Here's another edition of this great monthly 7" series of Konishi Yasuharu's all-time DJ classics. This is the 7th installment of "Readymade mirai no ongaku" (aka "Readymade Oldays"). (Find all details in the first post.)
The A side is a ska cover of Mongo Santamaria's "Fat Back" that was released on Byron Lee and the Dragonaires' "Dance The Ska" album (1964), while the AA side is a cover of Tony Hatch's "Call Me" (first sung by Petula Clark) as heard on The Foundations' album "From the Foundations" (1967). The first song is available on 7" for the first time, and while the other was once released part of a 4-song EP from Portugal the sound was said to be bad, making it worth to appear in this series.
