Picture this:
Spring/Summer 1988, California Sunrise's, Nut Nut's, Ohm's.
Sitting in base bins with machines bellowing smoke.
Dayglow bras, happy people everywhere and the Old Bill Shop right next door!
I remember "Acid Heaven" being played at the 'Car Wash' Lambeth bridge by Mr "Brian G" in summer 88 whilst on one or three.
All seemed normal and tunes like these made perfect sense at the time!
This tune, R+R's 'Acid Off A Way' and Pilot Jones 'Fall Out Of Love'
Proper Acid House for proper Acid Ted's.
Aceeeeeed

The B-side is my favourite all time acid house track, mainly because while fully bonafide acid house, it was unlike any other acid house of it's time.
While Phuture were the source and masters and set the structure of the scene and mode of music this ignored that set rule and boy does it stay the test of time.
I could happily never listen to the A-sides though.

'Acid Heaven' hunt this record down just for this flipside track! It's a beautiful, dreamy piece of hypnotic acid house. Unbelievably underrated and mysterious, could play this strange and lovely record all night. Hunt this one down and roll one!

Love the Phuture style vox on that track too.
essential.
