This might be the best italo-disco record that I own. Compared to other italo records - which mostly have a vocal and instrumental version of one song - this one provides 2 brilliant and totally different songs. I just can't decide which one is the best of the two, "Livin' Up" is the more melancholic song but it nevertheless has quite a funky synthline and superb vocals. "Stop" is the floor burner with it's superb fat bass and simple, yet effective synthline which will make your body move instantly. I think the (short) vocals only appear two times in the beginning of the song, the remaining +/- 3 minutes are pure instrumental funkiness. Hard to find but well worth the effort. Timeless. A true gem. 5/5

It's not an error that this release has so many 5/5 votes. It's also not an error that so many people want this 12". "Livin' Up"/"Stop" by B.W.H. is probably one of the most powerful and influential italo disco releases of all time. It's no wonder that such a great set of songs is so hard-to-find - that's because we're talking about an extremely limited release, and you know how it goes: the best stuff is always the hardest to find! "Livin' Up" is a dark and very deep electro italo track, while "Stop" has that uplifting, happy synth-line added to it, more suitable for the dancefloor. Both songs have great female vocals and an excellent drumbeat. Both songs are synthesizer fantasies and go well for the breakdancer in you or for whatever purpose you can imagine. A++
