George Baker Selection - Little Green Bag b/w Pretty Little Dreamer, Little Green Bag, 1969, Negram Productions, Legacy Music Inc., Colossus Records
Yes! Yes! Yes! The story goes like this: One weekend, I bargained $30 worth of vinyl, so, my guy said that I get three free “throw-aways” of his. Honestly, I picked this piece up because of the title alone, Little Green Bag. How could I not pick it up?! Look at that label! COLOSSUS! Had no idea what it was. When I got back to the lab, I threw it on the table, and as soon as the bass struck and the toms rang out, mine mind went into Reservoir mode! Ready for whatever! I remember thinking, ‘where the fcuk did that come from?!’
Every time a deep cut like this comes into my possession, I feel blessed.
Thank You Quentin Tarantino for the heads-up!
Factoid: The original title was actually “Little Green Back,” as in money. However, the label misprinted it, and “Little Green Bag” has since resonated in the realms of our tiny existence. Listen closely and you’ll here George sing:
Lookin’ back on the track for a little green back,
Got to find just the kind or I’m losin’ my mind.
