is a lovely remix and improves the original in my opinion.
Decades latter I notice on Discogs that the Promo of Autumn Love has a exclusive track called Purple on it. I searched the internet and couldn’t find a clip of it (this was about 10 years ago). And have been planning to buy the promo for years so I can finally hear Purple.
Well the seller I bought the above Bananarama 12" of had the Electra record for cheap so I took the punt.
The record arrived and I finally get to hear Purple…and I think its a bit rubbish :cry:
Its basically a version of Cry Sisco! – Afro Dizzi Act (another favorite of mine) but its not great, sounds like a Bonus Beat rather than a proper track. Oh well its been a fun decade or so imagining what it will sound like :slight_smile:
I then remember something, Oakie did a remix of Afro Dizzi Act, The Raid Mix, which I have and never play as its rather unimpressive IMO. So I pull out the Raid Mix give it a spin and find the additional elements that were added to the Raid Mix were used to make Purple (or visa versa). it basically is a bonus beat of Afro Dizzi Act but Oakies Raid Mix rather than the Original.

How did I not know of a new Crooked Man!

Sounding good

Always loved it, and Destiny on t’other side. Wasn’t particularly cool back then, more of a guilty pleasure from memory, hearing it a lot these days, which is nice :wink: .

It is, quite a mad sounding track!
