Hackney Colliery Band - "Superhero Disco (The Reflex Version)"

Early Christmas present from label Wah Wah 45s as they approach their twentieth anniversary. Hackney Colliery Band are longtime RR faves and it's nice to hear the Reflex version of "Superhero Disco" as part of this mammoth (26 songs!) compilation of nuggets from the UK label remixed, re-worked or otherwise reconsidered. Also featuring tracks from the likes of Henri-Pierre Noel, Dele Sosimi and the Gene Dudley Group among others, this is a nice taste of what the label consistently cooks up, but with a few extra spices thrown in.

Hackney Colliery Band - "Heart-Shaped Box"

I'd never heard of a Sofar Session until the Wah Wah 45s folks shared this video of  the Hackney Colliery Band covering Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box" but scrolling through some of the other stuff on their Youtube I'm definitely marking their London and NYC locations down on my mental map.
