WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
NOSTALCIA: ‘Break Down’ (US Alto PI 022).
Dynamite bootleg 12in mixer weaves in and out and around a much speeded up Kurtis Blow ‘The Breaks’ in early 118bpm stages before hitting 122bpm during a climax that includes Stacy Lattisaw hits and Young & Co. You’re gonna love it, as this one’s a real goodie! It’s especially useful now as there are so many current funkers around the same BPM for mixing.
