Errol Dunkley: Black Cinderella 7"
"Black Cinderella" is the tune of Errol Dunkley's career (and he's got a heap if you go looking), a melancholy number that's been versioned a hundred times, but never sounded as good as the mind melter here. It's not the kind of track that's gonna stick on your wall immediately, and not necessarily one for the dance either, but there is something truly timeless and beautiful about the submarine sadness here. The rhythm is like your face on a slow cheese grater while Erroll drives spikes into your ears with his sharp pleading. Ah, pleasure.
