Rare Italo 12"s in the morning just make my day. Today's selection comes from Dark Entries italo reissue series, this time featuring International Music System's rare Emergency Records 12" "Dancing Therapy." This one's a bit of a crossover jam fused with synth pop and new wave (maybe even freestyle!), with kind of a "Bizarre Love Triangle" vibe which is never a bad thing. Seeing how it was released 2 years prior to New Order's hit, could it be that they influenced it the 80's giant? One could only wonder... Good luck finding this one in the field and prepare to pay well over a $100 if you do, so cop this and play often. Also features "Love Games" on the flip. Top notch remastered reissue with replica pic sleeve.
