Record collectors, producers and crate diggers like a good creation myth, and Skull Snaps 'self-titled' debut 'had it all. A mysterious funk trio, who recorded one album under a curious name, housed it in a sleeve that looked more like a proto-metal album, and released it through a label (GSF Records) that folded shortly afterwards? Everything pointed towards the Skull Snaps album as a single totemic object, packaged in a way that predicted its own disinterment almost twenty-five years later. For those who sampled it, myth maintenance was advantageous, both for their reputations and for their consciences. Likewise, an unsanctioned +1995 reissue on Charley Records removed the credits from the inner sleeve to further sever the record from its context - or perhaps because the label could not quite face using the names of artists they had no intention of paying. Either way, owning the record was a right of passage, as Amir Abdullah once wrote: If you do not have Skull Snaps in your collection, your collection is weak. "
