January 24, 1987: Steinski & Mass Media, Anita Baker, The System, Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince, MC. G.L.O.B.E.

ODDS ‘N’ BODS

STEVE ‘SILK’ HURLEY – according to no less a source than ‘John Craven’s Newsround’ – apparently reckons he won’t be getting any royalties from his deal for ‘Jack Your Body’ and, as he’s now a member of J.M. Silk on another label anyway, isn’t going to help his hit by promoting it in person – he doesn’t appreciate, though, that by coming here he’d become a star in his own right, regardless of the royalty situation … Simon Harris has actually remixed ‘Jack Your Body’, for creatively marketed release … Technics 1987 DJ Mixing Championships heats don’t stop even for the weather, the winner at Manchester Saturdays being the remarkable Johnny Jay from the Gallery (see caption), with a mightily peeved Rob Manley from Bolton’s Dance Factory second, and local scratcher Danny Bennett third, while – after fellow judge Les Adams had driven me the long way round (via Birmingham and Leicester) as the Pennines were impassable – at Barnsley’s prettily decorated Japanese Whispers the winner was def Funkmaster Hutchy from Leeds’ the News, with Chuzzer from Hull’s Juliets second and local lad Sean Broadhurst third (although John Melkin of Sheffield’s Isabellas was highly commended) … Radio Manchester’s soul jock Mike Shaft created a truly marathon ‘Best Of 86 Mix‘ which must have taken weeks to assemble, very neatly apart from some clashing keys which don’t really matter … Les Adams seems to be commissioned to make a megamix a week, his latest being an incredibly smooth Tina Turner medley … Tashan’s UK single will be the US A-side, ‘Chasin’ A Dream‘, but flipped for the floors by ‘Read My Mind‘ … Gap Band’s follow-up couples ‘Bop B Da B Da Da‘ with ‘Keep Holding On (Remix)’ … Al Jarreau has at last recorded the theme from TV’s ‘Moonlighting‘ for singles release – incidentally, the series’ soul-loving star Bruce Willis has released a very respectable recreation of the Staples Singers’ ‘Respect Yourself’ on US Motown! … Shep Pettibone has remixed the old Colors ‘Am I Gonna Be The One’ (US First Take) … Man Two Man member Miki Zone died suddenly on New Year’s Eve – from spinal meningitis – only days after recording a follow-up to ‘Who Knows What Evil?’ … Ian Levine has been producing Mary Wells … Country singer Donna Reed wanted to make a funk record, so wrote to Prince, and he’s produced her on RCA! … Radio London’s newly named “NITE-fm” expanded evening programmes have recruited Gary Crowley for a ‘GCHQ’ show on Wednesdays 10pm-midnight, making a roster of Dave Pearce Monday/Thursday, Gilles Peterson Tuesday, all three alternating to present a specialist chart show Fridays … Steve Walsh’s chantalong Anthem Mix of Fatback ‘I Found Lovin’’ certainly gets played more in the North than it does in London! … Tony Jenkins is returning monthly with his star-studded Soul On Sound nights to London’s Hippodrome, starting Wednesday February 4, and likewise is at Harrow Weald’s Middlesex and Herts Country Club next Tuesday (27) … Kev Hill has started the Monday Mondo Bongo at Southend Chesters, with Chris Hill as co-host most weeks, and Pete Tong February 16, Robbie Vincent … February 23 Nick Halkes and mates funk Pressure Drop upstairs at New Cross Goldsmiths’ Tavern this Saturday (24) … Sylvester ‘Someone Like You‘ topped US Club Play, Luther Vandross ‘Stop To Love‘ Black 45s in Billboard … Bob Boardman, the ‘Bits & Pieces’ song you need is Ringo Starr ‘No No Song’ … I’d appreciate it if DJs did NOT send their charts to my home address – send ’em straight to rm … KEEP CHILLED!

JOHNNY JAY, winner of the Manchester heat of the Technics DJ Mixing Championships, is likely to prove a sensation at the finals, and a hard act to beat, because he’s now posed a new problem for contestants to master — he mixes without using headphones! OK, it’s been done before, and he does scratch into the beats that he finds, but nevertheless he manages to produce a flowing programme with some stunningly accurate one line drop-ins presumably cued by eye and experience alone. Finalists who were confident before hove got the collywobbles now!

HOT VINYL

STEINSKI & MASS MEDIA ‘We’ll Be Right Back’ (4th + B’way 12BRW 59)
Double Dee’s one-time partner has exploded first on radio and now in clubs with his debut single, which very cleverly cuts catchphrases and clichés from US TV commercials into a Full Force-type 0-101bpm bouncy beat (dub/bonus too), a real gimmick hit.

ANITA BAKER ‘Caught Up In The Rapture (Remix)’ (Elektra EKR 49T)
Her album’s most accessible dancer, this gorgeous gently loping and spurting 0-91¾bpm swayer has had its rhythm emphasised and brightened so sympathetically that now the original sounds quite flat in comparison – as does the flip’s live Hammersmith version – plus there’s Rod Temperton’s sultrily rolling slow lovely 84½bpm ‘Mystery‘, too.

THE SYSTEM ‘Come As You Are (Remix)’ (Atlantic A9297T)
Much mellower than the techno-funk duo’s past stuff, this jauntily trotting buoyant 110bpm tripper has an attractive vocal melody and could almost be another ‘Midas Touch’, it’s so catchy.

JAZZY JEFF & FRESH PRINCE ‘The Magnificent Jazzy Jeff’ (Champion CHAMP 12-38)
Jeff cuts ‘n’ scratches a jumpy 98bpm beat (spot the breaks!) while Prince raps his praises, then prompts him to make the record he’s scratching burp, and sound like a bird (inst flip). Brilliant!

M.C. G.L.O.B.E. ‘Get Ridiculous’ (US Body Rock BR 0004)
‘Dragnet’ intros a dynamite jiggly jumping 0-98¾bpm go go hip hop rap chanter – emphasis on the go go – which should get you singing along with the answering crowd as G.L.O.B.E. bounces through the beats with his every word (slightly less vocal flip).

RUN-D.M.C. ‘You Be Illin’ (Remix)’ (London LONX 118)
These guys really are the modern day Coasters (a black rock ‘n roll group who specialised in humorously enacted story songs), even down to the King Curtis-style sax on this jerkily spurting 0-128bpm catchphrase rap, which should be another pop hit (with the fiercer 0-96⅔bpm human beat boxed and scratched ‘Hit It Run‘ as flip).

CHARISSE ‘I Can’t Face The Rain’ (US Zakia Records ZK 018)
Although another female answer to Oran ‘Juice’ Jones, this Larry Woo co-created strong soulfully wailed truly chunkily socking (0-)115bpm strider is stylistically very different, despite some melodic reference points (inst/dub too), and has been getting warm for several weeks.

THE BLOW MONKEYS ‘It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way’ (RCA MONKT 4)
Once again creditably soulful, this fabulous catchily weaving (0-)97⅔bpm go go jogger is full of melody and bounce (inst/edit flip), deserving funk attention.

JODY WATLEY ‘Looking For A New Love’ (MCA Records MCAT 1107)
Co-created by Andre Cymone, the ex-Shalamar girl’s first really credible solo is a Janet Jackson inspired solidly socking (0-)109-0bpm monotonous backbeat roller that doesn’t develop much but should slot in well (inst/acappella-ish flip).

BUNCH OF 5’s ‘Shak Rendezvous’ (The Production House WB-002-12, via Bluebird)
Fascinatingly drawing on late Seventies influences, this dated though fresh 115¾bpm driving powerhouse groove is basically Brass Construction/Slave/Mass Production – get the picture? – and really raises sweat (inst flip).

DYCE ‘I Can’t Take It’ (The Production House D001-12)
Evidently a production of the Fearons’ NW10 home studio, this is another dated 120¼bpm groove given modern house style trappings with emulator voices and things washing through it (in three mixes), so far more popular than the Bunch of 5’s.

T. LA ROCK ‘Back To Burn’ (10 Records TENT 145)
The Kangol kid angrily raps to stark violent 97½bpm beats created by the golden boy of hip hop, Mantronik, with a great human beat box break (dub/edit flip), a real b boy special.

DONNA ALLEN ‘Perfect Timing’ LP (US 21 Records 90548-1)
Excellent wailing soul with the impassioned pent-up cool rolling 116⅓bpm ‘Satisfied’, Howard Johnson-duetted drifting 94bpm ‘Perfect Timing‘, soulfully bubbling (0-)113⅓bpm ‘Sweet Somebody‘, tortuous 70bpm ‘Daydreams‘, jerky 108⅓bpm ‘Bit By Bit‘, trotting 122bpm ‘Another Affair‘, murky 109½bpm ‘Wild Nights‘, plus her 12 inched great chunkily pushing 110⅓bpm ‘Serious‘ and its jolting 116⅓bpm ‘Bad Love‘ flip.

BLAZE ‘Whatcha Gonna Do’ (Champion CHAMP 12-36)
Hot nagging house bounder in Colonel Abrams style, in 118¼bpm Vocal, 118½bpm Acadub and Bonus, (0-)118bpm Radio Mixes.

HOME WRECKERS ‘Jackin’’ (Champion CHAMP 12-31)
Strong simple bass burbled ticking 120½bpm house instrumental with chiming emulator chipmunks, EMU Style being best of three mixes but here still the B-side.

E.S.P. ‘It’s You’ (US Underground UN 108)
Nice fluidly flowing “space bass” underpins gently pulsing 119bpm Kraftwerk-ish synth on a quietly satisfying house bubbler with European-style muttering and weird bits for mixers, the two instrumentals thus being best.

M.T.R. ‘The Walk’ (US Underworld AP 125)
Tommy Musto-created (as was the slightly similar Wired) jaggedly bounding 0-124bpm house galloper with hissing hi-hats, and a repeatedly muttered “you must learn to walk before you run” its only lyric (in three mixes).

XRAY ‘Let’s Go’ (US Transmat MS001)
Quite exciting distinctively galloping jack track with repeated vocal lines and effects washing through the 125⅔-0bpm Amix, a more percussive 123½-0bpm Dubmix, and an unlabelled totally different 120¼bpm bonus track.

SAMPSON “BUTCH” MOORE ‘House Beat Box’ (US Trax Records TX 128)
Steve ‘Silk’ Hurley-created typical 116¼bpm house, far better in its instrumental version, with piano wandering the ‘Set It Off’ cymbal beat.

LIBRA LIBRA ‘I Like It’ (Champion CHAMP 12-26)
Simple nagging 120¼bpm house bounder moaned like a less flamboyant Darryl Pandy (in three mixes).

FREDDIE JACKSON ‘Have You Ever Loved Somebody’ (Capitol 12CL 437)
Specially remixed for the UK, this typical soulfully worried rolling 88¾bpm romantic swayer was his LP’s hottest cut and is now coupled with an instrumental version featuring saxist Najee (from the same Hush management stable), and a backing track 79⅔bpm instrumental of ‘Tasty Love’.

TREVOR WALTERS ‘Shake You Down’ (Starlight Records SLD 540, via Jet Star)
Timely much cooler and gentler 93bpm reggaefication of Gregory Abbott’s hit, sung with taut wailing subtlety to make a strong alternative now — Trevor also has a slushy 0-90bpm sweet reggae-soul revival of the Stylistics’ ‘Betcha By Golly Wow‘ (Priority PX15).

STEVIE WONDER ‘Stranger On The Shore Of Love’ (Motown WONDT 2)
Innocuous enough 111⅔bpm MoR swayer from his last album.

MADHOUSE ‘6 (End Of The World Mix)’ (US Paisley Park 0-20608)
“Prince’s new jazz group” – sounding like an offshoot of The Family and produced by the obviously closely related Susan (Susannah?) Rogers – honk and bump through an inevitably unusual jerky 120¼-119½-120¼bpm purple funk instrumental, titled with a number as apparently are all the tracks on their even more eccentric album.

SHEILA E ‘Hold Me’ (US Paisley Park 0-20579)
Mournfully sung quietly satisfying sombre sultry soulful 76bpm slow roller, with her more usual type of snappily swirling jittery 120bpm ‘The World Is High‘ as flip.

PAUL JOHNSON When Love Comes Calling’ (CBS 650337-6)
Classily produced by his chum Junior, London’s gospel star swoops and worries through a tinkling and jittering nervy 84⅓bpm dragging tugger like a slower ‘Oh Louise’.

ARETHA FRANKLIN & GEORGE MICHAEL ‘I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)’ (Epic DUET T2)
Lacking impact at the start, a possibly over-sparsely percussive extended remix (in three versions) of the surging 107⅓bpm duet from Aretha’s album that’s kept radio request lines ringing for months, thanks not to her but to George’s fans.

RAINY DAVIS ‘Lowdown So & So’ (US Columbia 44-05997)
Janet Jackson/Five Star-tinged girlish jerkily rattling and wriggling 116¼bpm bounder with some spoken “you see that guy over there” lines about her now ex-‘Sweetheart’, following on from her last hit’s title (chunkier dub flip).

THE JETS ‘Crush On You’ (MCA Records MCAT 1048)
Speedily wriggling 121bpm lightweight leaper by the Polynesian family group, evidently reissued because of continued TV plugs on ‘No Limits’ (inst/acappella flip, plus the chunkier 118bpm ‘Right Before My Eyes‘).

MIDNIGHT STAR ‘Engine No. 9 (Whistle Stop Mix)’ (MCA Records MCAT 1117)
Even if you do like this dull lurching 0-122bpm pop plodder, wait a while as its eventfully going to be marketed with a Les Adams medley as flip.

THE REAL THING ‘Hard Times’ (Jive JIVE T 137)
Although it taps and jitters, this dreary 109½bpm jolting swayer tacks a compulsive momentum, and doesn’t even have inspired lyrics.

JENNY BURTON ‘Do You Want It Bad Enuff’ (Atlantic A9343T)
Jeanie Burton’s powerful soul wailing is better than the beat of this trickily starting 114⅓bpm swaying surger, with a pleasant tune tinkling on through several rhythm lulls (dub/edit flip).

INDIAN OCEAN ‘School Bell/Treehouse’ (4th + B’way 12BRW 57)
Mailing list DJs are apparently programming without difficulty this excitingly experimental but very tricky strange percussively episodic jazzy fast rambler by Dinosaur L’s eccentric Arthur Russell, skipping through 124¼-125-126-125¼-126½-127-130-135-134½-138-136-137bpm, with a 0-127½-1 26½-129-137bpm ‘Treehouse/School Bell (Part I)’ variation and equally erratic Part 2. The test is if it sells.

FRICK AND FRACK ‘You Shouldn’t Have Done It’ (US Romil Records RM 1003-12C-A-1)
The sisters rap moralistically, to a murkily juddering Marley Marl-produced and scratch mixed 96⅚bpm beat, about various sex and drugs crazed acquaintances, while the more violently jerking 96⅓bpm ‘Jealous Girls‘ is yet another that quotes from ‘Tramp’ (both with dubs).

STEADY “B” ‘Cheatin’ Girl (Remix)’ (Jive JIVE T 138)
This modern rap example of a talking blues tells much the same story as ‘The Rain’, to a strolling 94½bpm beat (edit too), flipped by the tougher scratching 93bpm ‘Bring The Beat Back (Remix)‘ (inst too).

SCHOOLLY-D ‘Saturday Night’ (Flame Records MELT 4T)
Wait for the lull unbowdlerised US “X” Rated version to come out in a fortnight, as this initial UK pressing leaves out all the foulmouthed bits (and is even bleeped), the (0-)99⅚bpm sanitised rap that results being pointless.
