Loopzilla is from the same species as Atomic Dog – both of them funky enough animals, with post Parliament/Funkadelic P-Funk groove! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
Nice, slow pre-Chronic production by Dr. Dre. The noisy mix includes added samples in the Bomb Squad style. Somethingtabumpinyacar is an instrumental version with a short monologue by DOC. Portrait of A Masterpiece is an uptempo lp cut. (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record
The a-side hardly needs any introduction from us, an uplifting disco cut, with soaring, string-laden Gamble & Huff production, and the sort of mainstream appeal that's kept it in constant roatation for years and years!

An obscure bit of disco from Chicago – recorded by singer Jerline Shelton with arrangements by Floyd Morris and production by DJ Lucky Cordell!

"Gold Digger" is another great single from Kanye West – with a minimalist funky clappin' beat track and a Ray Charles sample – plus an appearance by Ray-incarnate Jamie Foxx. The subject matter couldn't be more tired, but Kanye's vocal approach is still fresh, and the ... (Hip Hop) read more12-inch, Vinyl record

The a-side to this single is a solid club slammer from Jackie Moore – way different than her earlier southern soul work, and done here with a sweet Philly groove from producer Bobby Eli!

"Thief's Theme" is the first single from the Street Disciple double album, one that's actually a hidden track on the LP. We never would have guessed that a sample of the riff "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" would sound so good, but here it is! (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record
Two excellent Philly dance floor numbers off the Family Reunion LP, with "I Love Music" getting the pumped up Tom Moulton treatment for this single! (Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record
