Presuming that you were born, Hed Kandi remind you what you were doing in 1989 with a brimful of feelgood club classics from the year just prior to everything going wild when house was still credible and rave hadn’t yet thrown its upsizing scatter bomb into fields and warehouses everywhere. CD 1 has all the dancefloor friendly piano-house anthems from Ceybil Jeffries, Pamela Fernandez, Li’l Louis & The Fog whilst CD 2 plots a course through rare and inspirational kick-ass disco including the source-code for the Bucketheads’ 1995 class ride, The Bomb courtesy of unlikely 70s groovers, ‘Chicago’ on ‘Street Player’.
Other acts include: Inner City, Pamela Fernandez, The Fog, Ten City, Colourblind, The Brand New Heavies, Ceybil Jeffries, Neneh Cherry, A Tribe Called Quest, Sugarbear, Sister Sledge and Skipworth & Turner.
Everybody will have their own memories of 1989. Me, I was retaking my English Literature A Level for the third time in as many years. But try sticking that on an album.
