Celia Mancini – The Celia Mancini Tapes (Vinyl)

TheCeliaMancini Tapesisa compilation of recordings by sadly departedKing LosermemberCeliaMancini,collecting together rarities from throughout the legendary artist’s life. The twelve tunes recorded between 1988 and 1998 are absolutely crucial slices of kick-ass garage rock and psychedelia sourced direct from the original crumbling four-track cassette tapes. Project co-ordinatorGlen Brewerstates of the collection,“Given the lo-fi nature of the music, the vinyl LP format is the ideal home to commemorate and celebrate her life and creative times, just as she would have wanted, and had often spoken to me about doing herself.

In early January 2017, I helpedCeliato collect the tapes from random storage locations that she had stashed them in decades previously, including dusty closets, car-boots, crumbling boxes etc, and then by mid-2017, around 200 of the cassettes had been digitised. –Glen Brewer / Leap Decade Records
