On The 8th And 9th Day Of Wobs...

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

And the seventh day come to think of it: The O'Jays, offered again for people whose YSIs didn't work before.

And now onto an advent double bill:


Sugar Minnott and the Brentford Disco Set - "Christmas Jamboree"

A Studio One 7" (digitised by unknown benefactor) and one of the more lugubrious Wobs tracks you're likely to hear. Not because of any heart-breaking loneliness, oh no, Sugar Minnott wishes you a lot of Christmas fun, it's just he sounds like Droopy when he does it.





Duke Ellington - Sugar Rum Cherry

Picked up on a thread over at the Other Place, this is a gloriously woozy and ripe version of Tchaikovsky's Sugar Plum Fairy. (Great, evocative title too.)

ahem sukrat is The Other Place DYS

there may be AN-other place that dare not speak its name, but there is no THE about it.

The Sugar Minott is nice, btw... only, I wish he'd thought up some wobs-relevant lyrics. Other than his insisting that it is in fact Christmas time, you'd hardly know it from the song.
