Warp 9 - Light Years Away
Warp 9 - Light Years Away - Prism Records - 1983
Another one of my favorite Electro records, and without a doubt way ahead of its time. You could even say it was light years away.
Hashim - Primrose Path
Hashim - Primrose Path - Cutting Records - 1986
It was always going to be hard for Hashim to follow his earlier tracks but that said I still have fond memories of hearing this on the Mike Allen show.
Marley Marl Featuring Mc Shan - Marley Marl Scratch
Marley Marl Featuring Mc Shan - Marley Marl Scratch - NIA Records - 1985
Classic drum machine patterns and scratches along with dope rhymes from Queens Bridge legend MC Shan.
You will often see both label variants of this, one that credited MC Shan as "DJ Shan" and the one below that has the correct credit to "MC Shan"

Crash Crew - On The Radio
Crash Crew - On The Radio - Sugar Hill Records -1983
Can you believe the lyrics in the opening lines
"we got a melody that's a sure enough smash"
Maybe they should have said
"we stole a melody that's a sure enough smash"
For those that don't know its claimed the music for this single was lifted or replayed from the Fantasy three record "Its Your Rock"
