WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
VARIOUS: ‘Manhattan No.1’ (US Disco Sampler SW57).
Green vinyl pressed purportedly in the US but British looking and sounding. This 12in “special” disco mixer begins not very usefully at 121bpm with Lipps Inc ‘How Long’ before finally reaching such as ‘Just A Groove’, ‘Celebration’, ‘Love Festival’, ‘Rapp Payback’. None of the mix being anything special at all, ending with ‘Masterblaster’ and Bob Marley’s ‘Jammin’ at 128bpm. For avid collectors only.
