Hope everyone had a great Record Store Day! If you missed out on grabbing our reissue of Yusef Lateef's Detroit Latitude 42 30 Longitude 83, don't fear! Our friends at @RoughTrade have a few copies left. https://t.co/TbHooQMJsu
For all the sample hunters out there, the track Eastern Market from Yusef Lateef’s Detroit Latitude 42 30 Longitude 83 was flipped by the great MF Doom on the track Who Do You Think I Am, from his 1999 debut album Operation: Doomsday https://t.co/QkqEPzuL5T
Thank you @theartsdesk for selecting our reissue of Yusef Lateef’s classic Detroit Latitude 42 30 Longitude 83 for their top #recordstoreday23 picks, "a treat of an album, warm and immediate, also often ready for the dancefloor".
Now, this really is something. Re-issued on @gillespeterson@records_arc is this 1969 gem by #yuseflateef. How this isn't recognised as an all-time classic is unfathomable. You can read my write-up for @louderthanwar right here: https://t.co/jPFVOqrBqB via @louderthanwar
If you want to dig deeper, check out this great 2005 Wax Poetics interview with Yusef Lateef. He discusses the history behind some of the tracks on the record: https://t.co/kNcapXo4AR
