Records that changed your life
There has been much discussion on the various DJ message boards around the net recently about the record(s) tht changed your life. That rendered you speechless and had a fundamental effect on you musical taste, so here are mine:
The Clash - Sandinista (I have been into this in a post before)
The Upsetters - Super Ape (Space age lo-fi dub)
James Carr - The Complete Goldwax Singles (Reignited my passion for deep soul - utterly peerless)
Funkadelic - Free Your Mind And Your Ass Will Follow (Deranged acid-rock-funk)
Eddie Kendricks - Girl You Need A Change Of Mind (Disco is much much more than YMCA, Bee Gees and Abba)
Willis Jackson - Nuthern Like Thuthern (Oh my God! Jazz you can dance to!)
Moodyman - Black Mahogani (Oh my God! Dance music that sounds like jazz!)

Apart from The Clash, which I reckon you put in as a red herring, I've decided you've made the rest of those artistes up. Come on, they don't exist, do they? (Excuse me if they do. Perhaps I've overdone the Murakami.)
They are all entirely real in the sense that I own CDs by all of them, but I guess they could all be imaginary front for Stock-Aitken-Waterman productions (to tie it neatly into your Kylie/marriage post over in Berlin). I could furnish you with tracks, but I'm in the middle of sorting my CDs (day off - cleaning, etc), so I have no idea where they are. Moodymann did, however, sample Frankie Goes To Hollywood on one track.
