Flower Travellin' Band - "Black Sabbath" (1970)

Thanks for listening, folks. Facts that may be of interest: Et Sans is a side-project of various members of Fly Pan Am and Godspeed!, and that track is actually a heavily disguised Faust cover. Gai/Jin is Hrvatski and his college roommate covering Aphex Twin as a gtr/breaks duo. The Juice Crew All-Stars on that track are Marley Marl, Masta Ace, Craig G, Kool G Rap, and Big Daddy Kane. those Tod Dockstader tracks are from a library music record he put out in '79. Tusken Raiders = µ-Ziq. Astrobotnia = Ovuca, plus (maybe) Aphex Twin. We didn't get to hear the whole Flower Travellin' Band song, as the BBC came on at 3... so I'll start with that one next week.
