Maxine Nightingale’s Ocean of Glitter
I love glitter. I admit it. I praise it! Praise glitter. See?
But turning spiral-ish shaped thingies covered in gold glitter out of focus and with a star filter? I’m so proud of glitter after this IMPORTANT bit of video history.
Love Maxine too – always have.

It’s Always Italo Time Around Here
Enjoy “Love Is On The Rocks” ( Rhythm Stick Remix ) by Lama.
Rare and essential, this 12″ remix was a favorite of The Saint crowd.
… a Lucio Battisti cover!
Earlene Bentley – Point Of No Return
I owe this one to DJ’s Sister Dimension and Jeffrey Hinton. If you have carpeting, this track will give you a lot of static. ZAPP!
Earlene Bentley, people, a regal New York lady and the best friend of Miquel Brown! She did a duet with Sylvester. Ahkay?
Told.
Great cover. The lips are a masterpiece. Keep it simple.
Does anybody out there have the DUB VERSION? Need it. Want it. Trouble sleeping with out it.
Lorraine McKane – Let The Night Take The Blame
I can’t believe I forgot to play this at the Laforce and Stevens party at The Eagle…
This is truly classic gay disco. It’s like disco Scarlatti. The arpeggios in the breakdown bring the classical drama and the arrangement is superior. The feeling is melancholy but energized – fully alive. The lyrics encourage abandoning your concepts of your own lifetime and living only for “these few hours.” Wow. As I look at it now what seemed then to be so shallow and fleeting appears to be so deep and enduring… or am I (still) just too much?
Ladies and gentlemen, from 1984 and Beyond, Profile Records recording artist, Miss Lorraine McKane…
coming up! Earlene Bentley. And now back to your DJ, Anonymous.
Funky Nassau – Dr. Packer Reworking
Smart and Swishy PURE HIGH DISCO from DJ DiscoNRG
This DJ knows what time it is. This mix is one of the best I have heard in a long time. It’s so great to find a disco mix without the elementary disco party crap like “Shame” or “Knock On Wood.” There is no “YMCA” in this mix. “Dancing Queen” will not be found. This DJ understands this genre of Disco perfectly – his segue from the ultra insane “Romeo and Juliet” by Alec R. Constandinos into Cerrone’s “Give Me Love” is cerebral because Constandinos actually produced “Give Me Love!” I stopped on the sidewalk and threw my arms up shouting, “double-play!,” when I heard “Pride” by Grace Jones and yes there IS Amanda Lear in here.
This mix reminds me of very expensive Italian slip-ons and a whiff of fine French cologne. Easy dancing with a beautiful partner somewhere in mid-town. To me, this kind of disco is like a silk charmeuse lining – it skims over your body and heats up with a little motion. HEAVEN
Bring Me Love (The Bomb) – Andrea Mendez produced and remixed by Frankie Knuckles
The state of the house music B-side in 1985 is defined in this often forgotten Frankie scandal. The vibe, you call it “cha-cha.” These beats are causing it. Everyone is going up. The juxtaposition of the ostinato bass line against the smiling jazzy vocal lick creates an un-easy tension in your white ass. It’s “goya oh boy-a” time at the club and you are getting scared. Some ghetto puta is threatening to cut you. (Hey, bad trips were part of it too you know.) Coats are being stolen to this track. Your friends left and you’re in danger of being battled by a Ganza. All around you it’s bugged eyes and duck lips (con one eyebrow up) for some deranged modeling. “Ay lobe it too mush.” ¡Escandalo!
Frankie knew the latin rhythms inside out, backwards, upside down and around the corner into a box. Ahhkay? ¡Goza!
Now you know what everybody means when they say, “The music in the clubs was so much better then.”
