Fingers 1979 LP Disco Jazz

http://www.discogs.com/Fingers-Fingers/release/1258591

Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot of information about this one off pairing of Michael Ford (6) & Chris Adams (6).

They made this Disco Jazz album and must have made this classic and fallen off the earth. There is a lot of funk and jazz influence and no ballads here. Just pure dancing bliss for all.

Apparently this was a New York underground gay classic. However that suggestion brought up some controversy on Discogs. I was able to snag a copy of it for myself on eBay for a really good price. Now a month or 2 later you all will be able to hear it in its complete grandeur. Sadly because they used such a common name its really difficult to find any info online about them. Its damn near impossible to find on Discogs let alone any other website. So hope you all enjoy this one off NYC dance classic as much as I do. Besides loving the cover, I mean what's not to love about a sexy glow in the dark banana phallic symbol?

Been Lazy Lately

Disco lovers forgive me, for I have sinned. Its been countless weeks since my last vinyl rip and Blog post. LOL. I just havn't been taking the time to devote to ripping any of my records. I'm an avid Discogs.com contributor and still have a ton of scans to do of the covers of records I own that have either no artwork or very poor image quality and size. Oh, not to mention I have over 5,000 MP3 files in iTunes and probably another couple hundred MP3s I still need to organize into my Soulseek sharing files and I'm like way meticulous with music organization. LOL.

Plus I snoozed on an opportunity to publish some tracks for Sky Covington's upcoming Nikki-O Project album. At the same time as one of my own releases is coming out. 2 tracks feature my vocals and 2 tracks are my productions. This will be my second vinyl release on Deep Explorer Records out of Spain. You know I'm excited about that. Nice to be a vinyl lover and have your own stuff pressed on vinyl!!
