alan hawkshaw/keith mansfield: beat incidental

Be With Records have raided the KPM archives to reissue another favorite from the KPM 1000 series, Alan Hawkshaw and Keith Mansfield's Beat Incidental, originally released in 1969. Underscore moods and links, contemporary beat music idiom -- Includes some of the most sublime, sub-ten second, tracks you're ever likely to hear, alongside more adequately sized library funk heat. The dream team of Alan Hawkshaw and Keith Mansfield are here at the helm of one of the most legendary of the legendary KPM albums, originally released in 1969. Beat Incidental is psychedelic pop-soul that hits hard thanks to fuzz guitars, growling flutes, deep Hammond grooves, and drum breaks galore: it's basically "drama jazz". As with all of Be With Records' KPM reissues, the audio for Jazzrock comes from the original analog tapes and has been remastered for vinyl by Be With regular Simon Francis. Be With have taken the same care with the sleeves, handing the reproduction duties over to Richard Robinson, the current custodian of KPM's brand identity. And don't worry: those KPM stickers aren't stuck directly on the sleeves! 180 gram vinyl.
