Alan Hawkshaw / Keith Mansfield - Beat Incidental LP

RELEASES ON THE 22/1/27

This includes some of the most sublime sub-ten-second tracks you’re ever likely to hear, alongside more traditionally lengthed library funk heat. The dream team of Alan Hawkshaw and Keith Mansfield are at the helm of one of the most 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 our KPM reissues, the audio for "Beat Incidental" comes from the original analogue tapes and has been remastered for vinyl by Be With regular Simon Francis. We’ve taken the same care with the sleeves, handing reproduction duties over to Richard Robinson, the current custodian of KPM’s brand identity.

About this product: this reissue is pressed on 180g black vinyl.
