Spanish language Latin disco covers of Ben E King, McFadden & Whitehead and Chic?? Buy everything you can by this band and spin them like it’s still 1976.

More digging around last night. One thing I have to say about having all my records all over the place is you really never know what you will turn up. I think if everything was neat and ordered A-B-C it wouldn’t be so much fun.
Killer grooves from Hilton-Brown and backing band Assagai from […]

Traditionally we are a dance band with that higher degree…especially my little addition - which I hold so dear to my heart. My satisfaction would be that those three minutes, that they will dance that number, they will forget about all existing conditions to them at that moment – which they do. And they just […]

So I’m wading through 100s of A-sides, B-sides, C-sides and D-sides to put together this mix of some of the best records that I brought back from Japan; and I thought I’d share some of the close but not quite, as well as the down right nasty on the blog.

Managed to track down an original of this LP while out in Japan after first hearing this track years ago on Strange Games and Things.
Think Blackbyrds, Side Effect, early Kool & The Gang. It was their one and only album and although this track is great there are a few other killers on there.
