Fab 5 Freddy & Blondie – Yuletown Throw Down
Flexipop – FLEXIPOP 15 * Flexi-disc * 7″ * 33⅓rpm * UK * 1981
Merry Christmas everyone! This is a giveaway flexi disc that was attached to a short lived UK music magazine in 1981. This Flexipop magazine was run by some ex Music Mirror folks and held one of such flexidiscs with exclusive tracks (as by The Jam, XTC or Motorhead for instance) in each issue. There seem to be vinyl test pressings that are quite rare & sought after, although the quality of the flexidisc ain’t too bad at all. The artists credit says “Blondie And Freddiy”

II first heard that track when Keb Darge came over to my clubnight in Munich the 2nd or 3rd time, this tune was introduced to a wider audience on his and Josh Dj Shadow Davis‘ BBE compilation “Funk Spectrum” in 1998.
