Captain Rapp ‘Bad Times (I Can’t Stand It)’ (greg wilson edit)

120 bpm

Previously limited vinyl only 2009.

With all the talk of recession during late 2008 through 2009, Captain Rapp’s ‘Bad Times’ kept running through my head, prompting the idea to put together this edit, which would be pressed  to limited vinyl as part of the Ruff Edits series, appearing as ‘Ruff Rapp’ on Ruff Edits #3. Now, with the news reporters back to warning us of a rocky road ahead, with all the social problems this might entail, it provides a topical opportunity to share it here.

Taking its lyrical cue from 1982’s seminal recording, ‘The Message’ by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five, ‘Bad Times (I Can’t Stand It)’ was a socially conscious rap that explored the issues of the day, topped off with the raw pleas of singer Kimberley Ball. Just as important though was the killer Electro-Funk groove that set the more discerning of dancefloors alight. A proper underground tune that was huge for me during the latter part of ’83 , topping my floorfillers list not long before I called time on my DJ career:
http://www.electrofunkroots.co.uk/lists/no1_floorfillers.html

This was very much a track you’d only hear if you were tuned into what was going on in the black clubs over here. Like the majority of tracks I played, I’d picked it up on import from Spin Inn, the essential shop in the North for Soul, Funk, Disco, Electro-Funk and Jazz (the elements that made up a specialist night circa ‘83). As I've said before, if you didn't buy your records at an import stockist like Spin Inn, you couldn't seriously aspire to be a black music specialist, and Spin Inn was right up there, along with an elite of shops, like Groove and City Sounds in London, shaping the course of UK club culture via the constant stream of dance music, great, good and not so good, they brought into this country.

Whereas New York was the centre of the dance universe at this time, its hybrid groove and technological experimentation pushing the music ever forward, ‘Bad Times’ was a West Coast, not East Coast  track, released on a small label out of Los Angeles called Saturn, with unknowns, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (along with Rich Cason), credited as arranging and performing (Jam & Lewis would, of course, become the most successful dance / R&B producers of the mid-late 80’s). Captain Rapp himself was Larry Earl Glenn, whose 1981 ‘Gigalo Rapp’ (by Disco Daddy & Captain Rapp) has its place in history as the first West Coast Rap 12”. 

‘Bad Times’ would be issued in the UK on the Becket label, but failed to make any real impact beyond the black scene. As such, it’s always retained its underground credentials, and a place in the hearts of black music enthusiasts with a fond ear for the early 80’s.

U're The One 4 Me (a Discobody loud shout)

New York based duo D-Train released their first single "You're The One For Me", mixed by François Kevorkian, in late 1981 on Prelude Records. It was an instant success, hitting #1 for three weeks on the U.S. Hot Disco/Dance chart in Jan 1982 and #13 on the U.S. Soul chart. It also entered the UK Pop top-30. Larry Levan hammered it and made it a determinant Paradise Garage anthem. 
Among those who sampled it over the years are N.W.A. for their 1988 “Something 2 Dance 2”, Heavy D & the Boyz for their 1991 “Swinging With Da Hevster”, Pete Rock for his 2001 “Take The D-Train” and Prodigy for their 2004 hit “Girls”. 

It’s one of my 10 all-time fave dance tracks. The beat is sizzling hot, the bassline rules, the synths are dominant, the lyrics are so inspiring and James "D. Train" Williams’s voice is fascinatingly rich, this track is perfection through and through. 
On this mix you get lots of different sounds, extra percussion/bass/bells, longer funky intro, more breaks & reformed bridges and spiritual outro. Enjoy the loud shout!

This version’s lyrics:

“Get up
Get up on the funky D-Train
Funky D-Train

Bustin' up on a cloud, shout out loud 
You're the one for me 
With your love by my side 
The world will be mine 
You're the one for me

With this true love I found 
Picks my feet up off the ground to fly away 
With this true love my dear 
Takes away my every fear, don't go away 

You just don't know what you did to me 
But I'm not the same 
Since you gave me 
Love that's sheltered from the rain 

You just don't know how you make me feel 
Your sweet lovin', girl, is so unreal 
I've got love, love desire 
From your lovin' my soul's on fire 

Bustin' up on a cloud, shout out loud 
You're the one for me 
With your love by my side 
The world will be mine 
You're the one for me

You're the one for me, yeah 
Ooohhh, the one for me
I got to stand on up for your love
I got to stand up
For your love
Yeaaahooo!

I'm ridin' on a cloud 
Got to shout it out loud, you're my all 
Baby, hold on tight 
For the rest of my life, don't let me fall 

You just don't know what you did to me 
But I'm not the same 
Since you gave me 
Love that's sheltered from the rain 
You just don't know, no, how you make me feel 
Your sweet lovin', girl, is so unreal 
I've got love, love desire 
From your lovin' my soul's on fire

Bustin' up on a cloud, shout out loud 
You're the one for me 
With your love by my side 
The world will be mine 
You're the one for me 

With the love I have inside of me 
We can turn this world around 
We can live through all eternity 
And we'll never touch the ground 
We'll take a chance to ride upon a star 
To a place that's far away 
The light of love will shine on us 
Forever and a day 

You're the one for me, yeah 
Ooohhh, the one for me

Get up on the funky D-Train

With the love I have inside of me 
We can turn this world around 
We can live through all eternity 
And we'll never touch the ground 
We'll take a chance to ride upon a star 
To a place that's far away 
The light of love will shine on us 
Forever and a day”
