I decided to pull 5 random records blindly from my collection & share them with you!

1.  Latin & Lethal-Cuties (We Got’em)-Cut It Up Records

A great Bass label (look for it, remember it, you visual beast) and not as popular for sure.  Don’t have a link for you to listen (sorry).  If you don’t know this about me already I am a HUGE bass fan let alone a big Miami Bass collector.  FYIEYYYY.

2. Herbie Hancock- Ready or Not/You Bet Your Love 12″

Herbie Hancock – You Bet Your Love

Herbie Hancock-Ready or Not

3.  Miquel Brown-So Many Men-So Little Time

Not fully committed to disco or Hi NRG on the cusp in between both eras.  When I first bought this I thought (and prayed) for a gay anthem sung by a man…and it was a gay anthem of the time, however, Miquel is a lady.  I wasn’t disappointed tho.

4.  Rofo-Flashlight

Deeper into legitimate and clearer sound of Hi NRG comes Rofo.  Total raspy voice of those 80s singers in all the John Hughe’s films…cept he’s italian.  So yea, this falls into italo disco too.  Cool.

5.  Stan Getz-Big Band Bossa Nova

A treasured gift from a friend who first showed me around a radio station control room 13+ years ago.  Had it on CD for awhile & he dug this up.  Obviously this isn’t a dance single just a full collection of open your windows in the Summer & let the cool breeze roll in.  There has to be a little sweat tho…maybe a mojito.  Heck, I’ll take one if you don’t.
