A delightful re-working of an iconic Curtis Mayfield track, The Sisters Love’s 1973 proto-disco classic is an earthy and passionate rare-groove corker.

Complete with rolling drum licks, flirty flutes and a sexy simmering bassline, The Sisters’ funky soul classic will have you groovin’ all throughout Valentine’s Day and with Danny Krivit’s 1981 extended re-edit, you’ve got eight glorious minutes of pure pleasure.

The Sisters Love – Give Me Your Love

It sure is Paul. It sure is.  Anyway….

I’m off to Berlin for a few days, so to soften the blow here’s a easy-listening disco song for ya from light-music composer/conductor Paul Mauriat .  

Best known for his version of Andre Popp’s ‘Love Is Blue’, this  is the 1973 ’disco’ version.  When Salsoul featured it on their ‘Salsoul Disco Boogie: Super Hits For Non-Stop Dancing’ in 1977, its place in disco history was kinda assured.  The long version is less cheesy than the original, with more emphasis on percussion and melody. Its easy to see why it became a favourite on the dancefloor.

Enjoy the sunshine folks and I’ll see you next week!
