    Esiste un LP originale

      Dunno if anyone cares about this, but I'd like to mention that the intro for track A4 "Give Up The Funk (Let's Dance)" is sampled on "Step Back In Time" by Kylie Minogue on the "Rhythm of Love" album.

              Album essential for all lover of dance music. On rare occasions a same album has been inspired by as many productions as it has been. In its having to fit the groove plus Disco and the most House, hence the latter genre has been the most drunk of it. Excellent.
