Snatch and the Poontangs is an album of sexually oriented blues songs released in 1969. The album features bandleader Johnny Otis on piano and drums, his son guitar player Shuggie Otis and vocalist Delmar "Mighty Mouth" Evans as The Hawk, Prince Wunnerful, and The Mouth, respectively.
More than half the songs on the album are based on well-known African-American folklore.
Now to track down the whole album.
Please check back for the DJ mix in the next few days. It clocks in at just over an hour.

Based in Johannesburg, Tandy appeared in South Africa's first beat film, Africa Shakes,[1] and moved to England in 1964 at the suggestion of Frank Fenter, UK head of Atlantic Records, whom she later married. She released several singles between 1965 and 1969, and although none was a hit, she appeared on several contemporary television programmes, such as Beat Club. She has been described by Richie Unterberger as "blue-eyed soul singer rather in the mold of Dusty Springfield, both in terms of her voice and her versatility, blending various shades of soul, British pop, and even some tinges of mod-psychedelia."[2] Her voice has also been compared to those of Julie Driscoll and Christine Perfect.[3]
In 1966 she recorded tracks at Stax Records' McLemore Avenue studios, backed by Booker T. & the M.G.'s and Isaac Hayes,[4] and was an opening act on the 1967 Stax/Volt Tour of Europe. That year she also teamed up with another of Fenter's bands, Les Fleur de Lys and recorded several singles for the Atlantic label and a session for John Peel's "Top Gear".[5] She recorded a single for Polydor in 1967 credited to "Debrah Aire" featuring more pop styled tracks, but this also flopped. However, the combination of lack of commercial success and the breakdown of her relationship with Fenter led to her return to South Africa in 1970.[6]
As half of various duets, Tandy scored three South African Top Ten hits between 1972 and 1978. However, little success followed these recordings. In 1989, she appeared in the South African boxing film Brutal Glory as a singer.[7]
Nostalgic interest resulted in a return to the UK in 2004, when she played a gig at London's 100 Club; a reviewer commented
"the band struck up with a couple of driving soul numbers and were then joined by the diminutive Tandy to a rapturous reception. The smile on Sharon's face could have lit up a small town and did not once dim throughout the show... Sharon simply radiated enjoyment, absolutely loving the opportunity to be singing again."[8]
