postcard from brilliant orange.

great great great funky soul from texas circa late sixties~mid seventies. iron leg is pvre fyre. get both parts.

one  /  two

lamp of the south.

another gem from the vaults of numero as part of their local customs series. this one is near & dear to my heart since i've been feeling real heartsick for the beautiful vistas & warm weather of texas. probably my favorite compilation from them, this makes me think of smoking unfiltered pall malls & drinking sweet tea & whiskey on friend's porches on warm summer nights. essential.

tim cohen has the right idea.

because not everything has to be obscure or underground or kvlt or ripped from some record that was only pressed in an imaginary country. american analog set are my favorite band from texas, & one of my all time summer go to bands fershure. i feel like this album gets overshadowed by know by heart & set free, but fool around should be on everyone's summer mixtapes. put this on & get lost forever.
