Description
Groovin’ have been relentless with their quality house and disco reissues.. this time we’re happy to be able to offer (for a much lower sum!) a 1989 classic released originally on Chicago’s Gherkin Jerks label.
While the original mixes of Gallifre’s Larry Heard co-produced ’89 deep house groover were naturally superb, it was always this remix 12″ that the majority of DJs reached for. That’s because it contained a pair of brilliant Frankie Knuckles remixes in his distinctively luscious, loved-up style.
As this timely reissue proves, these reworks have lost none of their allure. The Knuckles’ “Club Remix”, which is built around warm and tactile analogue bass, rich chords and Mondee Oliver’s sublime vocal, is undoubtedly the stronger of the two for club plays, though the shorter “Dream Remix”, with its rush-inducing ambient sections and nod towards contemporaneous Italian deep house, is arguably even better. Simply essential.
