DANCIN WITH MELBA [CD]

Now remastered for the first time on CD with a bonus track, Dancin With Melba isn't just a long awaited treat for Moore fans and disco fanatics, but it might come as a revelation to a younger generation of fans turned on by classic dance sounds and willing to listen to disco with open minds and ears. When the compilation Dancin With Melba was originally issued at the height of the disco boom in 1979, Melba Moore was already a favorite of the disco scene. Songs like Standing Right Here and Promised Land were guaranteed to pack dance floors at legendary nightspots like Flamingo and The Paradise Garage, yet the original mixes simply weren't long enough to fuel the transcendent, marathon dance floor sessions that led many a clubber to disco heaven. Enter the 6 extended cuts that comprise Dancin With Melba, re-mixed by the late Richie Rivera an unsung hero from the now mythic underground New York disco scene that spawned legends like the late Larry Levan and Nicky Siano, to name a few. Limited edition of 2,000.
