Any secret weapons to sure?
I mean stuff like this: MARY J. BLIGE (Sure Is Pure)
MC HAMMER (Tenaglia Mix)
DINA CARROLL (I’ve got several Dina mixes I play) (Tony Humphries Mix)
SELENA (Morales Dub)
LISA STANSFIELD (Morales Dub)
TAKE THAT (Joey Negro obviously inspired by Italo-house on this one)

That reminds me… the 1989 Dancin’ Danny D remix of the Chaka Kahn version. A High On Hope classic:

From 1990, Junior Vasquez remix of a fantastic song written by Prince for Mavis Staples:
This MK mix of little known Canadian singer on Warner Bros was massive for me in the mid 90s, but I never heard it anywhere else
Bjork had a few in the 90’s, so many 12’s and CD singles, I still find a few nuggets once in a while that I hadn’t heard before.

I’ve played that a lot over the years, good call.
V nice, Tim, never heard of that and I thought I was an MK fan!

If you’re from New York, you’ll probably know this, but it’s not v well known in the UK, unless you go to Low Life (in which case you’ll definitely know it).

Another I used to play a lot. Basically a superior Chic cut-up.

I played this to death at the time. I still dig it out now and again.

Just been released digitally. So found through Spotify recommendation. New to me. It’s ace.
No dub unfortunately, but super F. Knuckles sounding. Down tempo, Balearic-leaning house groove. Love it.

Shep Pettibone mixes of Michael McDonald from 1990. The stuttered vocal samples at the start sound very dated now but its a great song. Probably worth an edit between the main mix and dubs.
