 "Ain't Nothin Like Makin Love" by Sir John Roberts from Sophisticated Funk Orchestra

Hello Chimney's, how are you ? Today is free over here in Germany because of the german reunion ! So this means Mitch does not feel extremely well this morning, because he looked too deep into the beer pin, crossed to white wine, continued to Prossecco, returned to shots and finished with Wodka Tonic.... Why am i telling you this ? To be honest - no idea ! But i have a little present for you, and i hope you like it. Yesterday i listened to the John Roberts LP on Venture again, which i had not been doing for quite a long time. Nice solid LP but this very one track made my day ! To be honest, i consider this one as my fav song at the moment ! I told my girl when i creeped home last night: "Ain't Nothin Like Makin Love" but somehow she disagreed (-:

 "Love is the only Answer" by Spread Love- the disco vibrator aka Mitch (-: from Existed only in my dreams...

Something very nostalgic today !
Our Microwave kinda exploded yesterday, i am alive but i had to get my old one from the attic of my parents house today...
Blazing story, but why am i telling you this ?
Well, when i today made my way up the dusty attic, it happended that i found an old Box that stored several cd's without cover in it, for which i had been looking for years now. Those are the only relicts of my musical carreer- Yes little Mitch was dreaming of becoming a famous House producer nearly 10 years ago when Dimitri still spun his Abba records and Phat's and Small started to dream about covering Eric Mathew songs (-:
Hey - what's wrong with you, you looking kinda down to me...
Well you all know how Disco Filtered House was blowing up mainstream those days then...
My Equipment was poor, i had the first Emu Sampler, used Cubase on a slow machine and had an very oldshool looking Yamaha 8 Channel Deck for the mixdown... Did not know how to play synth, but i had my records of course.
Damn i don't know how many nights i spent looking for the right drum sounds from Funk records, the right loops from disco 12" and for the perfect 2-Key -range samples till i thought i had a potential burner (-:
Now almost 8 years later, it gave me a strange thrill when i listened to my old works again.
How can one be so silly, to forget everything around him and sit for one week i a dark cellar room dreaming of becoming a star ?
Well i guess : Love is the only Answer

 "Sure Shot" by Tracy Weber from None 12" only

Today something for ya feet again !
I am sure many of you know, but since it has not made it's way to the chimney yet, i thought i give it a try...
It is among my top 5 dance records ever made, so i hope you can feel it.
It was a favourite of Levan, and this is speaking for itself in my opinion.
Plus a little "Youtube" bonus, that prooves, that even serious pop stars from today can give it up to a Levan bassline (-:
Please survive at least to the chorus in the youtube clip, then you will see what i mean !

 "New York, New York" by Starship Orchestra from Celestial Sky

Something mellow this morning... Never been there, but this song makes me wanna check it out ! Tell me, is there really such mellowness in this city that never sleeps (-:
Brainchild behind Starship Orchestra is Norman Connors and i actually bought this LP back in the days because of the alternative version of "You're a star", though the version on the Aquarian Dream "Fantasy" LP is somehow more apealing to me...
Anyway, i was blown away by this track, what a nice turn in style, if you check out the first bars...
Donald Bird goes Sting - well something like that al least (-:
New York, New York

 "Could heaven ever be like this" by Idris Muhammad from Turn This Mutha Out

Inspired by Clunkified's Muhammad post, i thought another Idris track will do good as a weekend opener...
I always loved this track, though it is a pitty that it hasn't a bit more power in the bass and drums !
So i hope ya all have a fine time tonight and ask yourself Could heaven ever be like this

 "I Bet'cha" by Butch Dayo from 12" only Track

Going Oldschool today again, this time with one of my alltime boogie favs from Butch Dayo. It is the same Butch that had out two LP's out with Vaughan Mason (Bounce, Rollerskate...) but though i cannot really enjoy Bounce anymore, i never get tired of playing this one !
Actually Butch could have left the Sax in the beginning at the wall, but who cares if the rest blows one away !
Hope you enjoy, i mean I Bet'cha

 "High / And so on" by Peter Moesser's Music from non LP Track

Sorry for staying away so long, but just like i posted at thunderballs last track, no time for anything...
But i try to come back with a nice one, and i hope you like it.
The recording is actually a A-side/ B-side Medley from this very rare and unknown 1977 Ariola 7" that was produced by Peter Moesser and Harold Faltermeyer back in Munich that time.
Moesser had some others realeases but to my knowledge this was his only trip to space, unfortunately !
So please pump up your speakers and enjoy (-:

 "Kameleon Medley (-:" by Kameleon from Kameleon

Hi Chimneys,
haven't been posting for quite a time, but here we go...
I had this as a secret in my last auctions, but i thought my chimney brother should be the first to know (-:
People were going mad about this one, and i really like it too.
Very little can be found about this LP, Kameleon had been a group of Quebec Students who put out one LP on which they really freaked out.
It is on a label called Pro-Culture, don't know any other releases of that label
It really has many facets, so i thought i give you a medley.
Sometimes Rinder & Lewis like, sometimes more like Supersempfft, well just listen...
There are still a few copies flying around at the well known marketplaces, i guess because nobody has it on screen so far...
Get Freaky

 "I'm Always Dancin' To The Music" by Benny Golson from I'm Always Dancin' To The Music

I love hits an steps...
When i am listening to this I'm Always Dancin' To The Music
Actually i was never too deep into Golson's music, cause i never had been too deep into Jazz and Sax music.
But the cover of this LP made me curious, i took a listen and loved it. Also very impressive line up :
Backing Vocals - Maxine Willard Waters* Bass - David Shields Drums - James Gadson Guitar - Bernorce Blackman* , Dennis Budimir , Ray Parker Jr. Keyboards - Bobby Lyle , John Barnes Percussion - Paulinho Da Costa Producer - Benny Golson , George Butler Synthesizer - Michael J. Boddicker
