Carducci Bros is the collaborative release from brothers Mark and Joe Carducci, Mike Watt, and Jerry Trebotic. The project was spurred into action when Watt heard a decades-old record from Mark’s high school rock band Midknight. The songs are accented with spoken word lyrics from Joe, with some penned by SST Records’ house producer/engineer Spot, who passed during the record’s creation. Featuring a deft rhythm section and Mark Carducci’s reverb drenched guitar, the project showcases the unique creative vision that has made the SST scene such a vital and enduring force for decades.

The artwork features a painting by the late Joseph F. Carducci, Mark and Joe's uncle whose paintings also grace the covers of Joe's books Life Against Dementia, and Rock and the Pop Narcotic

Guitar virtuoso Dennis Coffey’s first LP for Westbound Records was released in 1975, and is a tour de force in funky guitar wizardry unlike anything else. While Coffey’s technical fireworks remain the centerpiece of the record, some of the rawer psychedelic elements of his earlier work are replaced by a slicker, more produced sound. This new style clearly lays the groundwork for Coffey’s transition, as the 70's progress, into a more commercial, disco-oriented sound on his own recordings, as well as on his writing and production work for other artists such as CJ and Co. This long overdue reissue, retitled Finger Pickin Good, was remastered by Dave Gardner and includes the previously unissued bonus track “What It Is It Ain’t”.

A1 ‘If You Can’t Dance To This You Got No Business Havin-Feet'
A2 Finger Lickin Good
A3 I’ve Got a Real Good Feeling
A4 Honky Tonk
A5 El Tigre
B1 Live Wire
B2 Some Like It Hot
B3 Fame
B4 Wild Child
B5 What It Is It Aint*

Earth Creature by Boobie Knight & The Universal Lady is a vibrant and soulful album that encapsulates the essence of 1970s funk and soul. Originally released on Brunswick Records' subsidiary Dakar Records in 1974, the album features a dynamic fusion of groovy rhythms, horn sections, and Boobie Knight's charismatic vocals, driven by heavy psychedelic fuzz guitar. With its rich instrumentation and spirited performances, it stands as a testament to the funk era's enduring influence. Tracks from the record have been famously sampled by artists such as Outkast, N.W.A., and 50 Cent, among others.
