the patented lab review

lab informed suggestions

There arenâ€™t many heavier, more sought after albums for the deep disco head than this 1978 classic from the reservoirs of Patrick Adams and "Red&" Greg Carmichael. The big cut on here is undoubtedly "It Ain't No Big Thing," which has been floating around on bootleg for a few years, and was the subject of a nice Danny Krivit edit (only on Japanese import, sorry!). Beyond those credentials, "No Big Thing" is a superb soulful dance tune with grown folk lyrics delivered by a sweet but world-wise female vocal, a subgenre of disco that New York City seemed to excel at in the late '70s (see Cory Daye, Norma Jean, Sylvia Striplin, etc). I first heard this bittersweet masterpiece years ago in a set from DJ Clark Kent, a subtle tip of the kangol to the days when hip hop and disco were two sides of the same coin. Dig the rhythm guitar, one note never sounded so funky! The title track is the original version of a cut that was to become one of Larry Levan's key remixes and a Paradise Garage classic when Jocelyn Brown and Inner Circle recut it. Another Patrick Adams anthem is included here, "I'm a Love Bug," a track that was also redone on a couple releases by Bumblebee Unlimited (dig deep people!). The remaining tunes, "Mr. Blindman" and "Do As I Do" (with an orgasmic breakdown that would put Donna Summer to shame) are in a similar mold, but when the form is this elegant who needs variation?
