Journeyman's "National Hi-Jinx" is way off the Woob mark - although you might
enjoy Journeyman's "Mama 6" CD on NTone. Can't put my finger on a good
description at the moment as I haven't played it in ages, but it had somewhat of
a similar vibe to "1194" from what I recall. Problem is that it's way long gone
(the second NTone release ever) and I only have a CDR myself. Would love to find
the vinyl if anyone knows of a source (any takers?)
Woob also put out a second CD, I think it was "4495" on Emit. This one didn't
hit me like "1194" did though. From what I recall it was darker, less of a
tribal percussive thing going on. Even some guitars in there as well.
Bottom line: try and find a copy of "Mama 6", nicely toasted on CDR. If you
can't track that down, I can always roll off a tape dub for you. Unless da
Ninjas have a repress in the works - subtle hint, fellas :). Speaking of which,
try and find a copy of the Irresistible Force's rmx. of "Autumn Leaves" by
Coldcut - just rereleased on a ltd. 12". This one is *bliss*, I tell you...Brock

I loved your spot-on description of this one - must go dig it out for a
re-listen. I was *so* into it when I got it. I remember going jogging
in Hermanus - a little spot up the coast we'd gone to for a
weekend's whale watching - and early in the morning seeing two
whales close to the shore while I had this on the headphones -
really a moving experience. It was spiritual, kids!! :-)
I'm sure it is hard to find these days, with em:t gone bust an' all.
On the back of this I bought Journeyman's National Hi-Jinx, which
is totally thoroughly different. Not shit, but just Paul Frankland in a
different guise.
