The Traffic - Beat it​/​Thriller

by The Traffic

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    FINALLY the brand new POST COVID Traffic funk 45 is here ..
    CR -009!! Like before .. pounding and thrashing about like a Marlin at the end of the fishing line.. :D

    CHOI Records presents The Traffic SPECIAL MJ feature FUNK 45.
    Presented in a special pressing in red vinyl with black splatter!!
    Two blistering hot Michael Jackson tracks from the iconic Thriller Album 1982.

    Side A Beat It
    Side B Thriller

    Side A -Beat It - Well I grew up with this track when I was about 14 and its been in my blood ever since. This got the full Traffic heavy treatment with all guns aaaablazing!!
    The 80s is back with a funk twist that is fast paced and begs you to get to the dance floor and boogie/sweat your A*** off!!

    Side B -Thriller- Spooky and funky and sublime !! The Groove on this is an intertwined web of percussion and drums and guitar peppered with Horns and a fat bass line that wont quit!!! Breakdowns are full of breaks and horn riffs everywhere!! I can visualize people on the dance floor doing the zombie dance from Thriller during this song!!

    **********************NOTE*********************
    Postage has changed quite a lot as you all know by now.
    even one 45 will attract a parcel rate from Australia Post($21-29 depending on country) SO I advise to purchase a bundle or more than one at least for that reason alone. I am sorry its so expensive.
    I thank you all for the unbelievable support since 2015 when we started!!! Please take care out there!!!! Much Love The Traffic x
