Free Music Notes for Disco Spectrum 1

Free Music Review: Cream of the Crop
Hit: 5 Stars

The first disc is nearly perfect, containing 8 exceptional tracks: "Bourgie Bourgie" by John Davis and the Monster Orchestra, "Let Me Down Easy" by Rare Pleasure (later covered by First Choice), "I Don't Want You Back" by Ramona Brooks, "Come Back Lover" by Fresh Band, "Feel It" by Revelation (no misnomer), "You've Got That Something" by Logg (featuring Leroy Burgess on lead vocals), "Don't Turn Your Back On Me" by the Frontline Orchestra, and the daffy semi-instrumental "In The Forest" by Baby O. Two additional tracks on disc one are good but not of the superb quality of these songs.

The second disc is less strong, containing three average rareties, two above average songs ("Que Tal America" by 2 Man Sound and "I Wanna Be Loved" by Family of Eve). Three songs are excellent. "I'll Be Your Pleasure" is a little heard Esther Williams number; "Take Some Time Out For Love" is credited to the Salsoul Orchestra but, vocals provided by Jovelyn Brown, it serves almost as an Inner Life track; and "Together Forever" by Exodus is an unusual piece, with an extended a capella intro leading to a powerful, percussive body. The weakest track on the entire set is "Trinidad" by John Gibbs, although this was a dance floor favorite in its time despite the "Love Boat" lyrics and singing. The ratio of great songs to average ones is better here than every other compilation I've found except Jumpin' 2. To have such a set of nearly lost tracks is a treasure. It is for disco and dance music lovers a bargain at 3 times the price.
