DJ in semi retirement! Avid record collector and music lover. All the vinyl shopping unearths a few duplicate gems so I will put a few up for sale here and there. I've been buying and selling on ebay for many years, please search for steveoptix to see my feedback.

This is a gorgeous slice of folky chillage, which I'm definitely going be dropping out this summer!

Freaky Blue, what a track, Balearic AF! Cheap as chipped potatoes too!
|
|
An absolute corker of a cut, a beautiful track and superb vocal!
|
|
Solid chunky house business with a corking little acapella DJ tool to boot!

Just got the re-issue, listen to the comments, the sound quality isn't there, buy the oriignal.

Severe clipping, real shame, absolutely gutted, not happy at all
|
|
|
Awful quality, I complained to the seller - a very well known UK shop - and they just told me to take it up with the label!
|
|
Why cut vinyl from a dodgy AF cassette! Great tunes but the majority sounds rough as hell :-(
|
|
|
|
What is the time signature on A2! An absolute git to mix, match the tempo no probs, but no phrase mixing here! Shame because it’s a bloody good track but off putting when it won’t go in the flow. As a 3 tracker though all three cuts are awesome, post...

B1 and B2 both have too much distortion though :-(
|
|
|
Wouldn’t bother, it appears to have badly mastered for the re-press
|
|
|
Serious sound quality/mastering issues on my copy, especially the vocals :-(
|
|
Just had a thought though, I had this on pre-order for many months, there were a number of delays to pressing because of sound quality not being there on the first two press runs, maybe these have got into circulation?
|

My copy's perfect, played it out and on radio a number of times
|
|
Yes! I held it under my wife's nose, not as appreciative as me!
In all seriousness though what a track! Balearic disco reggae dub vibes! And the flip side also very usable :-) |
|
|
|
Interesting idea, disco from around the world. Side one is brilliant, disco from NY, Afro Disco and Eastern Disco, side two absolute rubbish! You don't put bagpipes on disco, just no!
|
|
Contains the beautiful Balearic masterpiece that is Flying Cloud. Recommend buying two copies so that when spinning out on the beach at sunset you can roll the over and over.......
|
|
For me this is all about Maguma - a beautiful slice of deep house, lovely bass, dreamy lines and smooth white isle grooves
|
|
Is this the track that Washed Out - 'Feel It All Around' sampled?
|
|
Worth every penny for just Love The Way You Love Me! I’ve played this track out so many times, works with disco, Balearic, boogie, funk, chill out, amazing little piece ☺️
|
|
Original is fantastic, Beat Broker dub also very handy if you want to use this in a lower tempo Balearic set :-)
|
|
Same for my copy, real shame, lovely track, a waste of a production if the vinyl’s not mastered properly :-(
|
|
Fantastic tunes, pressed on a ridiculously thin piece of vinyl though!
|
|
Surely the fact that this sounds ridiculously like a Bee Gees vocal and the record is called Blue Gas (B.G.) This must be an obscurely sourced Bee Gees vocal?!
|
|
Glad I read your comments James, I've got the 2 on 1 copy of Don't Stop and have been dropping it for a few years, I had this LP on my 'wants' on the strength of that track - Now removed from my list :-)
|
|
Just bought it, cheers fella! It’s a gutter that Discogs stopped making these releases, and many others, available for sale here, all the other vinyl resell sites don’t give two hoots if it’s an official release or not, it’s a marketplace!

Cheers fella, I’ve got the Enforcers disk in my collection and had heard that piano line before The Gift came out but always thought The Alliance sampled it from elsewhere :-)
Was kind off hoping there was more of that beautiful piano somewhere else! |
|
Sorry, pretty sure it’s not. I’m talking about Alkalino - Day By Day? ‘I don’t want anything that looks at you’ ‘Tell the whole wide world, that I’, not yo man’? Is the track order wrong? Coincidence that NYM could be an acronym for ‘Not your man’?...

Where’s the vocal from on B1 please? Word, word. Word
|
|
Poor pressing, grooves too shallow, no bass and very distorted vocals, played out a couple of times as I love ‘Feel It All Around’ but sounds too bad. Badly mastered.
|

Live mix is a nice slice of soulful - almost jazz like in its delivery - house music.

This is a superb album, re-press sounds great to me, played the vinyl on radio and live and no issues with quality. Beautiful Mediterranean vibes, transports you to another place entirely, goes with Balearic, Electronica, disco, pure nostalgic sounds :-)
|

I purchased this for Baby Come Home, every other track is a bonus!
Feelgood sunshine vibes, friendly, warming, beautiful. Artwork is good but not why I purchased this album! |
