Worldwide Shipping Red Snapper Reeled And Skinned (30th Anniversary Edition) Warp vinyl record

Some 30 years have now passed since Warp Records decided to repackage and reissue Red Snapper’s first three EPs on one handy collection, the efflortlessly excellent Reeled & Skinned. Effectively the duo’s introduction to a wider audience, it did a great job in showcasing their trademark sound – an enticing blend of loose-limbed live drums, double bass, intoxicating electronics and snaking sax sounds. As this anniversary vinyl reissue proves, it’s a musical blend that still sounds fresh all these years on. The plentiful highlights include moody theme ‘Snapper’ (featuring Beth Orton), lightly Latin-tinged punk-funk workout ‘Swank’, the riotous and aggressive ‘Wesley Don’t Surf’ and Sabres of Paradise’s incredible rework of ‘Hot Flush’ – a jazzy, breakbeat-driven slab of dancefloor deepness that ranks among Andrew Weatherall and company’s finest remixes.
