LISTEN: Death Ain’t No Big Deal by Rev. Brown

Every now & again, between cigarette breaks, after the show, the recording machine will be left unattended and running. Sometimes, we end up with what, more often than not, becomes some sort of cherished artifact for the GF archive. Remembering one such time when the Shoal Creek Stranglers would pick & lick their way through Sinful Sunday Singings, a free show & supper combo hosted at various churches in the Georgia & South Carolina area. It was an occasion when associates would track their own performance, at times unbeknownst to them.

As we round out the first half of 2021, we see a new single release from the latest group signed to Gypsy Farm, known only as "Jockey Lot Boyz" (a reference to South Carolina's largest flea market of the same name).

Release: Early Hits & Rarities by the William Ross Group

If you're confused as to just who this group is, much less currently consists of, the forthcoming venture of musical noise may offer little assistance with any further clarification. From the opener "Foax", we submerse into some kind of universal airport terminal that creeps and crawls along, slightly behind schedule while the listener may drift in-and-out of cave-dance consciousness, accepting the charges of what ghoulish collect call that is "Northern Telecomm 1967" before stoking into some low-down, late night, toasty-trio rehearsal on "Sundown In Pumpkintown / Soul & Sea Foam".
