Shiva - :20 Minute Workout

Ok finally I have a USB Audio Interface for my USB Turntable. Kind of oxymoronic don't you think, sound redundant? It is. Don't ever buy a USB turntable you'll just have to buy an interface for the rca cables to get rid of the terrible hiss.

Ok now that I have vented, here's the story. I bought this record a while back and fell in love with it. Its a rare find and I got a great deal. Problem is it was released by Ronco and shitty super thin vinyl and the recording is really bad and low quality. So on my USB turntable, forget it, I wasn't getting a decent rip. Now I have the USB Audio interface and it took care of a lot of noise. Still kind of a shitty sound but I tried to clean it up as best I could with what I have. Its ripped at 320 kbps so its pretty decent, still not the best.

For the purpose of pure musical enjoyment I present :Shiva - :20 Minute Workout. It is an odd sorce of some pretty groovy Italo-Disco style grooves since it is the soundtrack to an Aerobics work out show from the early 80s. Its pretty kitchy but super good. All the tracks are too short but that's ok there's a lot of funk packed in the tiny segments.

Marvin Gaye - In Our Lifetime 1981

This has got to be the most unique music to come from the master of the love groove. Nothing lovey dovey on this album but there are some rare funk and disco gems that must be heard. Unfortunatly the metal ring of a note book of mine got pressed up against the vinyl and scratched the first 2 tracks on side A. So I don't have them included in the rip. Its ok though cause they aren't the best goodies any how. Please enjoy.

Melba Moore - Never Say Never

I am a new fan of Melba. I just won 11 of her albums on ebay. This and one other I got before that though. This one here, "Never Say Never", is my new currant favorite record I'm spinning. Its pure Boogie bliss. I hope you all like it. For those who are familiar with Boogie Times you'll be familiar with the sounds laid down here. Smooth 80s grooves.

Stephanie Mills - Tantalizingly Hot (new link)

Not much I can say about this release then it is absolutely stellar. I'm so happy to have it in my collection. Its an excellent example of the great music that came about when producers started toning down disco to create boogie master pieces in the early 80s.

Ms. Stephanie Mills tells it like it T I is on this release. Keep Away Girls is so classic. Its a perfect bitch track pushed through with the utmost of class and sass. She was lettin' sneaky females know that they need to step off and "do it movin'" (as they say in San Francisco), or suffer the consequences. LOL. She lived for that one.

'Ole Love and I Can't Give Back The Love really make me feel about my most recent failed relationship. She really speaks to women with those two tracks. Its so hard to let go of good love.

So let me wipe my tears and let you all enjoy this masterpiece.

Clifton Dyson - Slow Your Body Down 1981

Check this rare boogie from 1981. Side one is a continuous two part 17 minute track. I'm sure you'll dig it if you're into deep garage style grooves. This is something I discovered on youtube I think. I was able to score a re-issue for only $2.99. I was shocked.

Courtney Pine ft. Susaye Greene - Children of The Ghetto

As I said I've gotten into all things late Supremes and Post-Supremes. So here is another adition. Hope you enjoy this beautiful jazz cut featuring Susaye Greene's beautiful vocals and the hypnotic sax stylings of Courtney Pine.

Loleatta Holloway - Crash Goes Love 1984

I only included the The title track mixes and not the ballad "Sweet Thing" that is a remake of Chaka Khan. This is classic Hi-NRG in the same vein as Shannon's "Let the Music Play" from around the same time. You can hear in one of Loleatta's runs. Her vocalizations are almost identical. As always, Click the Pic.

Ultimate II LP 1980

This is some pretty fluffy disco I bought for the cover art. I love the cover 100% the music itself took some time to grow on me. When I first listened to it I was like this is a throw away. Then on a second and third play I noticed I kind of liked it for its light heartedness which is what I like a lot of music from the 70s and 80s for. Music back then didn't have to have all the weight (translate: dark and moody) that much of today's underground music has to have in order to be considered true and deep. The stand out track is "Secret Agent Man". As always to check it out, click the pic
