Several years ago my wife (then girl friend) and I were in D.C. hitting up the sites with a friend who was living there at the time. Lia’s friend took me to this tiny record shop in Alexandria so I could nerd out on music. I was digging around and in the Talking Heads section and found this elusive single.
I am from Lawrence KS and we have a super dope record shop called The Love Garden so I thought nothing of asking the guy running the shop “What the fuck is this???”.
His response is one of those classic record shop moments that make me buy my music online. “YOU don’t know this?!?!?! How can you say you like Talking Heads and not have heard this! You HAVE to check it out!”.
He put the record on right beneath a sign that literally read “DON’T EVEN ASK TO LISTEN TO THIS”.
Damn, that shit was funky. So naturally i agreed and said I’d take it. The dude told me that he decided it wasn’t for sale and he had a friend that would probably appreciate it more than me!
Took me 2 years to track that mess down! So, to insure this doesn’t happen to you I give you, Slippery People – as preformed by The Staple Singers.
