Can any one let me know if the vocals on Smith & Mighty feat Tammy Payne's - Same, should have fuzzy vocals or if it's just my pressing. Even if the vocals are supposed to be like this, it is a class track. A downtempo Jungle beat, with Tammy singing a full song over the top. Why is it I had to find this track almost by mistake? I don't know how long it's been out but I havn't seen one review or even a mention of this record before. Especially surprising with the people involved. It's a long shot, as she's mainly a soul singer but does any one know what Tammy's been up to for the last few of years? All I know of her stuff is a couple of 12" out on Talking Loud, which was some time ago. Cheers Chris.

The sound quality on mine is a bit muddy, with a lack of high end - it may be in the production.

The Talking Loud stuff really didn't do it for me, but I really like her EP on Cup of Tea - sort of smoky lounge jazz.

---No, the vocals should be crystal clear, it's unfortunately likely that your pressing is defective.Strange though the syncronicty of your posting as this track was the very first thing I put on this morning. I listened to it about 5 times in a row, it's extremely passionate and addicting; I eventually had to put it on a mixtape and send it off to a friend.

---Absolutely true!!!

---I don't know about this particular single, why it's been so low-key but the B-Side is from the acclaimed Smith & Mighty full length "Bass Is Maternal". Also the label this came out on, More Rockers, doesn't have the best distribution Stateside and they normally print in small quantities, consider yourself lucky. Smith And Mighty have a mellow work ethic so they're not always on-time with their releases or hyping the hell out of them. They recently collaborated with producer The Angel to issue an excellent drum n' bass single called Jaz Klash, a Jaz Klash album will be out soon.

--She also did a marginally good 12" about 3 months back for Bristolian label Cup Of Tea.

---Recent titles to check on the "Same" vibe: anything by Mandalay, Lacelles "Rock Oil" LP/CD (Orange Egg UK), Mighty Bop "Zen/Zazzie" 12" (Yellow-FR). Also I imagine a spate of postings once the Lamb and Sneaker Pimps albums hit the US domestically. They are both two of the finest abstrakt beat vocal projects since Portishead. Peace.
