01. Barry White – I Love To Sing The Songs – 20th Century Fox Records
Little known gem where Mr White comes over all Northen soul. It’s ridiculously uplifting.
02. NEU – HALLOGALLO – UNITED ARTISTS
10 minutes of pure German 70’s bliss.
03. TLC – NO SCRUBS – LAFACE
It would have to be the video of this R+B classic as it’s so far ahead of what was to come its mind blowing.
I also do a mean karaoke version of this, though that’s not at my house.
04. Joubert Singers – Stand By The Word (Larry Levan Remix)
A school choir sings Gospel and is then remixed by disco legend Larry Levan, that’s got to work.
05. The Stooges – Dirt – Elecktra
To be fair I’d play the whole of Fun House but this is as good a starting point as any
06. Rolling Stones – Heaven – Virgin
From Tattoo you, a mind blowing piece of late night rock
07. Nathan Fake – The Sky Was Pink (Icelandic Version) – Border Community
I think you have to be very very clever to write computer music as beautiful as this
08. Tulio De Piscopo – Stop Bajon – ZYX Records
The rantings of a crazy man and Don Cherry combine to brilliant effect on this prime slice of 80’s Italo Disco
09. Michael Mcdonald – Sweet Freedom
Hipsters would have you play I keep forgettin’ but this has Gregory Hines in the video so its the winner.
10. Yellowman – Zungguzuzeng – Volcano
A classic reggae track that still I find strangely hypnotic
