Listen\/Download – Georges Raudi – Stercok MP3<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Greetings all.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The track I bring you today is one of those things that I first encountered back in the old Soulstrut days, and managed to pick up a few years later.<\/p>\n

The track \u2018Stercok\u2019 originated on the soundtrack to a 1970s French TV series about the cat burglar Arsene Lupin (about whom other films had been made, before and after this show).<\/p>\n

The \u2018soundtrack\u2019 as it was, was restricted to two sides of a 45. One side a terrible Jacques Dutronc<\/strong> song, and the other, this very groovy, funky Hammond instrumental.<\/p>\n

Though the cut is credited to Georges Raudi and His Orchestra,<\/strong> it seems the artists name is correctly spelled \u2018Rodi\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Georges Rodi<\/strong> was a keyboardist and composer with a ton of credits as a sideman and several albums under his own name.<\/p>\n

\u2018Stercok\u2019 (I have no idea what the title refers to) starts out with a punchy drum roll, followed by thumping bass, distorted rhythm guitar and lots of atmospheric, Hawkshaw<\/strong>-esque organ work. There are also piano solos (probably Rodi, as well).<\/p>\n

The feel is very much a perfect late 60s\/early 70s discotheque-au-go-go vibe, and I can definitely picture it being used as the background to a swinging scene.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, for a groovy, French-only 45 release, \u2018Stercok\u2019 isn\u2019t terribly expensive or hard to track down, so go get yourself a copy.<\/p>\n

I hope you dig it, and I\u2019ll see you all next week.<\/p>\n

Also, make sure to follow Funky16Corners<\/strong> on Instagram<\/strong><\/a>, Twitter<\/strong><\/a> and Facebook<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
