Boy, their first two albums are such treasures. I’ve listen to them on a monthly basis since 81. I am not exaggerating. Great channel, man. Hope you get more subscribers. You deserve it.

Long ago, composer Steve Reich said quite cattily of Philip Glass that if you knew Glass’ sources of inspiration, you’d be less impressed by his compositions. I guess he was referring to gamelan!
Funny, I didn’t get that until this video. I always thought Phillio was inspired by the Ostinato from baroque music but I can hear the gamelan reference as well

The track dragging your feet sounds great at 33 and 45 . After putting it on the wrong speed initially I could never decide what I preferred
That's a whole topic right there... If the music works at 33 1/3 and 45, it's sort of like getting a bonus album. :)

They were amazing and forgotten, undiscovered... even though RCA took a chance on them. One of my all-time faves! -Sean from Swell
