in the late 60s early 70s many american soldiers where stationed all over germany. among those where musicians who played in several army bands like the east of underground who recorded a now sought after album after they had won the special services entertainment showband contest held in frankfurt in 1971. nobody knows which other bands participated in this contest, maybe also the soul explosion which were stationed in augsburg, upper bavaria. around the same time, a man named charles held opened a club in augsburg town called tarantel. furthermore he was running a record label of the same name on which he released a handful of 7inch singles from different, local bands, mainly not funky at all though. the soul explosions release remains the only one in the field of american soul & funk music. the band recorded a fantabulous double sider, one deep funk side with a soulful ballad on the flip which makes both hardcore funk and soul collectors happy. unfortunately there is no more information available about the band, only that they even performed live at the tarantel club.

the first part of another golf channel double header from the insanely prolific and scarily on form combination of dean meredith & ben shenton. a side *c.e.r.e.m.o.n.y.* has been dubbed the barnyard stomp by split secs / sonns travis kirschbaum (aka tk disco) - 11 minutes of bluesy peyote riot that features derek holt of 70s black country legends the climax blues band. b side *hiding from my shadow* is ripe with the funk too, but takes us away from the fertile stench of the psychedelic session in the barn and instead channels minneapolis via stafford as p-funk squiggles give way to mr. meredith’s trademark chugging bass. metal and technology vs mother earth in an elemental battle - both sides win! golf channel every time !
