Josh Davis, when not busy recording under his DJ Shadow alias, is a blackbelt record enthusiast and accumulator of sui generis recordings. Co-curated by Dante Carfagna, another vaunted compiler of records and record histories, the Cali-Tex label brought Pieces of Peace finally to vinyl and handled an LP’s worth of J.C. Davis recordings. Offered via Numero are Mickey and the Soul Generation (Shadow’s “favorite funk band”) and the black psych of Stone Coal White.
