sounds like AC stole half of the ideas from here to Sung Tongs.the other half is what makes Exuma a better record imo

damn that sounds awesome. my friend and i found Snake while high out of our minds at like 3 am in a radio stations music library and listened to it like twelve times over and over again laughing hysterically, good times
the foldout is pretty wild, too
love his voice too and the Captain Beefheart voice tone

First song off the first album is a jam! The whole first album is getting more rewarding with each listen. Vocals are sort of Beefheart/Richie HavensSome parts do have sort of an island mystic/voodoo trance vibe.Not yet sure the whole album will stick with me, am enjoying letting it sink in for now.

Never saw this thread! Speaking of Siano, I wrote about his comp Nicky Siano's Legendary the Gallery: New York's Original Disco 1973-1977(a Soul Jazz import) incl. my first Exuma experience (though I'd to see him in collectors' mail order catalogues from the 80s on):
Spinning out of this disc, the Gallery is mercury still rising, throughcrosstown funk, soul, roots rock, and one gospel song, personalized:Gloria Spencer proclaims,"I got it! I don't understand it! I got it!" A jet blasts (like, "Amen!") outof Exuma's "Obeah Man."

Also, I'd totally forgotten the aformentioned Siano's Gallery thread, despite my posts on there, and now I recall this, by Andy Beta (who also wrote all-time about hanging w Fahey and a JF-made mixtape that only surfaced a few years ago, way after Andy's Voice piece):
the only sign of mixing (a/k/a Siano's 3rd turntable) is at the end of Exuma, where he has a jet sound whoosh come in.― Beta (abeta)
