ODDS ‘N’ BODS

STEVE ‘SILK’ HURLEY also has a totally different treatment due of ‘Love Can’t Turn Around’, the Farley ‘Jackmaster’ Funk & Jessie Saunders version of which exploded in our chart last week, not by being the biggest selling newie but because most jocks charting it already had it at number one! . . . Chicago’s “house” and “jack” styles (ie: “garage” by its local name) may be the most exciting new development in dance music but typically it’s being resisted in Central London’s blacker clubs — however, the faster tempos are taking off elsewhere, and it seems north of Watford Gap many jocks are already taking things to extremes (as they usually do with any easily definable style, miaou, miaou!) . . . Dancin’ Danny D has remixed Loose Ends’ ‘Gonna Make You Mine’ B-side, and Ian Levine is remixing Bucks Fizz (well he would, wouldn’t he?) . . . Style Council’s next single will feature the Showmen’s chairman of the board General Johnson as lead vocalist, reviving last year’s General Crooks & Willie Clayton ‘Love Pains’ . . . Sixties veteran Steve Mancha’s comeback single for EMI is shaping up as a joyful goodie, sorta Dr Buzzard meets the Temptations on the Grapevine! . . . Paradise leader, gospel singing Paul Johnson, is recording secular soul for CBS produced by his chum Junior . . . Luther Vandross’ next B-side will include his track from ‘The Goonies’ soundtrack, ‘She’s So Good To Me‘ . . . The O’Jays’ old ‘My Favourite Person‘ is becoming another boom tune around London . . . CBS’s one-time disco plugger, now in A&R, Steve Ripley, is moving to New York as International Product Manager, off hats! . . . Sergio Munzibai has indeed resigned his Motown post (so is that an end to those M&M remixes on the label?) . . . Regina ‘Baby Love‘ belatedly topped US Club Play (it’ll be reissued here next month) and Billy Ocean ‘Sad Songs‘ Black 45s in Billboard . . . Sinitta ‘So Macho’ evidently sold more copies in one Sheffield shop than anything ever, including ‘Mull Of Kintyre’ . . . Fnday (27) Chad Jackson cuts up Lowestoft Ziggies, Saturday (28) Robbie Vincent souls Bristol Sanborn’s, Monday (30) Kev Hill kicks off his “wicked” weekly Guvnor’s Clinic at Basildon Sweeney’s with guests Pete Tong & Bob Jones . . . BBC Radio Merseyside soul jock Kenni James hosts a funky river cruise next Thursday (3), tickets from Hot Waxx and Chevertons record shops . . . Gary Hickson (Blackburn Kaleidoscope), already doing a club chart rundown Fridays on BBC Radio Lancashire, is about to sit in for holidaying afternoon man Simon Johnson . . . Johnny Wakelin supported Muhammad Ali on ‘Black Superman’ and ‘In Zaire’ now he’s turned — in similarly rabble rousing 0-108¼bpm basic chant style — to ‘Bruno‘ (Chrysalis KOX 1), featuring “you know what I mean, ‘Arry?” loud and clear, unlike last weeks inferior although officially sanctioned rival . . . SORRY, WRONG BEAT!

JULIE ROBERTS, now she’s a TV presenter, has gone all posh and added a “t” to make her Juliet for the revived ‘More Than One Night (Love Mix)‘ (Bluebird/10 BRT 22). Remixed by Herbie Mastermind and herself, the original old B-side had a reggae-ish following in London’s blacker clubs but now, with a “shabba dabba doo” or two and some muted horn, it’s become a possibly too loosely strung rambling 0-81¾bpm jiggly slow weaver (instrumental flip).

STREETWAVE RECORDS continue to raid the ‘CBS Club Classics 2’ LP for their DJ Limited Edition 12-inch series, the latest teaming back to back DEXTER WANSEL ‘Life On Mars‘/WILLIE BOBO ‘Always There‘ (Streetwave SWAVE 9).

HOT VINYL

THE S.O.S. BAND: ‘Borrowed Love (Remix)’ (Tabu TA 7241)
Jam & Lewis replough that fertile Yarbrough & Peoples pioneered ‘Change Of Heart’ furrow for this acappella finished 100¼bpm purposeful roller, flipped by the group’s own self-produced but still typical (0-)87½bpm ‘Do You Still Want To?‘ Uh-huh.

YOUNG & CO.: ‘Such A Feeling’ (US The Sound of London SOL-986-12)
With an infectious burbling bassline and hints of Aurra’s oldie of the same name, this joyful gospelish 119½bpm bounder comes in three mixes, the dubbier Club (B) being pure garage. Er, I thought TSOL was one of Morgan Khan’s labels?

MELBA MOORE: ‘Love The One I’m With’ (US Capitol V-15236)
Bouncily duetted with producer Kashif, this perkily lurching 115½bpm skipper is typically staccato over spiky beats and sets up a happy feeling despite the cold mechanics of its backing. Certainly for soul modernists, it could have wider appeal, too.

WALLY JUMP JUNIOR & THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT: ‘Jummp-Back’ (US Criminal Records CRIM 00001)
Bunging in bits of other things in the chants and using members of Rockers Revenge and more, Arthur Baker (with co-mixer Shep Pettibone) has created a loosely rambling 114½bpm answer to Dhar Braxton, in four versions, one with Gil Scott Heron-ish rap and another with reggae toasting.

INNERLIFE: ‘Your Love’ (US Personal P49825)
Greg Carmichael produced, soulful girl wailed, jauntily wriggling lightly buoyant 115½bpm straightahead strider, dead simple and timeless good dance music (sparser Club Mix and acappella flip).

AUDREY HALL: ‘Smile’ (Germain DGT 15, via Jet Star/EMI)
Sounding like another instant smash, this seductively winsome 86bpm sweet lovers rock has a cooler 81¾bpm Club Mix flip.

MIDNIGHT STAR: ‘Midas Touch’ (LP ‘Headlines’ MCA Records MCF 3322)
This very Shalamar-ish (0-)117bpm nagger has so far had probably more radio play than the here full-length 0-103½-103¼bpm title track, so must be another future hit, while getting club action still are the slinky 80bpm ‘Close Encounter‘, jogging 101¼bpm ‘Close To Midnight‘, dated (0-)122½bpm ‘Engine No 9‘.

BLUE MODERNE: ‘Through The Night’ (Sure Delight SDT02, via Jet Star)
The Ish Ledesma prod/penned pleasant 107-0bpm girlie group swayer with a ‘Set It Off’ beat (in five mixes) proved less of a stayer on import than anticipated, but deserves to be heard.

AFRIKA BAMBAATAA: ‘Bambaataa’s Theme’ (US Tommy Boy TB 879)
Apart from some incidental growling vocoder this moody 109¼bpm electro treatment of the theme from ‘Assault On Precinct 13’ is, unusually for Bam, an instrumental. Initially unthrilling, it’s a nagging grower popular with mixers (try it out of Gwen Guthrie), while the flip’s lethargic vaguely Bowie-esque vocal 107bpm ‘Tension‘ has fans too.

ERIC B. Featuring Rakim: ‘Eric B. Is President’ (US Zakia ZK 014)
Rakim raps that cutmaster Eric B. does it in the mix so well he’s President (amongst other topics) on a muddily burbling 96½bpm scratcher, another that uses the Mohawks’ ‘The Champ’, coupled with the more talkative 88½bpm ‘My Melody‘ and their dubs. Strictly for B Boys.

STAGE COACH: ‘Mystic Mood’ (US United Sound Inc USI 201)
Setting up an ominously lurching 104¾bpm ‘Nasty’ drive, the Los Angeles label’s debut then eases back for a mournful fellah’s soulful vocal while the beat still jolts from peak to peak, creating nagging tension that could prove compulsive (inst/edit flip).

CON FUNK SHUN: ‘Burnin’ Love’ LP (US Mercury 826 963-1 M-I)
Uninspired funk with the (0-)115½bpm title track single, muttering 107¼bpm ‘She’s A Star‘ and chugging 113½bpm ‘She’s Sweet‘ mixed by Mark Berry, sassily chattering funky 114¾bpm ‘Jo Jo‘, juddering 117¾bpm ‘Do Ya‘, dreary 0-79bpm ‘How Long’, pleasantly swaying 77½-0bpm ‘It’s Time Girl’, and — most soulful of the lot — lushily swirling 0-86-0bpm ‘You Make Me Wanna Love Again‘.

THE CONTROLLERS: ‘My Secret Fantasy’ (LP ‘Stay’ MCA Records MCF 3324)
Apart from the 97¾bpm title track hit the only tracks to end up meaning much have been this ‘All Night Long’ tempoed 94¾bpm swayer and the ‘Sexual Healing’-ish 95¼bpm ‘Break Out The Love‘ — which is not to ignore the exquisite acappella interrupted 47¾bpm revival of Marvin’s ‘Distant Lover‘.

BARBARA MITCHELL: ‘High On Love’ LP (Mercury 826 887-1)
The High Inergy leader’s Larry Blackmon-produced solo set isn’t that great but has the pleasant Randy Crawford-ish sultry soul-jazz 90¾bpm ‘Take Your Time’ (once flip to the 111bpm ‘Ace Of My Heart‘), Kary Hubbert of Cashflow duetted slushy 77¼bpm ‘Don’t Look Over Me‘, bumping quavery 102bpm ‘Never Had A Love Like This Before‘, slow rocky 77bpm ‘High On Love’, squeakily cantering 114½bpm ‘Can’t Help The Way I Feel’.

CULTURAL VIBE: ‘Ma Foom Bey’ (US Easy Street EZS-7525)
Stripped to skittering electronic beats and punchy bass synth, with some stark afro/arabic chanting on two of its three versions, this Tony Humphries mixed 116½bpm sparse bounder is “garage” at its most fascinating basic.

ANTHONY AND THE CAMP: ‘What I Like’ (Warner Bros W8730T)
Serious Intention’s voice Anthony Malloy produced by Jellybean on a lightly lurching 117¾bpm canterer (in four versions), only big on import for a very few, surprisingly.

SLEEZY D.: ‘I’ve Lost Control’ (US Trax TX113)
Back to Chicago’s specialist stark freaky true “jack trax” style for a nervily skittering mix of muttering, yelling, and ‘Set It Off/Go Bang!’ beat, prod/played by Virgo, in beefier 120½bpm Space Side and sparser 123bpm House Side versions.

DUANE & CO.: ‘Hardcore Jazz’ (US Dance Mania DM001)
Yet another new label busting out of Chicago with four more jack tracks for garage house parties, James Brown grunts being scratched into the 118½bpm ‘J.B. Traxx’, while the 118½bpm ‘Piano Traxx’, 120¼bpm ‘J.A.B. Traxx‘ and 119¾bpm ‘Traxx‘ are alternative grooves.

VIOLA WILLS: ‘You Are The Reason Why’ (Streetwave MKHAN 70)
Although yet to sell, this low key slinky 0-75bpm slowie’s subtle attractive lilt gradually grabs after several listens, especially on radio.

ASTRA Featuring Miss Ollie James and Miss Terry Guest: ‘Wake Up To My Love’ (Elite DAZZ 53, via DMS/RCA)
Slinkily swaying girl-sung 91bpm swayer with tootling piccolo sax creating a relaxed vaguely ‘Juicy Fruit’-ish vibe (though less of a song), in three mixes.

MARVIN GAYE: ‘The World Is Rated X’ (Motown ZT 40758)
Tedious typical ‘What’s Goin’ On’-style 0-88¾-88bpm weaver (inst, and gentle mid-Sixties 0-112½bpm ‘Lonely Lover‘ flip).

TGB: ‘Do The Right Thing’ (US Nicole NR-100-001)
Soulfully gurgled by Patricia Shannon, this beefy 101¾bpm lurcher rolls satisfyingly through busy electric piano and searing sax without really becoming a hit song, with a messier 115¼bpm ‘What Goes Around, Comes Around‘ flip for rare soul fans.

ABACUSH: ‘Sunshine Island’ (Abacush A.B. 003, via Jet Star)
Girls sung summery 99¼-98bpm sorta samba-cum-reggae skipper tropical sums it up, frothy and feather light (inst flip).

SANDRA EDWARDS: ‘Give Me Some Emotion’ (Soul Town 45 SAND/12/001), via Pinnacle)
Huskily soulful Sandra bellows and emotes through a potentially lush though roughly mixed swaying 0-90¼bpm “orchestral” backing which builds a nice enough sinuous atmosphere.

YASMIN: ‘I Can’t Forget’ (Total Control Records 12TOCO 10)
Steve Walsh’s executive assistant, bubbly Yasmin James coos a wriggly 118½bpm lightweight London canterer.

BEGGAR & CO.: ‘Life’ (Total Control Records 12TOCO 9)
Jittery 117¾bpm spurter adapting several easily spotted influences with sharp brass spiking the chants, chat and Wham! rap, or a far preferable more relaxed 117bpm Alternative Mix flip (edit too).
