Here we have a ssshhhh under the counter disco re-edit of the highest calibre. This track really is the business. Great string arrangements and vocals combine to make it a killer track with a deadly intro that just builds and builds.

Originally released via Epic on a promo only 12” single. A Love Unlimited exclusive…enjoy.

After such a wet & windy Bank Holiday I thought about posting Date With The Rain by Eddie Kendricks but opted for this disco-nugget - Rainy Days, Stormy Nights by Impact.

This is the Special 12″ Disco Mix released on Fantasy Records in 1977.

FOR DISCOS ONLY

Another Eddie Kendricks re-edit and this time it is one that’s Ron Hardy inspired but with a serious twist of Theo Parrish. It was released a few years ago, the first in series of DAM re-edits from Chicago.

It looks like Picadilly have it in stock.

…enjoyed reading a post recently at Dilated Choonz on Ron Hardy inspired re-edits. This is a re-edit of a Ron Hardy anthem on M&S Records, Inc., not a Ron Hardy inspired re-edit and unequivocably unattributable to the man himself. It’s a dancefloor bomb

stop the hate and killing now
we all have to go anyhow

back in stock at Picadilly Records.
