Instant Funk - Self Titled
We stopped briefly at the record fair Saturday afternoon. One of the sellers had bought a DJ collection which had been meticulously but irritatingly catalogued by a V Russo. My brief detective work notes it was the collection of an 80’s Gold Coast DJ Vince Russo who ran a club called the Penthouse. Which led me to the very politically incorrect abc headline article from 2020. Now if I’d known this PRIOR I would have gone early in the day. I assume most of the collection was picked over and I’d already spent a bunch of my record budget earlier in the day but I did pick this one up. Famous for the opening track sampled by De La Soul for A Roller Skating Jam Named "Saturdays".

This one is so much fun, I played it twice.

Skyy – Skyyport

Still catching up on posts…

I bought two Skyy albums that weekend. This album cover is so unnecessary I love it. I love that everyone is having the best time in their matching outfits and batons except for guy second in on the right.

The seller was chuffed I was buying some Skyy telling me they were his fave Salsoul band.

Skyy – Skyline

Still catching up on posts…

It was my partners birthday day prior and they wanted to pop down to the interstate seller record fair. There seems to be a record fair on almost every weekend these days.

Picked this up, still sealed but not warped after finding all the right band wrong albums.

Today whilst reading about Skyy I read the Dunning sisters in 2007 tried to set a Guinness World Record for the largest kazoo band. Can you fucking imagine!?!

Moment of Truth - Self Titled

These men mean business. They are here to sing to you about love and they are going to do it with a killer beat and killer vocals. Don't let those masks and their turtlenecks intimidate you, they are all heart.

I picked this up from a small market stall in Collingwood. A DJ was selling a handful of records at a hodge podge market. It's in fab condition all things considered. Inside the sleeve I noticed a folded piece of paper. I thought it was going to be a love note. But it was a Salsoul ad for their t-shirts. Shipping in the US was advertised as 75 cents. That hurt to read!
