When I told you a few weeks ago we’d be posting some of the early SUN CITY GIRLS vinyl, that was before I knew about this great new CD that the band just put out called “You’re Never Alone With A Cigarette: Sun City Girls Singles Volume 1”. It contains some of those early 45s, plus tracks you & I have never heard before. It even contains both tracks from a 1990 single that came out on Majora also called “You’re Never Alone With A Cigarette”: “100 Pounds of Black Olives / The Fine-Tuned Machines of Lemuria”.This is the SCG treading along their more mystical and Eastern edge, with some throbbing, low-fidelity bass muscle leading the way down the rabbit hole. I don’t know why it rocks me, but it totally does. Here’s the original 45 digitized from my collection – now get out there and get the rest of the sessions if ya can.

thanks for this. It just made my evening so much more interesting than it was. Great sounds
Christ, I'm glad I found your blog, though I can't right now remember how... I have this single on vinyl too - and not many singles survived the Purges. I used to have a full vinyl album of theirs with a cover of a Fugs song... I weep now for what I sold when times were tough... They knew.
I always played this on 33!!! I've never heard these songs so fast before. duh!
