June 14, 1986: “House” is actually Chicago-speak for “garage”

ODDS ‘N’ BODS

PHIL FEARON obviously heeds my hints, as he’s reviving Tony Etoria’s ‘I Can Prove It’ (he’s also expanding ‘Expansions 86’ for Chris Paul)! . . . Chris Paul himself is after personality DJs for South Harrow Bogarts and a new Ealing nightclub: send CV and tape to him at Bogarts, Alexandra Avenue, South Harrow, Middlesex HA2 9AD . . . Stock-Aitken-Waterman will be making their debut as artists with guest vocalists, who could well include the likes of Astrud Gilberto and Georgie Fame, on a segued medley of Richie Cole’s ‘New York Afternoon‘ and their own new ‘Everlasting Love‘ bossa nova . . . Randy ‘Funky Chicken’ Muller rang me to say he only missed a bomb in Germany by three days last year but regardless he and Skyy leader Solomon Roberts Jr will visit the UK some time this year, if only to keep up to date with the fashions: Randy’s currently producing a group of New York rappers called Rappers Convention, and for EMI release soon an outfit called Nyteshift . . . Chad Jackson arrived at the Nimes festival in the Roman amphitheatre to find it was a competition for personality DJs rather than mixers, yet he still came second! . . . Disco Mix Club launch in the States in July, following the May introduction of now a third LP in their monthly subscription DJ-only service, this one devoted to International Mixes — this month Les Adams has excelled himself with a ‘Laugh It Off‘ mix that medleys George Formby, Charles Penrose, Lonnie Donegan and more to the ‘Set It Off’ beat, a party classic for years to come (subscription details on 06286 67276) . . . London now have UK rights to Run-DMC, who’ve already sold out New York’s massive Madison Square Gardens for two nights the weekend immediately after the New Music Seminar (coinciding with London’s own UK Fresh ’86 rap fest) . . . New York hip hoppers turned out in force to mourn, at the Bronx’s Devil’s Nest, the recent closure of the legendary home of rap Disco Fever, tribute payers including Run-DMC, Fat Boys, Whodini, Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Flash, Doug E Fresh, Force MD’s, Lisa Lisa, Jellybean Benitez, Bernard Wright and more — the real Fresh ’86? . . . Archie Bell & The Drell’s big boom oldie, now the other one’s out here, is rapidly becoming ‘Hard Not To Like You‘ . . . Matt Bianco is now twin-packed with a bonus c.116½-120½bpm ‘Matt’s Megamix‘ of their samba-style hits . . . Ian Foster ‘Tell Me It’s True’ is already also in a 97¾bpm New York Remix (MCA MCAX 1025) to split its sparse sales, and even a Les Adams 0-109-115¾-0bpm Total Contrast Megamix has had little effect on ‘What You Gonna Do About It’ (London LONXR 95) . . . Haywoode ‘Roses’ is also in a DJs-only promo remix by Michael Barbiero, but forgive me if I don’t BPM it, there are other things to do — um, like would you believe four weeks worth of Hit Numbers for next week?! . . . Steve Walsh, now driving a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow 1 number S(teven) M(aurice) W(alsh) 100, guests on ‘Solid Soul’ this Friday (13), and later that evening with Danny Smith at Gt Yarmouth Marina Centre for “the hottest in black music including heavy funk, improvised jazz and real emotional soul” — doesn’t sound like the Walsh gigs we know! . . . Saturday (14) Essex Radio’s Disco John Leech, Bob Jones and Gilles Peterson head Sudbury Gainsborough Club’s 4pm alldayer . . . Nu Shooz and the Crown Heights Affair remix synch together “forever”, tips Graham Gold, who’s returned on Saturdays to Mayfair Gullivers (which doesn’t close until late August) . . . Pete Waterman points out the amazing similarity of Maze ‘Twilight’ to Colonel Abrams ‘I’m Not Gonna Let’ — so maybe Frankie Beverly is really The Godfather Of House and guvnor of the garage groove? . . . Antionette’s backing appears to be by B.T. Express, in spirit if not in fact . . . Princess’s original version of her Hi-NRG LP track ‘In The Heat Of A Passionate Moment’, yet to be released, is really Hi-NRG! . . . Julian Jonah’s ludicrously Paul Hardcastle-like single was actually mixed by him, so no wonder . . . Frank Bruno is cutting a single, naturally enough called ‘Know What I Mean’! . . . RELEASE THE TENSION!

HOT VINYL

WILLIE COLON: ‘Set Fire To Me’ (A&M AMY 330)
The salsa star is already creating mayhem on floors here with his somewhat Santana-ish 116½bpm Latin Jazzbo sizzler and its even beefier scatting Inferno Dub flip, practically the new ‘Jingo’ except not quite as dynamic. But what a beat!

UTFO: ‘We Work Hard’ (US Select Records FMS 62272)
On an excellent value double-sider, this Full Force-produced furious jittery 0-100¾-100¼-0bpm go go hip hop rapper in ‘Alice’ style with human beat box and many bright hooks is flipped by the equally hot — or hotter — nursery rhyme singalong ‘n’ rap 0-105¼-0bpm ‘Kangol & Doc‘, both scratched by Hitman Howie Tee. The freshest jams in town.

THE REAL ROXANNE with HITMAN HOWIE TEE: ‘(Bang Zoom) Let’s Go-Go’ (Cooltempo COOLX 125)
Full Force are behind this other hot double-sider too, backing the bragging 0-99-0bpm rap ‘n’ scratch with a fascinating sequence including real soul singing, Fred Astaire big band licks and a ‘Bugs Bunny’ Elmer Fudd finale! The stark 101¾bpm ‘Howie’s Teed Off‘ cuts in Brick’s ‘Dazz’ amongst others, on a strong flip.

MIDNIGHT STAR: ‘Headlines’ (MCA Records MCAT 1065)
Weaving catchy “extra extra, read all about it” newspaper chants with radio and TV newsreader cliches into their marathon loosely jiggling (0-)103¼-103½bpm go go groove (inst flip), the group are already big news on dancefloors here and could even be the next Nu Shooz.

AURRA: ‘Like I Like It (Remix)’ (10 Records TENT 126)
Starleanna and Curt’s year old jauntily infectious disco smash in its new 107-0bpm Regisford & Jarvis remix will now hopefully get the crossover success it always deserved (dub remix and lightweight 108½bpm ‘I Love Myself‘ flip).

WILLIE COLLINS: ‘Where You Gonna Be Tonight?’ (Capitol 12CL 410)
The soul singing postman’s standout album title track is unanimously the UK clubs’ choice, a wonderful buoyantly cantering (0-)113bpm Vandross-ish wriggler hopefully not too subtle for the less soulful masses, flipped by the moodily rolling 103½bpm vocal ‘Sticky Situation‘.

PAUL HARDCASTLE: ‘Foolin’ Yourself’ (Chrysalis PAUL X2)
Back to the jerky Kevin Henry sung jittery driving (0-)117½bpm ‘D’ Train-ish groove of old, very typical, flipped by his album’s (0-)125bpm ‘King Tut‘ and good jiggly 108¼bpm ‘Strollin’‘.

FATBACK: ‘I Found Lovin” (Important Records TANT 10)
Familiarity may be a balm for many, but how much more often can anyone bear to hear the remorselessly pushing ultimately inconclusive ominous 104¾bpm bass line of this (un-remixed) monstrously over-played classic? The ‘Bolero’ of London’s black clubs, it appears to have been either the influence of, or influenced by, Kenny Beck’s composition ‘Mine All Mine‘, depending on which can be proved to have come first (he’s worked with Fatback as well as Cashflow, it seems!). Anyway, the flip has their great 108½bpm ‘Is This The Future?‘ and the Fatback Band’s 0-119¾-122½bpm ‘Spanish Hustle’. For mixers it’s obviously a must!

KING MC FEATURING ‘SCREAMIN’ K’: ‘What Have I Done For You Lately’ (Important Records TANT 9)
Janet Jackson’s pounding 112½bpm beat remains the basis for a Kutmaster Rob scratched answer version rapped and scolded as a fierce duet (inst/edit flip).

CAROL WILLIAMS: ‘What’s The Deal’ (US New Image NIR 1133)
Background vocalist on the similarly Darryl Payne-produced Kreamcicle, Carol gets Jocelyn Brown-ish on a soulfully/acappella-started chunky 0-105½bpm lurcher which may actually end up losing out to the flip’s possibly stronger airily chiming 117¾bpm ‘Have You For My Love‘.

KREAMCICLE: ‘No News Is News — Remix’ (US New Image NIR 1234)
Chick-wailed loosely strung jittery juddery (0-)113¼-113-112½bpm old weaver (inst flip) remixed by original producer Darryl Payne — rather than by Froggy, who’s planning a remix of his own.

OSIRIS: ‘War On The Bullshit’ (Baad Records 12ATTACK 2, Via Pinnacle)
Grace Jones meets George Clinton for a previously hard to find chanting extended 107¼bpm funk workout that’s been big in London’s more determinedly trendy clubs for some time (edited flip).

RUN-DMC: ‘Raising Hell’ LP (US Profile PRO-1217)
America’s fastest and biggest selling rap set ever, already, shouting and scratching with some rock as you’d expect, has the violent 0-97bpm ‘Hit It Run’, percussive 96¾bpm ‘Is It Live‘, jaunty (0-)127¾-0bpm ‘You Be Illin’‘, excitingly chugging pure AoR 105½bpm ‘Walk This Way‘, human beat box started 0-81-85bpm ‘Son Of Byford/Proud To Be Black‘, 95¼bpm ‘My Adidas‘, 0-95½bpm ‘Dumb Girl‘, 0-105½bpm ‘Peter Piper‘, 127¾bpm ‘It’s Tricky‘, 0-85¼-0bpm ‘Perfection‘, and heavy rock 0-84½bpm title track (several seguing together).

SHIRLEY JONES: ‘Do You Get Enough Love’ (US Philadelphia International V-56024)
The Jones Girl’s solo superb sultrily soulful 67bpm rolling Bunny Sigler slowie, with pent-up piano triplets and confidential rap (edit, and cantering 119¼bpm ‘We Can Work It Out’ flip), has immediately hit the US black chart — but here potential buyers are waiting for an album (well, it’s a ballad!).

FORCE MD’s: ‘Here I Go Again’ (Tommy Boy 12IS 286)
Smokey Robinson-ish terrific intensifying (0-)66½-67¾-68½-69¼-0bpm real soul slowie, more rhythmic (after a skippable start) than the last ‘un.

EL DeBARGE: ‘Who’s Johnny’ (Gordy ELDT I)
Five Star-type jerkily skittering (0-)110½bpm catchy pop song from the film ‘Short Circuit’, also about on promo in a more percussive (0-)110-0bpm remix, sorta Jackson 5 ‘I Want You Back’ meets ‘Rhythm Of The Night’ — and the 0-116¼bpm latter is flip.

TERRY M: ‘I Love Music’ (MCA Records MCAT 1063)
French originated Tavares-type fairly faithful (0-)124¾-125-0bpm galloping O’Jay’s remake, flipped by the ‘Billie Jean’-ish instrumental 118bpm ‘Moustachio‘.

WANDA DEE: ‘Blue Eyes’ (Lisson Records DOLEQ 1, via PRT)
The ‘Beat Street’ rapper’s London-recorded Kenny Beck-prod/co-penned nervily jittering 101½bpm scratcher (inst flip) is nothing innovatory but seems to be benefiting from its label’s launch.

GLENN JONES: ‘Love Intensity’ (RCA PT 49840)
Pleasant rolling jiggly 115¼bpm soul swayer, on 12 inch with the gently lurching instrumental 111¾bpm ‘Finesse (Dub)‘ and Narada-ish black rock 127bpm ‘Talked Me Into It’ (dub too).

PETRIA: ‘I Miss Your Love’ (US Romil RM 1001-12C)
Initially mundane 112¾bpm Shannon-ish judderer building through a brief phonecall and some frisky scatting (in four mixes).

JANICE CHRISTIE: ‘I’m Hungry For Your Love’ (US SuperTronics RY014)
Self-prod/penned, this pent-up breathy nagging 105¼bpm juddery jogger could worm its way upside several skulls, so give it a chance to sink in (dub flip).

PAMELA MEYERS: ‘Feel My Funky Heartbeat’ (US New Image NIR 4354)
Gwen McCrae’s ‘Funky Sensation’ meets T-Ski Valley’s ‘!Catch The Beat!’ at a subdued 103¼bpm (inst flip), nuff said?

400 BLOWS: ‘Let The Music Play’ (KR Records KRT 01, via RCA)
Charles Earland’s 1978 disco oldie gets much the same treatment as did Brass Construction’s ‘Movin” in this galloping brassily brittle 124¼bpm remake (with female choruses, or 123¼bpm instrumental).

CHIP E: ‘Time To Jack’ (US Underground UN-1O2)
“House” is actually Chicago-speak for “garage”, and here The Godfather Of House creates yet another typically sparse strange 124¾bpm groove for garage fanatics (in three different mixes).

WHITE KNIGHT: ‘Never Give Up’ (US DJ International Records DJ-889)
Surprisingly slow to go, this 118bpm Chicago house party sounds to me like Russ Brown meeting Colonel Abrams, Whistle and a gospel group at Paradise Garage — in other words, interesting!

TACK>HEAD: ‘Is There A Way Out’ (On-U Sound DP 15-12)
B boys beware! DJ Cheese cuts up this wild and woolly 103½bpm scratcher, solid beat, the flip of ‘Mind At The End Of The Tether‘.
