from the 12” single, Cheri Records, 1976After falling in love with house music I set about trying to figure out & find all the original disco 12”s that served as the base of sampling from which so many top tunes were cut, a pursuit I am still very much engaged in, particularly since the infernet has made it considerably cheaper to do so. Original copies of this peppy disco-soul number still trade hands for over $200 in collector’s circles, so previous to our little party on the net it was one of those tracks that remained far better known to us modern heads as a cut-down sampled loop, most memorably in David Morales’ hit banger from ’98, “Needin You”. Now we can all enjoy the divine, and previously “rare”, pleasure (prescient name guys!) of an underground classic worthy of its own limelight.
