THE BELIEVERS (MASAI)
ACROSS THE TRACKS PT1 / PT2
BROWNSTONE 4201
OKAY, YOU LOVE THE SHEEPSKIN RUG, BUT I BET YOU’D PREFER TO BUY THIS SUPER RARE FUNK 45! THIS IS A LEGENDARY RECORD IN FUNK 45 COLLECTOR CIRCLES. THIS IS THE FIRST KNOWN RELEASE OF THIS BELTER OF A TUNE (NUMBER ONE ON THE WWW.FUNK45.COM CHARTS – READ THEIR WRITE UP – AND CHECK THE SOUNDBYTES). PRODUCED BY THE MASTER OF FUNK HIMSELF, JAMES BROWN, AND RELEASED IN VERY SPARSE AMOUNTS ON THE BROWNSTONE LABEL. THIS WAS THEN PICKED UP BY A RUN OF THE MILL UK LABEL, AND RELEASED AS MASAI "ACROSS THE TRACKS". THAT IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE SEARCH FOR WHEN LOOKING FOR THIS TUNE, NOT REALISING THAT IT WAS ISSUE BEFORE THAT ON BROWNSTONE. JUST CHECK THE SOUNDCLIP, YOU’LL SEE WHAT I MEAN. THIS HAS A IMPORT STAMP THROUGH THE RECORD (SEE PHOTO), BUT DOESN’T AFFECT THE PLAYING IN ANYWAY WHAT SO EVER. I CANNOT STRESS THE SERIOUSNESS OF THIS RECORD, SUPER TUNE, JAMES BROWN RELATED, THE SECOND ISSUE GOES FOR HUNDREDS OF POUNDS, HERE’S THE ORIGINAL RELEASE IN EXCELLENT PLUS CONDITION – I ONLY GRADE IT AS THAT AS THERE IS AN IMPORT PUNCH. THE VINYL HAS ONLY THE LIGHTEST OF MARKINGS, AND THE PLAY ISN’T AFFECTED TOO MUCH. THIS IS A GEM OF A RECORD, DON’T SLEEP, YOU WON’T SEE THIS AGAIN IN A HURRY. SICK SICK SICK.
