"The meeting between The Thing & Cato Salsa Experience started at the Kongsberg Jazz festival in Norway in 2004, when The Thing was offered the chance to invite their favorite rock band Cato Salsa Experience for a special collaboration. The show was a success & this also led to the critically acclaimed EP 'Sounds Like A Sandwich.' It was immediately decided that the Two Bands & A Legend should go into studio to record a full length album. On the album the bands do their own versions of tracks like 'Who The Fuck' by PJ Harvey, 'Baby Talk' by James Blood Ulmer among others. The CD is the perfect pairing of the dirty 60s influenced free-jazz that of The Thing and the raw & minimalistic garage rock of Cato Salsa Experience. Most tracks on this album was recorded in one take only with no overdubs." Liner notes by Thurston Moore.

Label:	SMALLTOWN SUPERJAZZ (NORWAY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	STSJ 130CD

"The Thing & Cato Salsa Experience recorded this EP during the same session that resulted in the self titled album. These tracks didn't fit the album & it was immediately decided to make this into an EP to be released after the album. The EP contains 3 tracks and 30 minutes of music. It starts of with a cover version by Groove Armada's (!) I See You Baby with Joe McPhee on vocals which is worth the price alone! The EP also features a new version of Joe McPhee's seminal Black Panther anthem 'Nation Time' from 1970 as well as Donald Ayler's beautiful epic 'Our Prayer.'"
