'The Stunt Man' by The Headhunters (Exclusive Translucent Sky Blue Vinyl)
We're thrilled to announce our next record for the Vinyl Club is 'The Stunt Man', the latest release by the legendary funk group The Headhunters. The 180g vinyl LP includes a limited-edition translucent sky blue vinyl at a special discount, available only to members of Color Red Vinyl Club.
Recorded at the legendary Hyde Street Studios in the Tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco in August 2023, The Stunt Man features seven songs spanning the genre-bending repertoire of the 50 year old ensemble co-led by original members Bill Summers on percussion and Mike Clark on drums.
The original and unique musical partnership between Summer and Clark who recorded on Herbie Hancock’s seminal albums Head Hunters, Thrust, Flood and Man Child before embarking on a blockbuster five decade career has stood the test of time and has honed a quintet of epic proportions featuring Donald Harrison on sax, Kyle Roussel on keys and Chris Severin on bass who collectively wrote, produced and recorded the seven track album.
'Porter's Pocket' by George Porter Jr. & Runnin' Pardners ("Green Grenade" Color Vinyl)
Prolific New Orleans bassist George Porter Jr., will be releasing a brand new instrumental album entitled Porter’s Pocket with his longstanding quartet the Runnin’ Pardners. Porter Jr is joined by his longtime collaborator keyboardist Michael Lemmler (Jubilation, TriFunctA), drummer Terrence Houston (The Funky Meters, Toubab Krewe), and newest member Chris Adkins (Raphael Saadiq, Mark Broussard) on guitar.
An innovator of funky music, Porter gives credit to his hometown, “Before there was ‘funk’ as people call it, New Orleans musicians always had a way of using rhythm in a way nobody else was. I am just a student of Earl King and George French and that musical school and somewhere along the way, people out there decided it was ‘funk.’
