Review by mzkbx Mar 03, 2009
This is the kind of record I called "forgotten & underrated", that's a mistake and if you can find this, you will discover a real "boombastic" disco tune : "He's My Ding Dong Man", this track is just so smooth, so cool, so fresh. A perfect bassline, pops & bells are swinging on the melody, the vocals are perfectly measured, the kind of track you can play on an open summer floor.
Showdown is more in a funky way, it's a good dancefloor track but this is not the big sensation of this record, the only interest is the break with his freaky synth.
