GENE CHANDLER "When you're #1"

From Chicago and released in 1979. This is a must have and a very powerful Disco tune.

SPECIAL FORCE "Metropolitan transit authority"

One of my favorite rap record. There are two 12" with the same jacket and the same label but the versions are slightly differents, released in 1986.
I've heard it for the first time on the radio, it was on Radio 7 in the RLP's show where DJ Dee Nasty played regulary. I've recorded it and no name during more than 15 years, one day I met Dee Nasty and I asked to him what it is, he can't remember but he told me, "I know what it is, let me some time". Few months later, Dee Nasty was invited at the radio show where I mixed (with DJ Asko) and he brings me a CD where he recorded the track. Wonderful, 18 years later, this track was mine ! I've started to looking for but impossible to find. I talk to myself, that the kind of expensive record on e-bay and chip at N.Y. Later I'm gone to N.Y., I was in Brooklyn and the first shop, the first search, I find it for $3,99, a dream... Now I've 2 copies that how I know for the differents mixes.



enjoy it

WILLIAM STUCKEY "Disco fly"

Excellent flyin high synth tune with very good classic old school Hip Hop drums break.

JAZZY 5 & The Kryptic Krew "Jazzy sensation"

Ripped from an original copy !
Very hard to find and first record for Bambaataa as an artist. it's an Arthur Baker production one year before their anthem "Planet rock". They use the "Funky sensation" of Gwen Mc Crae for the music that you can find here too.
