Oh I wish I could get back to Glasgow for this
Victory Horns
Jacob's Pillow
Victory Horns is in my top five On-U Sound productions. Simply everything about it is sublime and as I've said before just play it as LOUD as you can and luxuriate in Adrian Sherwood's production...and here's Inside Out that Jesse wrote and Odyssey had a massive hit with. This is with Doug and Skip soundchecking live back in 2006
From Compression

...and the foot of this post tells the tale of where my old PE teacher and Jesse made me nearly have a heart attack

When famous American sharpshooter Annie Oakley visited Glasgow with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, in 1891, she had a special, tartan outfit made, and was photographed wearing it, at the Watson & Wilson Studios, in Jamaica Street. pic.twitter.com/dgJxakdgWq
