Since the Scroggins sisters first bust out of the South Bronx in the early 80s with their intoxicating brew of urban funk, they’ve been sampled to death – often without financial reward. Finally, ESG look like hitting
paydirt as ‘Dance’ from ’82 springs out of the Toyota ‘Verso’ ads. Here the tune is faithfully covered by Young Punx’ Hal Ritson and Nathan Taylor with new vocals by Tiffany Gore. ESG worked so well and surprised clubland because they worked their sexy magic with only bass, percussion and sultry vocals .Therefore it’s the original and Retromixes which work best here as they focus on that brilliant vocal melody. There are also house and electro treatments by Muttonheads,Young Punx, Mohito and MoveYa! & Steve Lavers (excellent).Ultimately, what a song!
