I tried the Hip Drop, and I like it....



I'm thinking it's been a good long while since anyone's dropped the needle on this bomb, that is, blog-wise. Probably since Eddie Bo died in March of 2009.

This is the only one of the three Explosions 45's that mere mortals are allowed to own. I know it's hard to believe, but I have yet to reach angelic status.

Maybe someday I'll be worthy of a copy of "Garden of Four Trees", but at this point it eludes me even though I-want-it, I-need it, I-must-have-it. I swear, every night I pray for a copy.

A very nice M- copy of "Jockey Ride" was offered to me quite some time ago [a guy in Europe had a stash of them], but the price tag was $400. In other words, totally out of the question for a poverty stricken grad student. Actually, there's no way could I afford it even now. One does occasionally have to be realistic, even though reality sucks.

Anyway, enjoy ya'll....this is one jam that should always be available.
