Ya actually REALLY own all of these recs on OG issue? Wow...YDM!!
M Rez
"Music" - "Montreal Sound" (Smash Disco)
Other big tunes this weekend were
"Law and Order" - Love Committee (Gold Mine)
"War" - The Jam (Polydor)
"Jingo" - Candido (Salsoul)
"I Got My Mind Made Up" - Instant Funk (Rams Horn)
I knew someone would ask that question! Thought about it after posting..
I own some of those records and those I dont have in OGs, I have in re-issues. Better than nothing!
but I have mostly rare and obscure records thats not "known" or should I say "hyped up (on eBay)"?..
One track that's been blowing my mind lately is Chocolat's - Disco Roots (Disco Remix). Shit is slamming.
DJ Ferrari
seriously? I find that song really cheesy - but the people liked it? Maybe I need to re-listen...
It leans toward the cheese but dropped at the right time it's a wicked catchy disco stomper.
yes
mainly "Waterbed" and "Corazon"
leo's sunship-we need eachother lp
alicia meyers-i wanna thank you

but the main saturday night cut for me these past months, even tho it's house, has been
Black Rascals[/b] - So In Love
if you ever see Joubert Singers "stand on the word" 12" pick that up pronto! super hard to find...even though it's on Next Plateau.
aslo NYCC "express yourself" and "keep a light in my window"
I have it on 45. I'd love it if the vocals weren't too xian. Does the 12" have an instrumental by any chance? The 45 has the acapella on the flip.

wow...you have the original. what label is it on? is it credited to the joubert singers? does it mention walter gibbons on it?
dude, the 12" is ill...it's a tony humphries mix...has instrumental and a couple different versions...all extended...6 minutes at least. and i'm pretty sure it's remixed...the vocals sound great...especially the "we don't know how we don't know where" dude.
it's easiest to track down on the louie vega choice comp that came out last year.
i own the record, and im still trying to figure out what it is
any info on this would be appreciated.
im feeling:
bunny mack/ let me love you 12"
jo bisso/ dance to it pt1 and 2 45'
harden brothers/ deep inside you 45" whoaa...
carl davis and the chi town orch/ windy city theme 45" version !
unlimited touch/ search to find the one 12"
lotti g/ what its worth 12" inst
c brand/ wired for games 12"taana gardner/ no frills 12"
bliss/ stomp 45 oooh!!!
cat claw/ golden rule 12"
the willow band/ willow man 12"
jay w. mcgee/ turn me on 12"
air power/ be yourself 12"
executive sweet/ when it comes to loving me 12"
blue velvets/ summertime lp
side on/ magic 12" inst
james mason/ i want your love 12"
carl davis/heart be still 12" killer!
mary clark/ take me im yours 12"
norman connors/ once ive been there 12"
the emotions/ turn it out
man...this can go on allllll day
I've had this, too, for a long time...and it still kills me every time.
going rate for that is waaaaaaaay overpriced.
Something cheap like Make Me Over - The Escorts pee pees all over it IMO.
of course not much listed in here is straight-up disco...more disco-era soul/funk or disco reggae.
That track is sick. Been looking for that 12" forever...
It's a pic sleeve, Joubert Singers - Stand on the Word - Next Records 1985. No Walter Gibbons mention. I'll take a pic later.
