Grace Jones – New 12" SingleSpeaking of Grace Jones, her new 12-inch single is here! A double-sided gem, both tracks are strong, reminiscent of her earlier hits like "I've Seen That Face Before" and "Pull Up to the Bumper." Grace is in top form, and success is guaranteed.https://youtu.be/L2KFRyTjDm0?si=6sTJGhQnTE7VxkmF
Gwen GuthrieThe third disco single from Gwen Guthrie has just arrived! It's from her criminally underrated album. Gwen, a powerhouse singer and a competitor to Grace Jones at Island Records, is one of the most promising talents of the decade.While the disco hit "It Should Have Been You" dominated dance floors abroad, it didn't take off in the Netherlands due to limited airplay. Her new (remix) singles "Peek-A-Boo" and "For You" are must-haves.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAwahWPb6aE&pp=ygUbZ3dlbiBndXRocmllIGl0IHNob3VsZCAxOTgy

As always with Patrick, expect perfect arrangements.Paul Parker joins the fun again, this time on "Tech-No-Logical World," a fantastic track with New Wave elements, superb vocals, and a hypnotic effect.
