A great but overlooked bit of crossover funk from Chas Jankel – guitarist for Ian Dury & The Blockheads during the late 70s! The real standout here is the original version of "Ai No Corrida" – a track probably best remembered from Quincy Jones' Dude album, but sounding... read more

An early start for Jocelyn Brown, but even in the mid 70s, she was still a formidable voice in the clubs! This excellent track has kind of a rolling funk feel, with less of the disco sound that was later associated with Jocelyn's later work – and some nice touches like a jangly guitar, hard... read more

A great disco take on the Love Boat theme – one done here withs ome slightly Latiny club touches from Joe Quijano, and fragile vocals that shake a bit more than Jack Jones' on the original recording! There's some nice Miami club moments in the instrumentation – and the compelling thing... read more

A follow-up to the group's massive electro groover "Dirty Talk" – done with the same sort of percolating beats, electro keys, and whispered snakey vocals that really give the subject matter a run for the money! The groove and sound is very similar to the original – and the... read more

A huge crossover hit for the group – but a pretty tasty dancefloor single as well! Deodato's producing track here – and it's got a nicely compressed sound that pops along the bassline and catchy hook wonderfully!... read more

A funky later classic from Kool & The Gang – not as hard and heavy as their early work, but still plenty darn great! And while "Ladies Night" is a well-known hit, there's always great bits on the track that we always fall in love with again – like the tightly compressed... read more

What can we say? Despite the stupid appearance of the band, "White Horse" was a classic breakdance/electro track that crossed over so big it had kids in Kansas running out to by parachute pants and squares of linoleum to play along with the kids in the Bronx. Despite that runaway hit... read more

Jesse Saunders has some fun with an 8-bit sampler and little vocal bits referencing the Amityville Horror film (we think) over this spare, almost electro-sounding early Chicago house cut.... read more

A great little groover on Brunswick – with that kind of choppy club funk feel that you'll also find on some of the label's other obscure 12" singles, like the classic "You Are The One", by AMFM. The track's got a very nice groove – and the hook's enough to keep the track... read more

An offshoot of the 4AD rock scene from the UK, this number sampled Rakim from "Paid In Full" to great effect – and it made quite a bit of sense that the track was issued on 4th & Broadway in the US (probably also a legal move, so that the label wouldn't sue 4AD for copping a... read more

One of those cool RCA 12" singles from the mid 70s – cuts recorded by groups who never made a bigger wave on the label! This is a great Canadian disco cut with a quick-stepping sort of groove – produced by Tony Green at a level that's a nicely lean take on styles that would... read more

Recorded pre "Conga", when Miami Sound Machine were cutting club cuts with less of a Latin groove than their later hits. "Different Kind of Love" is the cut here – as it's got a nice kind of gangster funk feel, with a rolling electric groove.... read more

A monster stormer from Vince Montana! The track "Heavy Vibes" is a great club track from the early 80s – with a hard rolling vibes sound that links Roy Ayers' 70s jazzy work with later programmed vibes-heavy house tracks. The club mix is especially great, and the cut's a real gem... read more

Much funkier than most grooves we'd associate with the Montreal scene of the 70s – and a thinly-veiled disco remake of "Soul Finger", complete with strutting trumpet! The sound here is a lot more club based than the Bar-Kays original hit, and the tune also has chorus vocals –... read more
