Bitch Tracks


It seems like back in early 90s New York all the trannies got mic'd up and started spewing filth over a bunch of house records, creating a sub-genre in the process - bitch tracks. It's really hard to find out much about these songs,. And I'm guessing that's because most of the trannies that performed them have long since dissapeared, the only evidence of their existance being a few crumpled dresses and mouldy wigs gathering dust in old men's attics, or Crusaid Charity Shops.



Anyhow here are two of the best. 'Get huh' by The Ride Committee feat. Roxy is the sound of a vicious drag queen bitch fight playing out to the bitter bitter end.

And 'Hateful Head Helen' by Sweet Pussy Pauline is a song about cock. There's a nice interview with Sweet Pussy Pauline(aka Candy J) here, and she sounds like a surprisingly lovely lady.

Miss Honey Miss Honnaaay



Don't you hear me calling you Miss Honey??? I'm beyond excited - I've just received 12inches of Miss Honey, via Discogs. I rescued her from Bradford, a most unlikely setting for this glamourous creation.



Miss Honey was a New York tranny house track put out on Project X records in 1992. Vocals are courtesy of Moi Renee, who died in mysterious circumstances a few years later. I'm so glad she left this with us.
