What is On The Decks

What music i am playing now -

Seigen Ono - The Green Chinese Table (Virgin Venture LP 1988)

East meets west in this post minimalist classical melange. Beautful,introspective and yes melodic!
Infact after a night of Djing it comes over all relaxing and karmic in an ambient way without falling into that wallpaper muzak hole that many albums of its ilk falls into.

Average White band  & Ben E. King - Benny and Us (Attlanric LP 1977)

An underrated album in my opinion. This seems like a perfect marriage of Scottish funk with the soul of a legendary artist such as Ben E. King. High praise indeed but i believe is justified.
I must state from the outset that i do have a soft spot for AWB ever since "Pick Up The Pieces". Ben takes the lead vocals on this outing. There is so many fine tracks on this Lp with my favourites being "Get it Up for Love", "A Star In The Ghetto" and "What is Soul?". If you see this cheap in the racks buy it
