Larry Levan The Definitive Salsoul Mixes’78-‘83

If you really want to begin to understand what all the fuss is about, when it comes to the names Larry Levan, Salsoul, and the Paradise Garage, then look no further than this compilation…
In a world where everyone’s an expert, this comprehensive double cd selection of mixes and productions, by the original DJ superstar / remixer, will leave you nothing short of being one yourself, and is a must for any Salsoul lover.
The names Jocelyn Brown, The Salsoul Orchestra, First Choice, Loleatta Holloway, Aurra, Leroy Burgess, Steve Arrington, The Jimmy Castor Bunch, and Instant Funk might ring bells, but listen to this, and them bells gonna rock.

Larry Levan mixed it all up at the Paradise Garage from 1977 until 1987 – and seeing as this edition only covers 1978-1983, youll do well to scope out anything else that bears his name!

Hats off to the man from del-sussd
