Brilliant stuff – and one of the greatest P&P singles ever! Marta Acuna's "Dance Dance Dance" is one of those tracks that we never tire of – a sublime blend of Latin rhythms, warm disco vocals, and that great spacey P&P approach to production! Sweet female vocals ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Salsoul, 1982. Very Good+ ... $6.99
A classic cut from Aurra – the title track to the album of the same name, and a nice bit of bass for the dancefloor! The tune slows the groove a bit from other Aurra tracks, but more than makes up for that with some really catchy vocals! "In My Arms" is mellower – more of a ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
(White label promo.)
Polydor, 1977. Very Good- (pic cover)... $11.99
Doobie-doo doobie-doo! One of the catchiest Roy Ayers dancefloor tracks ever – a bassy bumping thumper that wonderfully skirts the line between clubby and funky! The track's got female vocals singing along with the hook – all in a mode that's quite similar to the most uptempo work by ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Erykah Badu —
On & On [dance mix] (voc, long version, long inst)/Universal, 1997. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
A great little tune from Erykah Badu – smooth, mellow, with a nice downtempo vibe, but still a warm finish that works perfectly with her voice! This is the kind of tune that made us all fall in love with her right away – and which still sounds great years later. (Neo Soul, Soul) 12-inch, Vinyl record

Next Plateau, 1985. Very Good+ ... $5.99
A wonderful disco groover, reissued by Next Plateau in the 80s, but originally recorded for Motown n 1977 by Carl Bean, who we think never got a chance to issue a full album for the label! The real strength of the cut lies with Norman Harris – who produced the cut with a warm bubbling Philly ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Velocity, 1992. Very Good+ ... $24.99
Not the Black Ice you might know as a funk group from the 70s – but a killer deep house outfit from Chicago – part of that great second wave of Windy City house music that was much richer than the first! Black Ice seem to re-borrow club elements that the New York scene was using during ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Grand Groove, Mid 80s. Very Good ... $0.99
A nice nice bit of 80s groove! Patrick Adams handled the mix, and the cut's got a bit of an electro feel, mixed with some stronger than usual vocals for a club cut like this. Nice hook, and some good 80s keyboards and drum machine beats! 12-inch, Vinyl record
(White label promo.)
BC, Late 70s/Early 80s. Near Mint- ... $9.99
Another nice track from Began Cekic, with a helping hand from Tee Scott. The groove's popping early 80s sound has a crisp midtempo almost roller skating vibe. 12-inch, Vinyl record
(White label promo in a BC sleeve.)
Cree (Germany), Late 80s. New Copy ... $18.99 24.99
Great grooves from Brother Reistance – tracks that are aimed at the dancefloor, but which also have a strong social message too! "Tonite Is De Night" is a cool call to action, set to a rhythm with tight tropical touches – and "Crucial Decision" is presented here in ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
A&M, 1976/1977. Near Mint- (pic cover)... $9.99
Completely sublime! Shuggie Otis first wrote and recorded "Strawberry Letter 23", but it took The Brothers Johnson, and some smooth Quincy Jones production to make it a hit! The track loses none of it's original trippy soul in this version – and if anything, the better vocals ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

TTED, 1984. Near Mint- ... $3.99
At this point, Chuck and the group have moved firmly into DC Go-Go territory – but they still did that pretty darn well, and their years as a funk group make this one kick a bit more than other singles from the time. 12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a TTED sleeve.)
Polydor, 1979. Very Good ... $2.99
Uptempo funky James from the end of the 70s – aimed at the discos, but with that funky sound of earlier days still pretty much in place! In other words, there's plenty of funky instrumentation in the cuts – a bit faster than in earlier years, but still quite nice – plus ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Believe In A Dream, 1982. Near Mint- ... $4.99
Tyrone's listed as "Tystick" on the label to this one – and for good reason, as there's a heck of a lot of stick-stick-sticky bass work on the cut, in Tyrone's classic 80s groove mode! 12-inch, Vinyl record
(Label has some marker.)
Mercury, 1976. Near Mint- ... $38.99

Cultures Of Soul, Early 80s. New Copy (reissue)... $7.99 12.98
A slow-grooving boogie number from Junior Byron – one that's got a catchy sort of back/forth rhythm, which Junior uses to nice advantage with his swinging vocals on the tune! The version brings up the riffing guitar in the rhythms, in a way that's even cooler than the original mix – ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

AVI/Past Due, 1979. New Copy ... $13.99
A great little groove from Captain Sky – a cut that steps along nicely with a sweet disco glide! There's some bubbling moogy bits underneath the vocals – and the Captain himself comes across like a smooth soul singer throughout – quite possibly the best side of his talents on wax! ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Mercury, 1981. Very Good+ ... $14.99
THE standout cut from Central Line – a track so big that it got the group noticed over here on our side of the Atlantic, and forever gave them a place in the hallowed halls of 80s groove! The tune chugs along at a great roller skating rhythm – with some spare use of keyboards that ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Atlantic, 1979. Very Good+ ... $6.99
One of the blueprints of hip hop! At the time, Chic's "Good Times" just seemed like a wickedly funky pop tune – but who knew that that bass and guitar groove would inspire a whole generation of hip hoppers, bouncing along in a groove that was at once at home on the roller rink or ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

We've never been sure if Johnny Chingas ever cut a record for Columbia, because we've only known this one on 12" single version, but the cut's strong enough that we'd love to find one if it's out there. A very nice mellow soul groove, with some touches of 80's production, and a sweet soul ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

Westbound/Elektra, 1983. Very Good ... $1.99
A killer cut! The Clark Sisters were mostly a gospel-oriented group, but they cut this amazing groover during the early 80s, and it's got a semi-secular sound that launched them into the mainstream soul world for a while. The cut's got a great stepping groove, a very catchy hook in the chorus, ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
(In a Westbound sleeve.)
Curtom, 1978. Very Good ... $1.99
The height of the disco years at Curtom, and quite possibly Linda Clifford's biggest single – if not her best. The tune's an overblown remake of the old showtune from Sweet Charity – done with very full arrangements, and running for quite some time. "Gypsy Lady" is almost a ... read more 12-inch, Vinyl record

One of Bootsy's best tracks from the old days – served up here on a promo 12" single that was issued at the time of the Warner Archives CD release for The Best Of Bootsy. The remix is better than you'd expect, too – and really keeps the original flavor of the song! 12-inch, Vinyl record

A&M, 1986. Very Good+ (pic cover)... $11.99
An 80s effort from Willie Colon, but still great, is a wild Latin club number – with some nice conga-laden grooves pulsing under the heavy keys and some tasty jazzy touches spicing things up! 12-inch, Vinyl record
