Free Your Mind [LP]

Record Player - Free Your Mind [LP]

Unreleased Disco And Boogie From Dayton, Ohio's Record Player. Their Full Album, Collating Both Sides Of Their Rare 45 With More Killer Music Recorded In The Late '70s, Unreleased Until Now. Contains Oversized Booklet With Notes By Historian Bret Sjerven, Detailing The Record Player's Story And The History Of The Ohio Soul Music Scene That Allowed For Their Rise. In 1979, Record Player privately pressed and issued a solitary 45 on their Gem City Records imprint in Dayton, Ohio. Though they had recorded a host of other songs, and were on the verge of signing to a major label, their trajectory stalled and the band splintered by the early 1980s. In the early 2000s, Record Player principle Charles Jackson surfaced with their unreleased songs. Todate, only two Record Player songs have been reissued, as part of Now-Again's long-running Soul Cal series. Now, the entirety of their oeuvre is presented here as Free Your Mind, and their story detailed in words by Bret Sjerven. This is a special release for us at Now-Again, and will be perfect for any fan of the deep disco scene that birthed the likes of Luther Davis, Edge of Daybreak, Tomorrow's People, Split Decision Band, and so many others issued by us, Numero Group, and other like minded labels.
