Synopsis

Album Description
Available on CD, cassette and limited edition triple vinyl (via DJ specialty shops) this is a compilation of nine tracks remixed (between 1979 and 1982) by Larry Levan, the DJ behind New Yorks famously influential nightclub, The Paradise Garage. Levan is a producer and remixer who, though he died in 1992, continues to be cited as one of the industrys greatest and most revered. Each of the nine individual full-length tracks was DIGITALLY REMASTERED specifically for this project. The sound quality is brilliant! A supporting series of classic West End Records 12" vinyl singles are being released to compliment this album in the signature West End Records hot pink New York City skyline jackets. The compilation comes complete with comprehensive liner notes giving the labels history, its relationship with Levan and anecdotes about each of the nine remixes and how each came about.
 

CD Reviews

A MUST HAVE
yassine ghalem | New York City | 11/26/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Everybody knows how much the legendary DJ Larry Levan influcenced every Dj since. Even greatest are his remixes. Larry's true genius is in what he did in the studio. I can listen to some of his best studio mixes 100 times in a row and catch something new every time that validates what a genius he was. All the classics from west end are here : Taana Gardner (Heartbeat ultra classic), Let's go dancin', is it all over my face... A TRUE MUST for all house/garage heads."
It's the Bomb...what else can you say????
