Oscar Brown Jr. -- I Was Cool -- Sin & Soul (R.I.P. Please read my notes below. He Was indeed Cool! )
Kebek Flektrik -- Wardance #1 -- 12" -- Rio (Electro Disco classic from Gino Soccio and Pat Deserio. Oddly enough the two usually went under the moniker "Kebekelektrik" , allowing me to wonder if this 81 release was a boot?)
----
Tom Ze -- Curiosidade -- 12" ep (remixed by John McEntire)
Pucho & The Latin Soul Brothers -- Freddie's Dead-- Super Freak (yes, this is a Curtis Mayfield cover. Funkier, with more breaks and all instro. The record also came out several years before the Rick James single.)
52nd Street -- Cool as Ice -- 12" -- Factory
(N) Kraftwerk -- Number (live) -- Min-Max (live)
Ony -- Modern Art -- 12" (private press synth pop/post punk from the early 80s found lurking in the massive WMUH record library!)

Notes ---
Just one really. It concerns the late Oscar Brown, Jr.
-- if you don't know about him, PLEASE read here----http://www.oscarbrownjr.com/WebPagesUS/biography.htm . Really incredible man he was. ANd of course, MSN News was late on the game -- as this was just posted hours ago -- but look here too while you are at it ---http://msnbc.msn.com/id/8159421/ . The song I played was a kind of more humourous and tongue-in-cheek song. But if you heard the song from Sin & Soul -- "Bid 'Em In", where it is just him as the voice of an auctioneer auctioning off a young Black woman into the slave trade, it is disturbing, downright horrifying and well... has put me to the brink of tears. This man was TRULY AMAZING! Do yourself a favor, read up on him. And if you can find a copy of Sin & Soul -- do it. It really is a great record.)
