Liquid Gold – Dance Yourself Dizzy

Posted in Liquid Gold on August 18th, 2009 by H Bradley

Liquid Gold was formed by Ray Knott and Ellie Hope, who had met auditioning to play in Babe Ruth, a group that released four albums between 1972 and 1975. Both of them worked on the band’s last album, Kid Stuff. They then recruited Wally Rothe (who is currently in a relationship with Loose Women presenter Jane McDonald) and Syd Twynham under the name Dream Coupe; after a few shows they signed to Creole Records, a Polo Records subsidiary, and changed their name to Liquid Gold.
Their first single, “Anyway You Do It”, was released in October 1978. It narrowly missed the UK Top 40, peaking at No41, but resulted in their being transferred to Polo for their next release, “My Baby’s Baby”. A remixed version of the song was concurrently released by Parachute Records in the U.S. and became a hit, reaching #5 on the US Club Play charts and #45 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1979. Despite their success in America, however, they never toured the U.S..
In England, their next single was “Mr. Groovy”, which did not chart; it was quickly followed with “Dance Yourself Dizzy”, which became their biggest English hit, peaking at #2 on the UK charts in 1980. The song also reached #26 on the U.S. Club Play charts.
“Synth and Strings”, a 1999 chart hit by Yomanda was based around a sample from “Dance Yourself Dizzy”.

Tamperer feat Maya – Feel It 2009

Posted in Michael Jackson, Tamperer on August 18th, 2009 by H Bradley

The Tamperer featuring Maya was an Italian-American dance music group consisting of Italian record producers Mario Fargetta and Alex Farolfi, and American singer Maya Days. Later, Giuliano Saglia and GianLuca Mensi would join the project. In 1998 they became famous for their debut single “Feel It”, a UK number one hit single taken from their album Fabulous. “Feel it” was written by the American team of Steve Gittelman and Jim Dyke and relied heavily on a sample of the Jacksons hit “Can You Feel It”.
The album spawned two more singles, “If You Buy This Record Your Life Will Be Better” (based on a sample from Madonna’s “Material Girl”), and the Italy-only release “Step Out”, which was later included as a B-side on their fourth and final single, “Hammer to the Heart” (based on a sample from Abba’s “Gimme Gimme Gimme”).

Diana Ross – Chain Reaction Remixes

Posted in Diana Ross on August 17th, 2009 by H Bradley

“Chain Reaction” is a song by Diana Ross, written by the Bee Gees, who also provided the backing vocals for the single. The track was released on the album Eaten Alive in 1985 and as a single the following year.
The single became her first number 1 single in the UK since I’m Still Waiting in 1971. The song also reached number 1 in Australia and was the top selling single of the year (1986) in that country. The song fared less well in the USA where it initially peaked at number 95 on the Billboard Hot 100 late in 1985. A few months later, a remixed version of the song was issued as a single (Ross performed this version of the song on the American Music Awards, which she hosted that year). The new version re-entered the chart and performed better, but with the diminished momentum, it stalled at number 66.
