IN HAND AND SHIPPING NOW. SEALED 1ST PRESSING.

VERY LIMITED (250 PRESSED) LP FROM FUNK NIGHT. UNPLAYED AND SEALED.


Very limited edition 1st press black vinyl version of the Saint Tropez Orchestra album, cut at Timmion and released by our friends from Detroit, Funk Night Records.
You may know that Funk Night released two 45s by Inner Space Quartet and a solo 45 by Brother Lee last year, but this is the first time we've teamed up with them for an LP release. And they really did a superb job with this album.
The album was never originally meant to see a vinyl release, as it had been commissioned by a library music company, so it would have remained digital-only if Funk Night hadn't stepped up. We love them!
Excellent French library music / soundtracks album from Saint Tropez Orchestra.
Originally commissioned by a well-known British library music company, Dime is lucky to have the license to press a very limited number of CDs, with the vinyl option now being licensed to our friends Funk Night Records in Detroit, USA, We now have limited stock of the first pressing of the vinyl LPs and will to make them available soon.
Recorded at Studio Des Fontaines in just 25 hours and using the very Hammond organ owned by a former member of one of the house bands at the Zoom Zoom nightclub in Saint Tropez (which almost certainly would have been used onstage for such icons as Brigitte Bardot, Michel Polnareff, Jacques Dutronc, Serge Gainsbourg, Jane Birkin, etc) this album is all killer, no filler.
Inspired by the classic library music sounds of 1968-75 (think The Mohawks, or even Booker T & The MG's on acid) this is the kind of collection that crate diggers, rare library fiends, and psychedelic funk fans dream of finding in some dusty old store somewhere for a dollar!
The album itself is stuffed with the kind of heavy drum-and-percussion breaks that b-boys and girls go nuts for, and the sort of sample source material that producers are constantly searching for.
