Description
Catch this blistering funk rarity from 1971 – Do not sleep!
Clarence Reid should need no intro, but for the uninitiated he’s one of the voices and creative forces behind numerous Miami funk and soul sides from the 1960s onwards. Known for his deep, soulful, rough and ready style and bugged out take on things (see Blowfly for example…. but be careful!) Reid recorded 100s of sides during his illustrious career. This particular record, originally released in 1971 on Henry Stones mighty Alston Records serves us up some red hot raucous funk. One side for the ladies, one side for the dudes! This one has long been a favourite of serious diggers and DJs hunting for breakbeats, and one spin of this 45 will tell you why, this one has it all.
Unmissable, rare as hen’s teeth and now freshly restored and repressed for your 7″ box! Clarence Reid’s “Miss Hot Stuff / Mr. Hot Stuff”, available again in repress form for the first time in over a decade. Fully licensed and agreed by Henry Stone Music / TK Disco and boasting some fresh new artwork for 2024.
