The Lost 45s of Sudan (ShellacHead Annual 2015)
by ShellacHead

supported by 8 fans who also own “Parchman Farm: Photographs and Field Recordings, 1947–1959”

Absolutely amazing compilation. Takes you back to another time and another place. A lot less outside influence than Sudanese music you find in the 80s (not that that's bad), but certainly can hear the threads that run through. Great stuff! bonnieprince

How no-one has commented on this absolute insane riff-age is beyond me. It bangs on the inside of your head feeling better and better each time until you start rocking along with it. The tight vocal screams sending it over the edge into an adrenaline fueled cluster fuck. Gorgeous and colourful. simongordon123
