Description

 

 

BEFORE YOU START:   Dear vinyl collector. I will be selling a very unusual selection of records here in the coming weeks - rare, unknown and sometimes private pressing.  So please save me in your favorite sellers list if you are into obscure funk / disco / cosmic / psyche / scat / library / spaghetti sound.   I am sorry I can't provide samples for all of the forthcoming auctions, since i do not have too much time. Please also check on sites like youtube to see if you can find some audio references. An auction being with or without sample is not related to how good I actually think a record is. Most of the records took me a long time to find and are fantastic additions to your collection. 
  I WILL BE LISTING ONE RECORD EVERY DAY, AT LEAST   TONIGHT:        LOSRISS AND THE ELECTRONIC FIVE - BLACK STAR on Edig, Italy 1978
Not a single copy of this for sale anywhere on the web! 
 A diamond from space. In the vast amount of so called "cosmic" and space - disco records floating around, we hear  similar synths to similar beats a lot. Magic Fly and friends - not with this one. 
The record starts of with soft spacewinds sucking us into an intergalactic scenario, before the twisted synth melody from  the Electronic Five folks will reveal something i would call one of the most remarkable examples of untaggable kraut space  prog on a disco tip. What i like most is the cinematic depth and the softness of the electronic instrumentation. 
As if it wasn't enough already, the sleeve takes cool to another level. Front shows producer Salvaggio in his martial  arts satin kimono, wearing his glasses as he is all "sen" for the shoot and not in combat mode it seems. The back of the  sleeve shows him from behind, showcasing the amazing embroidery of the kimono. Apparently Salvaggio has been teaching  Karate in Italy and needed to hang his black belt into the closet from time to time to record marvelous material such as this.
Obscure as they come and a truly hard to find beauty, especially with the sleeve. Best of luck
Vinyl / Sleeve: EX- / VG+
