Once again, servo-unique and I are in agreement. This is a seriously kick-ass record that doesn't just appeal to retro-electro fetishists. I have a friend from Scotland who lives in New York now who used to do a tribal house night in some club in Glasgow a few years back. He's definitely more into the house, funk, and soul side of electronic music than I am. We appreciate each other's music, but aren't always in total agreement. Anyway, I put this record on one night without even thinking about it, and when I came back to the living room from the refrigerator he was struttin' around, scrunching up his face, and pumping his fist down low, going "Oh, yeah!" He couldn't help himself. I think it was that steel guitar-sound on the first track that got him. Anyway, the moral of this lame story is that you should get an earful of this record if you can, even if you think you don't really like electro.
