More dusty-fingered funk and reissue fun from DJ Fryer’s prolific Athens of the North imprint. As usual, these tracks are pretty darn obscure; they both dropped on the Split Decision Band’s 1978 debut on the obscure Network Records imprint. “Watchin’ Out” is a tight-but-loose chunk of hazy disco-era funk with a sturdy backbeat and particularly rousing horns. It will slip into both funk and disco sets with ease. Flipside “Dazed” is altogether slower, with sparser production emphasizing the quality of the parping, razor-sharp horns. It’s a superb alternative to the equally admirable A-side. Another winner from Athens of the North
