WHAT THE D.J. NEWS INSERT HAD TO SAY ABOUT THE MEGAMIX ON THIS RELEASE:
If you think that you're confused about the fusion contusion, pity poor Valapucci. He can't speak a word of English, yet faithfully reads all of the trades… disco is dead, disco is alive… rock lives, new wave doesn't cut it… the new sound is here… etc. So we asked Valapucci to take some great tracks which would turn on sleeze lovers to rock, and perhaps get some rock lovers to taste sleeze. Valapucci has created a real crossover, from The Anvil to Heat. It's fun, high-energy music which shows that no matter what label you put on a great song, it's really the song which counts in the end.
SIDE B MIX: PERMANENT WAVE MEDLEY
MIXED BY: Valapucci
LENGTH: 20:43
GENRE: Disco/Pop
TRACKS I CAN IDENTIFY IN THE MIX - I have only listed the ones that have prolonged elements or have a short sample repeated multiple times:
Le Prix - You Really Got Me (1980); Phil Festa - Lightning Strikes (1980); Wiz - No Matter What (Without You) (1979); True Confessions - Give Him A Great Big Kiss (1979); Elton Motello - Jet Boy Jet Girl (1978)
This release also has another track on it that isn't a megamix.
SIDE A:
I FEEL LOVE The Patrick Cowley Megamix - Donna Summer
