Roberta Flack - Uh-Uh Ooh-Ooh Look Out (Here It Comes)

I bought this record thinking Hurley's remix would make this a 1988 house classic. Contrary to popular opinion, I didn't find myself enjoying Hurley's remix much; the vocals weren't great and poorly meshed with the track and I found myself thinking it was a pretty boring track.

I listened to the flip side and found Arthur Baker's dub remix to be a better substitute for the deep garage house I was expecting from Steve Hurley with sparse vocals backed behind a combination of Chicago house rhythms and deep garage effects. By no means does it make the record a classic, but it saved the vinyl in my opinion.

Brilliant mix by Hurley here, sampled by Lee Marrow on 'Movin'. Cut up vocals, padded out with some metal sounding fx, over a nicely programmed beat, expertly arranged too by the master. Add to that Roberta Flack's sweet sweet voice and dreamy lyrics, all time favourite for me. Oh yeah, did I mention Quincy Jones?!
