Manfred Krug - Du Bist Heute Wie Neu (LP)
Amiga 8 55 451, 1976 Germany Dusty Fingers break that takes me by surprise every time I play it. Middle of the funky Wenn Der Urlaub Kommt, Günther Fischer simply takes off. Beat diggers, producers, lovers, everyone should have a copy of this bre...

Alojz Bouda - Organ Fascination (LP)
Opus 9113 0438, 1978 Czechoslovakia As the title suggests Alojz gets down and dirty on the organ. Plenty of cheese as expected but also some really fine experimental disco sounds. Flawless condition bordering near mint.

Uschi Brüning - Uschi Brüning (LP)
Amiga 855 896, 1982 Germany Another funky Uschi Brüning recording, even without Günther Fischer, it is still jazzy and good. I like her take of Sly Stone's Higher and Stevie Wonders You Are The Sunshine.... Somewhere between Ex and VG+

CBS S 65804, 1974 Netherlands Little introduction needed here really, the debut album by Indian Dutch femme fatale Asha Puthli is essential. Great vocals on I Dig Love and Lies plus the fantastic drum break, bass-line and Rhodes arrangements on Ri...

Rod Hunter - Soul Makossa (LP)
Decca ND 850, 1974 Germany Hard to find moog driven soul funk afro fun with the Soul Makossa title track being my personal favorite. European only release that does not show up often. Excellent plus plus condition.

Horst Krueger Septett - Geh Durch Die Stadt (LP)
Amiga 855 298, 1972 Germany One of my favorite Amiga releases, this is a seriously funky euro groove record. Really tight arrangements, orchestration, vocals and packed with breaks. Tear on front cover, reduced price.

Manfred Krug - Das War Nur Ein Moment (LP)
Amiga 855216, 1971 Germany Most have their own opinion about Manfred Krug. Some like his poetic and odd vocal style, others dread it. Either way, whenever Gunther Fischer is involved, expect it to be funky.
